Daenordus, Shiny Parents don't affect child Shiny rate, if that's what you mean. But if it's a preference for genders on certain Pokemon, wouldn't a Shiny Sylveon be better as a Male, and a normal Sylveon Female? :3
Daenordus, Why does Female matter for Shiny? And no, it's Male. But I've got a 6 Male, and 2 5 Females. The Shiny, is sadly Adamant, as I was breeding for Flareon at the time.. >_<
