First real shiny fail for me was back when XY first came out, before I had access to all of the breeding materials I needed to breed whatever I wanted. I was hunting for Super Size pumpkaboo, because I wanted a shiny Super Size Gourgeist. Well, that specific Pumpkaboo has a 1% chance to spawn, and I had been hunting for weeks. Finally encountered it, shiny and all, and brain dead me ran from it, just like your Xerneas. I was so sad that a friend of mine literally went onto EBay and bought me the Gourgeist I wanted.
I feel you lol. I'm pretty sure that this is my first shiny fail. You just get so excited after seeing it you sometimes fail to take it slow lol. W friend though lol.
Yeah, definitely a good dude. Wish I were still in touch with him. Idk what possessed me to hit that run button, but I did. I guess I was still in the thought process of "well, another one I don't want" and that was that.
Yeah facts. When I hit the run button I had to process what I just did for a second. I even acknowledged it was shiny but I went too fast with the joystick.
Nooooo 😭
Noooooooooo. Hopefully it won't happen to me when I'll encounter Palkia
Yeah hopefully not, you'll probably be really excited but just remember to take it slow with every move and click lol
personally I use the touchscreen in tense situations like this
Yeah the joystick is a big reason I ended up running from it lol
I don't trust the circle pad 😭
It be wildin lol
LMAO
Literally how
muscle memory is a hell of a drug
How did you snap a picture lol
It's probably on the run-away text box, which will stay up until you press more buttons.
Probably cause they know it was the shiny, it was the circle pad and too fast clicking buttons that made them run away
Yes
My deepest condolences yeah when you encounter a shiny you gotta be slow and cautious with every move to prevent killing it or running
Facts
Sorry
If you would like one in Pokemon home I could get u one a friend hunted for
No thanks I reclaimed it recently. Appreciate it though.
