At most, you need a Pokémon with a Defense DV of 10 and a Special DV of either 2 or 10. This is very important, as it means your parent Pokémon doesn't necessarily need to be shiny to increase the chances of producing a shiny egg. Special has a 50% chance to remain the same, and a 50% chance to differ by 8.

If a parent is Ditto, the child will always inherit Ditto's stats.Īs for how the stats of an egg are inherited, here's a handy chart: HP.

A male child will inherit stats from a female parent.

A female child will inherit stats from a male parent.

When you breed Pokémon in G/S/C, stats are also passed down. This matters because female members of the Eevee, starter, fossil, Snorlax and Togepi species can only ever have an attack DV of 0 or 1, meaning that it is unfortunately impossible to hatch a shiny female of them in G/S/C. Interestingly enough, DVs in G/S/C also determines a Pokémon's gender, if it is indeed capable of being either male or female. The famed Red Gyarados is the sole exception, and will always be shiny and male. In a regular wild Pokémon encounter, it would have a 1/8192 chance of having these stats, and thus being shiny. One thing of note is that Special Attack and Special Defense share the same DV, due to Gold/Silver/Crystal being backwards-compatible with Red/Blue/Yellow (which only had the single Special stat).

What IS a shiny?īasics first! A Pokémon in Gold/Silver/Crystal will be shiny if its DVs are the following values: HP

I will aim to make this guide as simple to follow as possible, with clear explanations on just how shininess and breeding in G/S/C works. Good thing G/S/C gives you a free shiny, huh?

The fun part of this is since stats are partially passed down to eggs, this means there's an increased rate of hatching shiny Pokémon in G/S/C as long as you have a shiny parent or a parent with specific stats. Stats had a hidden value from 0-15 that would determine how good a stat could possibly be (called determinant values, or DVs), and it was these values that also determined shininess. Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal are structured a bit differently to every game thereafter, with one of the biggest differences being in its stat values.
