Box numbers end at 31. It'll increase as you get closer to what you're seeing now. I thought the same, but it just keeps automatically adding boxes til I hit box 31.

I'm at 1020 eggs for a shiny Froakie and still haven't seen one. You still got a long way to go. I'm 35 boxes full of Froakies so far, so looks like you'll need to hit close to 500-800 eggs before hatching a shiny.

Heh, I started the game just a few days ago, and caught a shiny Caterpie right away. It's either my luck, or it's true that shiny encounters are actually more common.

As Nusdogg said, it'll keep increasing automatically. But as far as I know, you can unlock the extra boxes early by putting at least one Pokemon in each box until you reach the maximum (or at least that's what I did in Gen 5 to get them early, dunno if it still works in Gen 6).

there is no chain every egg when you get it has the same chance.

I got 5IV Shiny Chamander Timid with Solar Power after about 10 boxes. It was like "Yeeeeees"

Also, I got a Shiny Poliwhirl using Fishing Chaining.

But since I'm impatient person, I did some PokeRader chaining and didn't succeeded.

I got up to 1370 eggs and still no shiny Froakie.

Question though ppl!!

Question #1: If I remove Greninja that I want a shiny off of, and put him/her back into the daycare with a Jap Ditto, will that mess up the probablity or reset it?

Question #2: What if I used a Froakie that was hatched from an egg that Greninja had in place of Greninja in the daycare, will that give me a different probablity or luck for a shiny? Or would it still be the same as Greninja?

Answers for #1 and #2 is No. The probability will not changed because you remove or put another Pokemon except if it was from different region (JAP/ ESP/FRE).

i was going to sr for mewtwo, until i couldnt be bothered. grabbed a soda, came back and decided to just catch the bastard. got him in a premier ball which looks cool though. might start breeding for shiny excadrill later, and i'll name him boota or something xD

anyway the only shinies i ever got were psyduck in pearl and a cinccino on my white rom.. which is probably legit but makes me question its legitimacy :L

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
