[ORAS] Masuda method vs Soft Reseting

[DracoGaming]

I wanted to know and start a discussion on which would be fast, so here is my predicament I have recently acquired a copy of alpha sapphire (not that I already had Omega) and I wanted to soft reset for a shiny but I was wondering which would be faster me having a Japanese ditto would it be faster to soft reset or masuda method and wait in till I get the shiny charm or just start SRing a starter

[tygaa2]

both methods will take a while!

[IceyGamer]

Both take a while but I have never had personal success SRing but have with Masuda Method.

also fall up question would having two pokemon from other nations increase it more?

[Eeveeli]

It won't. The most luck you will have with getting shinies is getting the shiny charm and breed for them. This works (in my option) better + you can breed for natures/egg moves/ect + you can trade the not shinies and possibly get other shinies via wondertrade which happened to me a few times before :D

^ This. I full heartily enjoy breeding over SR'ing tbh.

I prefer breeding over the Soft Reset, because you don't press many buttons for breeding. :P

But will Soft Reset Legendaries, which I'll have to do for Cresselia.

You make me feel bad about myself not being able to get shinies that are awesome like those.

I have been VERY successful with the Masuda Method. I have yet to try Soft-reseting but it seems way more tedious to me.
I do REALLY want a shiny Giratina so I might try it out sometime soon.
