Shiny Pokémon color schemes you personally dislike?

[Sheep]

Try not to mention shinies with color schemes that look too close to the original - we all know those would be better off changed. This is more your opinion on shinies that you don't like the colors of. Which shiny color schemes that aren't too close to their originals do you personally dislike/would change?

espeon for me... and I was breeding for shiny scorbunny till I realized how odd cinderace's shiny looks. I guess I will nickname mine Nesquik when/if I get it lol

Any shiny that turns into this throw green like Tranquill🤢.

I'd give Pidove and it's whole line this beautiful white with blue or at least swap the dark grey spots with the light gray ya'know.

Espeon. What the hell were they thinking when they came up with THAT. Good lord.

 

[Ninja Keyboard]

I honestly dislike all of the shiny eevelutions with the only exception being Umbreon. I really hate it when they just make shinies really bright colours that don't fit them at all :/

 

[Nymphadora]

Shiny Beedril line and shiny Staryu. I'm not a fan of the green. :X

 

[icycatelf]

I'm not a fan of the drab green + pink seen on Shiny Nidoqueen and Barbaracle...

I'm also not especially keen on yellow/gold Shinies. I think Fire-types can pull it off, but a lot of the others annoy me somehow...

 

[Percy]

anything with that green(ish) hue. it reminds me of moss so much >.<

 

[Roaming Emboar]

They should've gave shiny nidoqueen the color scheme of nidoking just like how shiny nidoking takes nidoqueen's color scheme.

 

[Ninetales]

There isn't one particular colour scheme that I dislike. Green shinies are hit and miss for me and contrary to popular opinion, I actually find shiny Espeon to be alluring. I do think some Pokémon look awkward being green (Ursaring I'm looking at you.)

Overall I think there are some dark orange and yellow shinies that are done poorly. Octillery is especially hideous, as it's some shade of brown-green-yellow that is incredibly unflattering. Mismagius has an awful shiny form as well, it's truly such an injustice.

 

[Fairy]

Espeon and Alcremie's shiny forms are an injustice to the pokemon world. (¬д¬。)

Also shiny female Hippowdon. It looks just like a normal male Hippowdon making it needlessly confusing. Lastly, shiny Dragonite. The color scheme for it isn't actually that bad but when you think of how it could have looked when compared to shiny Dragonair it's just.. such a let down. :'(

As a certain notepad once said; "Green is not a creative colour."

 

[Amore]

A lot of the hate for green is a little one-dimensional. Espeon's garish colouration holds some appeal, whereas Dragonite's alternate colour is awful (and doesn't fit my theme of naming dragon pokémon out of fictional dragons, Dragonite getting Glaedr from Eragon, as if I could remember the green one in that series' name - if it was even revealed - it would go to Flygon).

 

[Roaming Emboar]

I mean, it's not like we just hate the color green, it just doesn't look right on certain pokemon especially if there were other better shiny color options.

 

[Maserati777]

Some include Ursaring, Espeon, Weavile, Cyndaquil line, Grumpig and the infamous Nidoqueen.

I don't hate all green shinies though, I love Teddiursa, Sudowoodo, Stantler, Marill and even Lileep.

Flygon was a huge travesty, it would be amazing if the green parts that changed to dark green changed to a different color. Its the green with the blue I hate.

 

[Adam Levine]

wow am i the only person who likes green espeon

Anyway, if there's a Shiny I really dislike that isn't an awful shade of green, it's got to be Dedenne's.

It looks fine from the back, but combined with the yellow accents? It's awful.

 

[Brendino]

Any Pokemon that flips red for green and vice-versa absolutely sucks for color blind people like me. Shroomish in the earlier games was bad for this, swapping it's green spots for red ones. I actually caught a shiny Shroomish at some point on Sapphire, and never even realized until years later because of it.

And shiny Espeon belongs in the thread for best shiny color schemes, not this one!

 

[BH]

Yesterday i found an shiny Trapinch which color i don't like (also Trapinchs are really annoying pokemon since you can't escape from them)

 

[colours]

not sure what the hell game freak was thinking when they made shiinotic's colour scheme but it's sure the first thing that comes to mind when thinking of unappealing shiny colours.

also any other pokemon that has a very weird shade of yellow or green like exeggutor and kabutops. not rly a fan of those.

 

[Roaming Emboar]

I have a dislike for shinies that barely have a difference (The Togepi line, Pikachu, Persian, etc.)

 

[spottedfirestar]

Personally not a fan of any of the neon green ones, and I think it's sad that there's so many of them.

Also I have an issue with shinies that change over the generations, like skitty being more distinctly peachy color in earlier gens, but becoming increasingly more samey in current gens? But it extends to all shinies that have some form of extreme change over the generations.

I honestly wish over all that shinies had more thought put into them in general, I think all shinies should be appealing and distinct, while also still fitting in with the pokemon breed, and I don't see why that's so hard to accomplish.
