Lotad Day was interesting; being the first 9-hour long event introducing not one, but 2 shiny forms. The highlight for such timeframe for me is not only does it encourage trainers to venture out of their usual play grounds, it also allows more room for participation for those who are normally preoccupied during the usual 3-hour window with personal and professional commitments.
The lowlight (for me at least) is the possibility of shiny encounter decreasing with the increased duration length. Or in other words, the more you maximise the time given, the higher the chance of encounter is 😊
I started off on a good footing, buddying up with my 2 brothers completing the tasks from almost all of the pokestops we spun. A temporary halt due to rain gave us time to discard mons & assess the Lotads we caught. Made a hard stop after playing for 3.5hours, and my next phase would be the planned trip to SS15.
SS15 is a good location; I guess my energy level wore off a little bit, and not to mention I was jumpy almost half of the time spent due to an ongoing "Ops Gagak" - local authorities firing off their shotguns put a damper on my mood 😅. Despite that, I trodded along and pretty much covered approx 70% of the area. Initial plan to spend 3 hours there was shortened to less than 2 hours.
As far as results is concerned - 76 tasks, 4 shiny Lotads, 1 hundo (I wish it was a shundo but still grateful!), and 6 Castforms.
Is it harder than Feebas Limited Research Day?
Feebas Limited Research, within 3 hours caught 2 shinies, and Lotad 9 hours, I caught 4 shines, so it's a YES from me.
"All I can say, it's never easy to get shiny, and it's about time and efforts, some of you may say it's luck 😊
My advice, don't give up and keep belief; believe that you can get more shinies."
