Has anyone shiny hunted on Sun/Moon or Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon?

I haven't done anything major yet, but I did accidentally breed a shiny Eevee and Chikorita while trying to breed stuff for my teams! I might continue trying for a shiny Phanpy by breeding soon!

Yes I have actually, I've chained several shiny Pokemon in Ultra Moon and as well as hunting in the wormholes. The wormholes are your best chance to find a good shiny Pokemon due to their shiny chances basically being broken. I think my favorite chain that I have done in Ultra Moon has to be my Cubone chain. Managed to get it within less than 100 encounters! :D

My friend told me I should shiny hunt Steenee in Pokemon Ultra Moon ahaha, I've been in the chain since 12AM but I've only chained for about 2 and half hours actively. I'm about to continue the chain I have an hold so everyone wish me luck in finding it! xD (Steenee has a horrible call rate btw)

XD It has been a few months I hope you have gotten it!! My first Mudbray in Ultra Moon was actually a shiny, and I have not actively shiny hunted ever! I want to try some time, I have heard a lot of techniques from Slix, I just need to implement them!!

I actually have gotten that shiny Steenee in that chain since then so thank you! Speaking of Mudbray it was the last Pokemon I chained for but I warn you, you need something that has a way of not losing accuracy and can learn False Swipe if you really want to chain Mudbray haha. Chaining is pretty fun if the chain doesn't last what seems like forever so I am sure you can pick up on it pretty easily! One method I have successfully yet to do is PokeRadar. It is the most difficult but best way to get shinies in the generation 4 games. I might try that at somepoint if I ever manage to beat Pearl! xD Good luck with your shiny hunting experience though! :D

I just got my Shiny Charm on Ultra Sun! I've been continuing my shiny Phanpy hunt, and man, I hope it gets me a shiny soon. I've been breeding forever it feels like.
