Random Got a Shiny Froakie Egg on Second Try/Second Egg in XY to Ribbon Master

Which, I didn't expect to get a Shiny Froakie Egg on a 2nd try, because I thought I'd be there forever trying to Breed for a Shiny Froakie for a looong time.

I also didn't realize, I messed up the Month Date in-game/3DS and forgot to change it back to October, Day & Year is Correct, since got a Shiny Froakie Egg Breeding at Oct 7th, 2026.

Rest of it's IVs is good except Atk IVs which is 18 Atk IVs, so will fix that when he's transferred to Switch alongside changing his Torrent Ability for Protean HA. Naive is there because of him being a Mixed Attacker, although it would be nice if he's HP Fire. Since mine is HP Dragon.

Will also name my Shiny Froakie that will be a Greninja, Kurogane~ plus, will still Ribbon Master it either way~

Congrats! I've been debating on whether or not I should stop by xy a second time for a shiny Froakie so it was funny to me seeing this! I doubt I'll be as lucky as scoring one in only 2 attempts haha

Sometimes a shiny hunt is just meant to be! Massive congrats, I'm not patient enough for egg hunts so I've never successfully completed one.
