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.
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.
