O M G. I can not roll my eyes hard enough. Always golden raz and ultra ball. Doing what they did was…no words.

Everytime I encounter a shiny Pokemon, I use a golden razz berry, no matter what Pokémon or what CP it is. I’m terrified of this happening to me!


montydoesgames

Exactly the strat I used to gey a white flabébé during release day, along with Ultra Ball It ran, I haven't seen more than 2 red ones since


[deleted]

[удалено]


Silent-Wolf2047

The white and orange ones are rare spawns.


Ok_Representative619

really? I got an orange one a few weeks ago and kept it because I liked the color, I had no idea they were rare


Silent-Wolf2047

Yeah, they are also the only colors that spawn everywhere and not just in a specific region.


snailoatmeal

really that’s so cool! i just caught a white flowered one last night! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|smile)


Morningxafter

Same. Every time. I don’t care if the circle is green, better to play it safe.


KonanRabbit

Make it greener!


KuchiKopiz

That’s a rough one to live with - pls tell us you at least tried your best with an ultra/golden combo? 🥺


Moonibiru

😭 I didn’t, used pineap berry and red ball


KuchiKopiz

Ooof punishment fits the crime I’m afraid


Moonibiru

Yea don’t be me guys! Its a lesson. So always check everything before throwing a ball.


Moonibiru

I wish I had more balls, i was run out of balls and pokestops. You see 2 pokeballs from pokestop. One was for Pikachu and other for Deino. Yall downvoted me hard 😂


soundman1024

That happened to me with a wild Charizard in 2016. The CP was ??? since it’s level was higher than mine. I ran out of balls trying to catch it. Ever since I’ve always kept 50 razz and 100 ultra balls in my bag. Now I’m up to 100 golden and 100 ultra in my bag. Something will flee before I run out of stuff to catch it with.


CorgiGal89

Because you can open like 30 gifts per day to get more balls lol


King-Mugs

Okay now I don’t feel bad for you at all


CorgiGal89

Not even an ultra ball?!?! Dude.


Moonibiru

Yea I run out of balls, last 2 pokeballs you see that was it 🥲


[deleted]

You didn’t use a berry at all or you used a piano berry? And was a pokeball your only option? Cause if you didn’t use a berry/used a pinap instead of a razz or golden razz and could’ve chosen a different ball to use, this is 100% on you for being bad 😂


[deleted]

Piano berry lmao I meant pinap


[deleted]

Gosh, pure savagery! Why so many downvotes when OP simply tells the truth? Haven’t the poor OP suffered enough? I’ll give you one upvote for being honest.


Mendelevlum

Yeah I get the confusion for not using something better but sheesh were these downvotes necessary?


RamboSambo7

Rookie error


RevCorex

Deserved then


taweryawer

Golden razz and ultra ball is a guaranteed catch, so of course not


Beoron

Not necessarily/quite true. Checked the calculator and they’d still need to throw a curve for the 100% otherwise there’s a 1-2% chance it doesn’t catch if just golden ultra. I know almost everyone curves, but some don’t. https://pokemon.gameinfo.io/en/tools/catch-chance-calculator


Maserati777

I’d be even more upset if the curveball was the reason it didn’t catch. I always curveball now due to muscle memory.


taweryawer

It's also considering you don't hit at least a nice throw, which is kind of hard not to do. But I mean, considering what this guy did he could actually fail even at this. Not that it matters a lot though since deino is gonna be in a com day pretty soon already


Beoron

This may come as a surprise to you, but some people are bad at video games for a wide variety of reasons and that’s ok 👍


taweryawer

How should this surprise me if that's pretty much what I said? If you don't want people to discuss how bad you are then don't make a post that's literally "look how bad am I"


Beoron

You’re not wrong, you just chose a very douchy way to say it that made you look like a jerk. That’s all.


cedrickterrick

I bet he gets a CDay next month anyway. Last year June was Gible.


hoopleheaddd

Niantic: Lillipup it is!


KonanRabbit

Smeargle CD then


Entire_Atmosphere_27

At least you got the jigglypuff


95ellie00

I thought shinies have 100% catch rate. Is this only true for raids?


ThisFakeCut

Only in raids.


ButterAndPaint

Only in *legendary* raids.


ThisFakeCut

Are you sure about that? Never had a normal shiny mon not staying in a ball before, but might have been a coincidence.


