[Question]G4MGAntiShiny

[Davil]

What does PIDType.G4MGAntiShiny mean?

G4event PIDType.None?

[Kaphotics]

G4MGAntiShiny = 4th Generation Mystery Gift Anti-Shiny

The game re-rolls the PID with the ARNG (not LCRNG) until the PID is not shiny.

 

PIDType.None is 'no correlation between PID and IVs'.

So I get a G4 event in datebase PIDTypeNone is right?

Or must be G4MGAntiShiny?

[Kaphotics]

Having None is fine; it's also fine to have the G4MGAntiShiny.

G4MGAntiShiny happens whenever the None PIDIV results in the pkm being shiny; the game then rerolls it.
