CDog Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 I just started playing this game and haven't put much time into it. I was in the secret garden in the first area and found a shiny rattata and spinarak within 20 min of each other. I would like to know if the chance to encounter shinys is the same as the official games or if it's new player luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developers Voctrode Posted April 2, 2013 Developers Share Posted April 2, 2013 I'm not sure what the exact shiny rate is now, but it is raised quite substantially for the Reborn Game.Well done, though! Shiny Spinirak is adorable <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Ikaru Posted April 2, 2013 Administrators Share Posted April 2, 2013 It is indeed much higher than the official games, but I don't know the exact rate either; that's all Amethyst's domain. Also agreed, Ariados is one of my lesser-used favorites so that's a good find, I think c: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Amethyst Posted April 2, 2013 Administrators Share Posted April 2, 2013 The original shiny rate is about 3/65500 Reborn's is 700/655whatever So, they're still quite rare, but it's actually reasonable to expect to see a few now. Finding two so close together is definitely a feat of luck. Good job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diana Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Actually, the official game's shiny rate is 1/8172, or something pretty close to that. Either way, well done on both within such a small time period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should increase the pokerus chance though. At least a little. Edited April 4, 2013 by chuckles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maelstrom Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 It's like feebas, ain't no one got time fo dat. At least pokerus is contagious. Imagine shiny as a slightly contagious albinism related condition. lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
