The shinies really do seem to be hit or miss with the luck on them. Sometimes I can get loads and loads and then it can be weeks before one.

Also I’m really busy at our local theatre these next few weeks so I’m running out of people to send gifts to when I’m there. If there’s anyone who doesn’t have me (unicorngirlSooz) then my code is 7071 2330 6230

I can’t always send as sometimes I’m stuck in the house nowhere near a stop but when I’m working at the theatre I can send to all my friends every day. 😁

Request sent

My code is 113733301621. I made quite a few friends through this group a few years back. I'm definitely playing more casually now and lost the habit for a couple of years.

I've had a couple of hundos and shinies recently which perk my interest up. The Dynamax battles are easy to do solo too. I got a bit fed up when the local community had rifts affecting raiding groups and it became hard to get Legendaries and the game was feeling very monotonous. I've been on Level 44 for a couple of years.

@ISaySteadyOn- it’s just a wee am dram theatre so no pay but still lots of work. I’m wardrobe mistress and our upcoming play is Calendar Girls (we open on Thursday so it’s all the last minute things for me to sort out). For a show about women taking their clothes off there are actually a LOT of changes for them all. It’s taken me hours and hours over the last two days to iron everything. 🙈 We have our own building though unlike some other am dram groups who have to rent out space, so it’s great to head there and just hang out with the ghosts for a few hours. 😁

Thanks @Purpletoes- and I’m more than happy for them to add me too. 🙂

VeryNearlyLegendary · 11/04/2025 22:01

The shinies do seem very hit and miss, I got several in quick succession a few weeks ago, but this event has been pretty rubbish for me (so far).

I find whenever I get a shiny or perfect, I immediately get 2 or 3, then none for ages.

Purpletoes · 11/04/2025 21:44

I have been a bit quiet but have been plodding away. I quite like this event so far been good for my shiny rate. A remoraid and a ducklett 2 days ago. Also hatched a shiny galarian corsola and today 2 fledglings.
Also live close enough to meridian line that with 20 mins travel I can hit blacephlon. No shiny of the ultrabeasts yet.
@Tarkan have added you i am arghhdress are you happy to add my son and daughter as well?

ISaySteadyOn · 11/04/2025 20:18

That's so neat that you work at a theatre. What's it like?

We're not only best friends but lucky friends otherwise I would add you 🙂

My shiny rate sucks right now. One Totodile and one Pineco and that’s it for the month so far.

You’re doing better than me!

Just been strolling through the city centre and got a shiny lapras, 4 lotad, and hatched a 4 salandit - male sadly.

If you're ever in Manchester shout me @gillybean2 I have three spare shiny elekids!

gillybean2 · 10/04/2025 14:17

@SneakyGremlin Wow, nice.

I have noticed the shiny rate seems to be a bit higher atm. I’ve caught 10 in April so far and I’ve only been out of the house twice. Finally got myself a shiny remoraid yesterday. Now I just need to evolve that (holding out for a slightly better one) and trade anyone? for a shiny Elekid to complete my Johto shiny dex.

ISaySteadyOn · 10/04/2025 13:03

Lucky!

I was in Portugal for work until 10am on Thursday, my flight literally took off as the raids started 🙈, but thanks to the app you recommended @gillybean2 I now have all 3 🎉

Thank you, Aarghdress for the Tauros raid yesterday. Now I only need Moltres to complete the Kanto Pokédex!

Be sure to get all 3 breeds of tauros; Combat, Blaze, and Aqua while you can. Unless you are near the Meridian for blaze and aqua you’ll need some remote passes. The Iberian/combat one is a definite remote pass unless you happen to be on holiday there (anyone?). I’m eastern hemisphere if anyone needs inviting to a tauros blaze raid make sure you’re marked as online when you’re available as I look for online friends to invite when I’m raiding.

I will be doing raid hour for it at 18:00. Are we friends? If so I’m happy to invite you, or you can jump in to raids I’m in using your friends list.

Sorry I completely missed this at the time, but did manage to find one in the end (only a 2* but it's one more entry for the dex!).

I forgot my password for Mumsnet and lost the thread for a bit!

Is anyone likely to be doing a tapu lele raid? I haven't got one yet, so would love to be invited along.
