lol, when you try to pet Cryogonal in pokemon amie, your hand freezes and he looks at you with a question mark above his head.

I wonder if it does something similar with fire types.

I wonder if they increased the chance of running into shinies because they seem a tad more common this time around.

yeah we posted about these a while back

slugma, who is covered in lava, burns your hand when you attempt to pet him anywhere. touching parts of any pokemon that are on fire or electrified, like a charmander's tail or a pikachu's cheek, will burn or electrify your hand, respectively.

that's what people are saying. but right now, everything's still unconfirmed. one common rumor is that tipping people has something to do with shiny rates.

I tip everyone 1000 pokedollars, and I haven't ran into any shinies yet.

i think it's more that there are so many players on tumblr that the odds appear to be higher

I'm just basing it off of Boyah.

People have gone through five generation without seeing a single shiny, and now we have people owning multiple in this generation.

[Samus Aran]

yeah this gen was my first ever shiny found in the wild

of course, it COULD all just be a coincidence, but they've done things to boost shiny rates before (like when the foreign poke breeding thing was first implemented, and the pokeradar, and now chain fishing), so i wouldn't entirely be surprised if it was boosted

[Samus Aran]
