Should shiny Pokemon be stronger?
In Pokemon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, 'shiny' Pokemon obtained a boost in stats. However, they lack the extra power in this generation.
Does anyone think they should have the boost again? I do, since it makes them more valuable (But I also have a team of shinies ;-) Post what you think As polite as ever, Megamushroom07 _______________ |
I believe they should be stronger if they are so hard to get.
Legendaries are much stronger than anything else but are hard to get but really shinies are even harder to get they just defintely be a least a little stronger. |
no, because then theyd be banned from wifi which people would hate meaning that shinies would have no use except for in game (which is lame)
|
Nah they should stay with the no stat boost for shinies. All wifi battles would then be shiny v shiny, opening the door to hacks even more as you could claim a stat boost is natural, when infact its from AR.
Everybody having a team full of shinies loses the novelty of finding one in the first place. |
I wouldn't give them it, as some pokemon nowadays would become invincible. This is an example but say they got a 10% boost to their stats, a calm blissey could get almost 800HP and 450 Sp.Def. It would mean shinies getting banned, and i wouldn't wanna lose my purple swampert :(
|
Yeah
Yeah i think shiny pokemon DO have to have more powers
just collecting them because they are more beatyful isn't enough for me :) |
1 extra stat point in each state only at the beginning would be fine and no extra stats after that...
|
Maybe they could just get 2x EVs.
|
Here's a point, WHY would they get a stat boost? they're the same pokemon, just with a differentiation in skin/fur/feather pigment. Are albino people capable of doing more than regular people?
|
I wouldn't like them to be stronger as well.
Then everyone would battle with shinies and that's the point that would annoy me. I think shiny Pokes should only be for collections. |

You're right in that.. But do they don't come out of pokebals either ;) |
i don't think they should be stronger, but having 2x EVs is a good idea, Skii

But WHY should they? why does a different colour make them stronger. If you wanna go with science, its a disorder in the genes and should make them weaker if anything.
|
I agree with Gofre.
Speaking about the games themselves, though, it would be unfair because everyone would have to hunt shinies for a competitive team. That would be just weird. |
I think that the only thing that shinys hunters should be rewarded for is for their Pokemon to be different colors.
|
If it wan't for the fact it's gone from a split feild to a unamymous no, I'd have started off a poll lol.
Another point; If these pokemon were naturally stronger, battling would be taken over by hordes of lucky people catching shinies. How would you feel if you came up against someone who, through no real level of strategy, had got their mitts on a blissey with almost 800 HP? It takes the competetive edge away. |
If Ar and Pokesav didnt exist id say yeah make them stronger but only like have 1 IV guranteed 30-31
but i dont think they should be they re just different colours,fur etc and to be honest the annoying noise on Wifi would peeee me right off :p >.< |
There, start voting on the poll, people.
|
That's like the $64,000 question. I really can't honestly answer that. Due to their rarity, the logical answer would be yes. But then you'd have three or four people online who have entire teams of shinies going around dominating everything. So it isn't necessarily a good idea.
|
Haha...a $64,000 question isn't as good as a £1,000,000 question....dollars are half-price now XD.
|
I voted for don't care, because it depends on how well you trained the shiny. Also I have a shiny spinda Lv.100 and a regular spinda at Lv.100 and my shiny has better stats, so I guess shinies are stronger by a little bit though.
|
I actually think that they have a small boost that does not show up in stats, Just in battle.
|
They might have an IV Boost, but nothing confirmed
|
Their shiny status has absolutely nothing to do with IVs, at least in this generation, so stop talking nonsense.
