RedSinger Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 So, after realizing a lot of shiny Pokemon in trainer cards, some even containing multiple, and encountering a shiny early on myself, I have one question: Is the shiny chance increased in this game? Or are some people just incredibly lucky? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BreezyPonie Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I read somewhere it was a 1% chance, but I'm not certain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farnsworth Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 The shiny chance is indeed increased. I don't know what it is exactly (maybe 1/100?). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleDevilex Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 It is increased, a lot I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 The shiny chance is ridiculously higher in this game than in standard pokemon games. How much of an increase percentage wise? (iuhno) But it is a lot higher i.e if you soft reset for your starter, you probably wont be there for 3 hours till you get a shiny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infel Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 The shiny chance is 700/65536 by default. I may or may not have looked directly in the scripts. So a 1.068% chance. Roughly ~1.1%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight_Teutonic Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 There was a topic about shiny rates somewhere in the forum where Ame herself said that the shiny pokemon encounter rate was about ♎1/700. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Mewdeon ft Dan Punk Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 The shiny chance is 700/65536 by default. I may or may not have looked directly in the scripts. So a 1.068% chance. Roughly ~1.1%. late, but this is the case. compare this amount to the shiny rate in canonical games, which in the 6th generation is 16/65536, so ours is significantly higher. (about ~44x as much.) There was a topic about shiny rates somewhere in the forum where Ame herself said that the shiny pokemon encounter rate was about ♎1/700. ... make that ♎44x I like this symbol.
