Are we sure (enough) that ally #11 isn't 6% likely to be shiny? --[[User:Gamescook|Gamescook]] ([[User talk:Gamescook|talk]]) 01:29, 10 January 2017 (UTC)

:That's not how it works. The chance is far, far lower than 5%, even at a chain of like 100, because it only rises once at a chain length of 60 or 70 when the chance triples, from 1 in 8192 to 3 in 8192.

::Whoops! Meant to type "Hidden Ability" instead of "Shiny." A man can dream of a 5% Shiny rate. ALAS. Question above still stands: Are we confident saying ally #11 isn't 6% likely to have their Hidden Ability?--[[User:Gamescook|Gamescook]] ([[User talk:Gamescook|talk]]) 20:08, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
