I'm playing the original Ruby (mugs version) on My boy! emulator for android and I am seriously considering looking for Shinies BUT, are there shinies in roms?

Or does the RNG process that determines if shinies spawn or not get removed in the emulation process?

    When roms are created, they are essentially a copy of the original game in a format that can be executed by your device. So there should be no reason that this feature has changed.

  • @Ben ok, im glad to hear that. I was really hesitant because i didnt want to start soft resetting 3986 times and realize there werent any shinies in the rom XD

  • Interesting. I just asked a question similar to yours. I have done so much hunting for a shiny yet haven't found one and I'm on on myboy emulator too. I hope you find one and when you do, let me know so I don't give up hope. I have over 25000 between soft resets and random encounters and still no shiny.

Shininess is determined by values inherent in the pokemon, so shinies are just as likely in an emulator.
