Given that TIDs and SIDs are used to determine shininess, do different save files have different shiny chances (ignoring RNG manipulation and stuff like the cute charm glitch)? Does this depend on the generation?
Is an egg's shininess determined when the egg is generated or when the player receives the egg? Does this depend on the generation?
Is it easier to do Poke radar shiny hunting in DPPt than BDSP? I have heard that the chance of continuing a chain in DPPt is 98% if you catch the Pokemon in the shaking grass 4 tiles away from the player, and all of the chances in BDSP are lower than that.
When using a Poke radar, is it possible for a shiny patch to appear exactly 1 tile north of the player? Does this depend on the generation? Does XY even have shiny patches?
When is a Poke radar Pokemon's gender determined? Is it when the grass starts shaking or when the player walks into the grass? Does this depend on the generation?
If you soft reset in B2W2 with the lucky pass power 3, will the game reroll every wild Pokemon's shininess each time you encounter them, or will the pass power and soft resetting mess with the RNG somehow?
How can you shiny hunt the starter faster in HGSS? Using fast text speed and saving right in front of the Poke balls are obvious, but is there anything else you can do? Like clamping down the L and R buttons?
