Kinaster, breeding, and clicking So, with Kinaster now being breedable, here's some information/stats for anyone who wants to hunt it. How do I breed Kinaster? - Kinaster is a baby pokemon, like happiny. It cannot breed - You need a Lunupine and Solynx pair, preferably at 99% - The parents need to have max affection - not to be confused with happiness - which can be boosted with Big Malasada, or Perfect berries of the parents' berry preference How common are Kinaster eggs? *Special thanks to Travocity94 for the stats. He's the guy who found the first shiny and albino Kinaster - so go give them a click! From Travocity94, 153620 interactions gives 41 clicks with a red gigaremo on. Thats an average of 1 kinaster egg in 3747 interactions. If you want a comparison, I personally did an Apoc. Golett hunt, which averaged about 1 egg in 1.1k clicks with a red gig. on, with a 68% pair. I also did a snowpoke hunt, which averaged 1 in 900 clicks without red gig, with a 97% pair. This is just for perspective. Shiny Hunting Kinaster The thing about shiny hunting kinaster is, you need to start with 40 eggs. And Travocity has pretty much provided the stats for that - you'll need about 150k interactions, with red gig. active to start the 40 egg chain. Now lets get onto the fun part. What about after the chains started? Well, the conglomerate shiny chances seem to be about 1 in 25. To get 25 eggs, you need about 93670 interactions. Doesn't sound that bad, does it? Melan Hunting Kinaster Anywho, for a bit of maths about melan hunting this thing. Lets say you have max boosts as well as Arceus. From what I hear, you can expect a melan at about 2k, on average. How many interactions do you need for 2k Kinaster eggs with a red gig? 7,493,658. point 5. That's... more interactions that most people on the site have done ^^; How long would it take to get it though? I think its feasible to say one can probably do 75k on average a day, if you really put your mind into it. That means it would take... about 100 days of 75k interactions a day to mathematically get a melan kinaster. Link *This post isn't to discourage you from hunting it! I just like maths and statistics =3 *If you have more statistics, or you want to comment on this post, feel free to PM me c: *Good luck to ya'll hunting kinaster =3
