I'm interested in hearing from the shiny hunting community here. Do you have a favorite method or way to catch shinies? If so, what is it?
A few examples of methods are
Random encounters (running around in the grass like a child)
Soft resetting (resetting the game for static encounters, such as legendaries, starters, the snorlax in X/Y, etc...)
Horde encounters (sweet scenting in gen 6)
SOS (letting a pokémon call for help and hoping is a shiny)
Pokeradar (either gen 4 or 6)
And do you prefer full odds (1/8196), gen 6/7 full odds (1/4098), or shiny charm odds?
I myself love doing all of them aside from random encounters, and I prefer full odds, since it feels more rewarding
