Pokebay Event: Breeding for shinies!

[XTheRavenX]

So i was thinking about how long it usually takes for one person to hatch a shiny. to be more specific the odds are 1/8192. in case you did not know, that's a very low chance! that's why it takes so long to hatch a shiny. During a conversation with my friends i realized that those were the odds for one person breeding so i came up with an idea. it goes as follows:
1) multiple people breed for a specific shiny needed/wanted by someone.
2) everyone will have one day to accomplish this.
3) the pokemon must be hatched the day it was chosen/asked for.
4)whoever hatches the shiny gets to pick which should be the next pokemon to be bred for.

*keep in mind this is only to benefit the community so don't get greedy!*
in other words, just because who hatched a cool pokemon doesn't mean you should keep it, it belongs to who asked for it! but realize if you win you can ask for any pokemon you want!

I believe this will increase the odds by a lot more considering multiple people will be working for one common goal, which also brings us together as a community! so please i would like comments as to if this would work and if anyone wants to give this a try! maybe you can be asking for that shiny you always wanted!

UPDATE

Bump
I think we should make this a group, it'd be kinda easier that way.

yeah i agree, so that no one would just but in and destroy the whole trade thing

^^I like that idea, but I'm curious, what happens if no one gets a shiny on the date?

If you have a shiny charm and breed with a foreign Ditto (Masuda Method) your chances will be mulitplied by 3*6 = 18/8192. Rounded down to 1/455. I've bred quite a few shinies myself and can confirm these odds.

I'm fairly sure that if a few people participate you'll get a shiny quickly.
And if no one gets one, well.. Add another day? x)

its just hard to find someone help you with the shiny charm ya know

I don't have a shiny charm :/ I haven't even hatched a shiny yet XD but I breed a lot of pokemon, so hopefully I get lucky soon lol I'm still up for trying though, I feel like I must be getting lucky soon enough lol

I do have to Shiny Charm, though I don't know if it's just me being lucky or if it's the Shiny Charm. Some people says the Shiny Charm don't work for breeding because it help "encountering" Shiny Pokémon, but I believe it helps even if no one confirmed it for real.

I have the shiny charm. I really do think it works, because all the hunts I've done have ended on a note of 200 eggs or less. uwu Out of six people, someone's bound to find a shiny xD If no one does, then we'll just have to extend it another day, I suppose.

Do you breed with a foreign parent? Because that increase your chances of hatching a shiny by *6.

Shiny charm works for everything. Encountering, recieving, hatching you name it. (except for pokemon that cannot be shiny, obviously)

[0pinion]

Yeah, I use a foreign parent and everything, I just haven't been lucky lol XD
