    I realize I ran the probability of a lottery WITHOUT duplicate numbers! *big brain moment*
    however, this lottery CAN have duplicate numbers, so instead of being 10*9*8*7*6, it should instead be 10^5..... or 274 Years.

    Instead of doing it every 2 minutes, you can do it once every 30 seconds, here's how:
    Go into handheld mode
    Connect to the internet
    Search for a single battle
    Hold the home button
    When you get a match, immediately enter and exit airplane mode
    Enter a Pokemon center
    Change the day every time
    It removes the time to go to the raid den

    Oh, it's so true that Masterballs are important in this game. In Pokemon GO you usually get >10 balls after winning a raid battle, but in Sw/Sh it's only a single one and the catch rates on those five star raids are usually not the greatest...
    I found myself extremely lucky when I somehow managed to get into a G-Max Gengar raid before the lobby was already full, and guess what, that G-Max Gengar was a Shiny. I wasn't sure if I should use the Masterball, but I decided to use it, since I didn't know when I'll ever encounter a G-Max Gengar again and because Gengar is one of my all time favourite Pokemon in general. This was also my first G-Max Gengar raid ever. I couldn't believe it was a Shiny and it really surprised me.
    Anyways, since I used my only Masterball, I had no Masterball left. Though what do I end up in the next day playing the game? I was very happy to see a G-Max Centiscorch raid and I was lucky to be able to joyn the lobby and... it's a shiny G-Max Centiscorch (which has a design I really like). Quite crazy. So we managed to beat it, but even with the fitting ball it ran away... somehow I managed to get into the same raid two more times in the next half an hour or so - giving me hope - but even in three tries, I couldn't catch it... Pretty disappointing :/ I'm extremely happy about my Gengar though..!

    It's actually not 1 out of 31 chance but 1 out of 32 because it's 0-31. This is only when using two 6 iv parents. But if you're not breeding for a specific nature, you can use a power item and destiny knot with a 5 iv and 6 iv parent to have the odds of 1/32 instead of about 1/55 (7/384).