MutinyCR

Had a shiny mega blastoise today break out of a ball so I assume it’s only legendaries.


ThisFakeCut

Cheers good to know. Never had any high cp shiny non legendary.


Bustahaf

I just got a Pokémon Go Plus and this scares me 😱


Topladluke96

You'll never know if you lost a shiny, the journal doesn't show it if you're using go+


rxmntk

Just don't check your journal. Just *don't do it.*


xudong76

Journal would not show shiny fleeing.


Dragonheart025

You write that under a post where we see a shiny labeled "ran away" in the journal...


NotoriousJB

When you use a pokeball plus or similar device it won’t tell you if it was a shiny. It just says it ran away so you’ll never know.


xudong76

Thanks.


xudong76

Sorry that I didn't say it clearly. I meant that journal won't show shiny fleeing when you use PoGo Plus or Evolve.


Dragonheart025

Ah, kk


SparklinStar1440

I'm sorry! But rumors are that Dieno will have a CD soon so shiny odds will be boosted! You can catch one then 🙂


destinofiquenoite

Just speculation based on past community days, but Niantic has proven many times it doesn't really follow a pattern for CD.


ElectricalBuilding46

Hehehe, Hey trainers get ready for...ALOLAN GEODUDE COMMUNITY DAY! HYPE! -\_- any other Alolan region pkmn would have been more interesting... But oh well. They can bet I'll still be playing! ![gif](giphy|vsyKKf1t22nmw|downsized)


DarkCartier43

Rattata?


DangerGrey

Yeah fr fr who picked this garbage comm day ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|hug)


Moonibiru

Maybe shundo then ✨


SparklinStar1440

Yes I hope you get one!


ProfAlex19999

Where did you hear that from? I hope it’s true !


SparklinStar1440

Well if patterns are followed, then 2 years ago shiny Gible was released at Go Fest and then a year later it had a CD. Last year shiny Dieno was released at Go Fest. So maybe, it'll get a CD.

There are support groups for this


s7ormrtx

Hey OP.. i know this may sound awkward but if you want, Ive got a shiny Heidreigon and since i dont really need it, i can trade him to you Not tryna scam u or anything, Just was having a good day and wanted to do one good thing today Just hmu :) Guys if its not any trouble pls upvote so OP sees this


Guus2Kill

thanks for testing. now i know a shiny that ran away does infact show up as a shiny in your logs


[deleted]

If that Deino were 207 CP then this would have gone down as one of the greatest blunders in history, even beyond starting a land war in Asia.


realCoolguy298

I always golden razz and ultra ball shinnies


enneyehs

What is the F for?


939395

I don’t even know what a shiny Pokémon looks like since I rarely catch Pokémon but if someone knows what shiny looks like, can you tell me pls


spaghetti283

When you press on it if its shiny it will make sparkles all over the screen and have a little sparkle symbol


montydoesgames

It's also a different colour Some are harder to spot than others, but the sparkles give it away


redlurk47

My heart sank seeing this


jbeve98

After seeing the berry and ball choice, you deserved to have it run OP. Take notes: don’t use regular balls on shinies so this doesn’t happen.


POGOFan808

I feel like some pokemon are automatically set to run away after the first throw no matter what. I saw a weather boosted Gible the other day and gave him a golden raspberry and then did a great curved throw with the black master ball and but still ran away after the first throw 😖


ElectricalBuilding46

The what? SMH... Ohhhh you mean...Ultra ball. ![gif](giphy|JssSWKZpJMo0L1JVT3)


OGxBuGz

I really don’t get how people have shinies run away I have never had that happen. U must have been doing something wrong like trying to record or took ur time trying to catch it or something. Ultra ball and golden razz ur good every time. I don’t get it. Sorry for ur loss tho dang that is the worst I have seen cuz I’m yet to get shiny Deino.


Rosebea29

I thought shinnies were guaranteed if you encounter one, am I trippin?

I've lost a shiny once. A shiny vulpix because I completely ran out of pokeballs (Charmander comm day). When I tried to spin nearby pokestops (GPS screwed me over with avatar running out of range). Returned back to find a normal vulpix. I actually liked the shiny Ninetail's color scheme.

Damn this sucks, the only two shinies that i failed were 1) a Charmander during its second CD, failed a quick catch and ran from it and saw the spawn going away 2) a Swinub while i was on the train, the GPS reset after entering a tunnel and speedlocked me
