Does the Masuda Method really work?

Dec. 30, 2014

i’ve been at this annoying method for four days breeding hidden ability bagons and trying to find a shiny amongst them all. I have filled ALL of my boxes except the last two and a bit and I keep wonder trading them away to get crap Pokemon like a modest weedle. Is there no way to make this easier? Or do I have endure more of this…

Masuda Method does work but it does lower the rate from 1 in 4096 to 1 in 512 with the shiny Charm or 1/683 without I’m XY onwards.

Tips

For your unwanted Bagons put them up for GTS. HA Pokemon are quicklytaken or looked for.

Complete the National Dex to get a Shiny Charm. It hasn’t been confirmed officially but sites like Smogon and Serebii Forums are nodding their heads that the Shiny Charm increases the likelihood

Good Luck !:D

It does increase the likelihood of breeding a shiny. You just have to be patient with the method. Luck is also involved, just remember that.
