HI everyone, since we are on this shiny topic, I would like rant about something which makes me extremely frustrated. Hope you dont mind, if you dont feel like reading a fellow shiny breeder's bad day complaints please ignore this post.

Shiny breeding is really really tiring and boring =(
360+ and still nothing, i know 360 may seem nothing to you, but to me, it is a lot because this is just my second shiny hunt.
I got lucky the first time when i got a shiny conkeldurr (timburr at first) with just 120 eggs and that was the moment i feel like i can breed any shiny i want.
And that shiny breeding passion slowly wears off ... I soooo want to give up now.
I've got around 10x 6ivs and 2boxes full of 5 useful iv, but none of them is a shiny.
.

.
.
And worst of all, I'm breeding larvitar. Which has one of the longest egg cycle. KILL ME PLS ! JK =P

Im not sure when to quit, but i think i've set my limit to 500 eggs. If i still cant get that shiny larvitar, I think thats it, fate does not want me to have my own shiny tyranitar.

Tell me what to do. Encourage me? Discourage me? Leave your comment/advice. Thank you for reading my complaints.

hey! try not to give up. im currently at my ~18th box full of zorua (i know not as many steps as you have to take) but im encouraging me with 'when im giving up now, i might probably miss the chance to get a neon coloured little dog-thingy'
i've gotten my first bred shiny (eevee) at under 200 eggs too, the next one took me a little longer (charmander) but i've never given up. because all other ways are way to risky for myself (like pokeradar) and are not as accurate for iv's as breeding. and i LOVE shinys! i've now got already 6 different shinys via breeding and i think it's also the most relaxing way.
put 5 eggs in your team, go cycling in lumiose city and watch some tv or whatever! you can use the breed buff on yourself too!
the next shiny might pop out of nowhere sooner than youll expect the next time you breed!

Dont let it get to you breeding for a shiny is incredibly hard. Id say take a break from breeding and go shiny hunting in a friend safari, chain fishing or horde hunting just for the heck of it. Joltik is the one Im breeding for a 5-6iv shiny and still no luck. I put that aside and went shiny hunting every other way and although you most likely wont get perfect iv'd pokemon the shinies you get are always satisfying.

I thought my luck was on my side but no. It appears that I have to try again, which bites.
