Were you playing during the 3-hour community day event window in your country? The shiny spawn rates are boosted even more then.

I managed to get a shiny of all prior CD mons except Larvitar, Chikorita and Squirtle today (including one copy of 2 mons that I missed, Eevee [travelling] and Cyndaquil [poor weather].) Larvitar is who I really want though, I missed the original CD since I was driving hundreds of miles that day and the place I picked out to do my CD at was... barren  

No, I went out from 4pm until 11pm  I'll go out earlier tomorrow to try my luck again haha

I hope you'll be able to get a shiny Larvitar I'm actually still happy about the event because I got a ton of candy that I missed because of the year I stopped playing  I still can't believe my friend who plays once a week has more shinies than me, though.

RNG sucks, yeah...

I hope I get a shiny Larvitar too  And catch enough shinies to beat your friend  

I was out from around 1:30pm to 5:30pm.

Today’s shiny hunt was not as successful as yesterday’s  but I still managed to catch 1 shiny Dratini, 1 shiny Larvitar and 1 shiny Charmender. 

I have to decide what to evolve now among all of the CD Pokemon and whether the exclusive moves are worth it or not.

Any suggestions?

Beldum's exclusive move is the best. For the others, it is only arguably worth it, either because the exclusive move is either worse than the best move it learns otherwise (Dragonite, Eeveelutions), or the pokemon is (Typhlosion, Blastoise) or will be soon (Venusaur, Tyranitar, Charizard) outclassed by pokémon with a higher DPS (damage per second) rate.

Not too fussed about getting shinies, period, but I got shiny Pikachu, Squirtle, Charmander, Dratini and Beldum.

Didn't see a shiny Larvitar at all! Although my friend caught one.

Overall was pleased with this weekend though! Missed pretty much all of the community days this year since I only started playing again recently, so I was especially keen on stacking up on candies for the Gen 1 starters. Also managed to evolve some high leveled Tryanitar and Metagross which I'm pleased about!

I didn't realise that the CP for Charizard, Venusaur and Blastoise were so limited by your level, though. I have a Blastoise at 2078 and can't power up anymore because I'm *only* Lvl 29  kinda sucks

Yeah, although it gives you something to do when you reach a new level - power up your best 'mons.

Community day over here is starting in a half hour. Hoping to finally get the Shiny Larvitar as well as hopefully some more Shiny Eevee and Cyndaquil, since I'm low on those. I just got to school (where I spend my CDs and found a Shiny Bulbasaur again, which is nice, I guess.

They increased the shiny rate fully only for the 3 hours on Saturday it seems. According to Silph during the 3 hours it was 1/25, during the weekend it's 1/80. I got a ton of shinies yesterday but only 1 today after hours of playing.

Yeah I noticed and was ticked off when I spent time out of my sunday to try and find them again. Ugh. Now I'll never get a shiny Larvitar.

On the upside though I managed to get a Shiny Caterpie today!

 I wish they had long distance trading, I’d totally give you one!

I just saw that in PVP, Ultra and Best friends can challenge each other from any distance. It would be great if they could do that for trading as well.
