I was looking around online today and discovered the Masuda Method, where you have a higher chance of getting a Shiny Pokemon if you breed a native and a foreign pokemon together. I was wondering if anyone here has a foreign Ditto to trade? If you're game isn't English, I can trade you a Ditto from my game and we both profit.

GTS is a good bet. If you can't find a Ditto right away (since GTS literally changes just about every hours), just find a compatible mate (ex find a Heracross (M) from a foreign country to breed it with your Karrablast (F). That works too)

Thanks, didn't even think of that XD :n00b: I usually hate GTS (people wanting lv. 9 legendaries, etc), but I'll give it a shot, anyways. :)

I know, but something you can find some things on there that will blow your mind. For example, I found a (legit- I even checked it) shiny Minun on there for a Magmar. I was like "Um, YES PLEASE!"

Oh my God :O how badly did someone want that magmar?! XD I would never trade my shiny! (I only have one legit one XD)

I'm the same way. Legit shinies in the wild are hard to come by. Why trade one? haha

I know, right? They always feel more special to me.... When I get legit shinies, I keep 'em and try to get them to max level! I love battling with them! :D

GTS has surprised me a lot.

I got at least 7 legit shinies from there.
Even if the GTS is annoying, it's pretty surprising.
