[gen 4] Shiny Muk after 27,046 encounters in heart gold😅

This is now my longest recorded shiny hunt so I’m glad to see something finally show up even though it was a phase for Murkrow. And I accidentally used my master ball on it which is fantastic!😅 guess I have a very boogie Muk!

Hopefully my luck turns around because I’ve been on quite the dry streak lately! We always keep pushing through though!!!✨

I almost asked why masterball it but I did read. Glad it was a dry streak breaker at least it’s something!

I swear Heartgold has significantly worse odds than 1 in 8192. I hunt on two GBA and two DS, Heartgold is one of the games I’ve been hunting on, and in the last six months I’ve found one shiny (an oddish), despite having had collectively well over 100,000 SR/ REs across all devices.

Is there any sort of glitch other than a cute charm/ trainer ID mismatch that actually worsens shiny rate?

Is it human error to assume that had I been hunting on only Heartgold that I’d have found only 1 shiny in over 100,000 RE?

She looks so awesome btw!!!

That Muk has to become a permanent member of your team or else it's a waste of your Master Ball

I’ve never used a muk before so maybe!
