Going through my old Deviantart page. I think I may have designed my own Mega Palkia about 3 years before Megas were even a thing...

tbh Z-moves are unappealing because you're wasting an item slot because you only get a one use move from itI just don't see me wanting to use a Snorlium Z Snorlax over Leftovers or something

There are whole compilations of people reacting to shinies all over YouTube, but they're all just a bunch of soft-resetters, egg-hatchers, and people who are deliberately searching for shinies. And I'm like, who gives a fuck? Congratulations, you statistically guaranteed yourself a shiny. Which ruins the whole fun of shinies in the first place.Way to go?If your shiny catch wasn't just a completely random event in the wild, you're doing it wrong.Is this bait?

you could hatch infinite eggs or soft reset infinite times and statistically you would never be guaranteed to get one

You can essentially boost your odds to 99.99%, especially with all this Masuda method shit, Shiny Charms, chain-fishing and whatnot.
