    the absolute dumbest change to shinies is how you're pretty much 100% guaranteed to get one with just a half hour of fishing

        @fuzzypony if you fish in the same spot without failing a reel-in (too early, too late, not even a nibble etc), after somewhere in the 60+ range I think you're odds are really good

          @rarity Probably works about the same as chaining with the Pokeradar, by the time you reach 40 you're at a 1/200 odd of a shiny.

            @fuzzypony People say you fish on shiny spots, being close to a place where you can't move helps cause apparently moving breaks the chain too.

      @rarity I've been doing that and I've yet to get a shiny. I've NEVER SEEN A SHINY EVER. ;_;

        @minti it's too bad gen 2 can't trade with gen 3 or I'd be able to make any of the pokemon in gen 2 shiny and trade it up

          @pony Gen2 shinies are not Gen3 shinies by default. As Gen2 shinies are a predetermined match of IV's that make a pokemon shiny. In Gen3 however the math/logic behind shinies changed

            @critialcloudkicker yeah, and as I understand the two gens are incompatible completely. no trading between them :(
