Shiny Pokemon should be in the Pokedex
I wanted to compare my shiny Blaziken with a normal coloured one because they look quite similar. I thought the shiny version would be in the forms section, it wasn't. Its a bit stupid, what if you traded your shiny away, but you wanted to proove you owned one? The nearest thing to a shiny you can see in the Pokedex are the Shellos east and west sea forms. Who agrees Shinys should be recorded in the pokedex?
|
Would make sense, i suppose.
|
I agree! And so does my friend.

Yeah, that would be cool. ^^
|
I thought it would be common sense... It is another form of the pokemon after all lol
|
That would be useful,they should put it at the place where you see a Pokemon's Pokedex Entry. :D.
|
Lol, it would be nicer, being able to look at the shiny forms of Pokemon.
|
I was just thinking about this the other day, and it would be a logical and cool addition to the Pokedex.
That way you could compare shiny to normal Pokemon side-by-side without using Serebii.net |
Has anybody seen the shiny blaziken, there barely a difference XD
|
I have, they are pretty close. I think it would be a really cool addition to the pokedex ;)
|
Aren't Shiny Pokémon supposed to be 'secret' to us in Nintendo's eyes, though? They've always been referred to as 'alternately colored' Pokémon in English canon as far as I can remember, and wouldn't openly admitting they existed for every Pokémon by putting an option in the 'Dex just totally contradict what they said? If we could see side-by-side only Pokémon we've captured as Shinies, then it would probably be fine, but...

It isn't a huge difference, but it is not a slight difference either. The red Blaziken that is a non-shiny is much brighter then the deep and dark burgende color the shiny Blaziken has. Quote:
I'm not so sure if Nintendo would still call the shiny pokémon a secret in these DPPt versions. Since the older generation games of pokémon must have given it a hint to people who've seen and/or caught shiny pokémon, it wouldn't be considered much a secret to them anymore. However, if people get the DPPt games as their first pokémon game, it would be a surprise reveal to them. I wouldn't mind shinies being a added feature in the game, however I don't mind if they won't be an added feature in the future games either. People can eventually see the differences of shinies and non-shinies on the internet unless of course they do not have any internet connection whatsoever. I do recall seeing posters of pokémon in their shiny forms, so they could always compare the shinies and non-shinies like that. |
Well, if you click on the non shiny and you've seen//owned the shiny(s) then you should be allowed to compare. If its ONLY if you've already seen one, it wouldn't be spoiling much.
|
Yes, that's what I said. There should only be a shiny comparison if you've caught the shiny. But Nintendo are mostly focusing on the people who don't know that Shinies exist, or those who have never seen one before - those people are the ones who are more likely to visit the events, who are more likely to care about what's given out. If it's not something the unknowing younger population know for sure is totally going to get some wows, then chances are they won't bother; who wants a Dragonite when you can have a Darkrai? And besides, it's like lulling those people who don't know about them into a false sense of pride when they find a blue-and-white Ponyta or a green Zubat that, as far as they know, nobody else has.
|
Wow, I thought I was the only one who thought of this. I'm glad so many of you agree. I've always wanted to see a Shiny in my Pokedex that I saw/caught. My very first shiny was in Diamond and I can't prove that I saw it. (I accidently clicked run.) Plus, I'd just like a reminder of what it looks like. I hope this feature is in HG/SS. (Yeah, right.)
|
hmm I guess a Shiny addition to the PokeDex would be good, it would deffo help alot. It would help compare the Normal and Shiny. Maybe Game Freak should think about this for further games, if they make any.
|
this is a pretty good idea, I like it. Maybe they didn't do it because most people don't find that many shiny Pokemon, I know some people that never ran into a shiny Pokemon (not counting Gyarados)
:t354:TG |
As the above posters said, it would make a bit of sense. I believe in 5th gen, however, that the shiny pokémon view idea may be implemented. It seems like the Gens build gradually over their mistakes (The Special bar from 1st gen, the EVs/IVs from 2nd gen, etc.), and that seems like a proper fix that 5th gen could have for a marketing benefit, among other ideas.
|
that's a good point. i've never thought about it to be honest lol. good job.
|
[center]Nah, I don't think that's a good idea. It's not a bad idea, but it's not a good idea either. =/ There's really no point to it. As long as the Pokémon is recorded in general, then that's all you need.
As for the different between Blaziken and shiny Blaziken, it's really not hard to see. Shiny is much darker. Which is odd since it's called a 'shiny' Pokémon. O.o Now Frosslass. There's barely a different there. For a color blind person, it would look the same. It's about two shades lighter and the sash is pink instead of red. XD That's about it, though~[center] |
I thought about it the other day, and I really wish they had it!
It would be a great addition to the dex, and It would help those who collected shinies (who doesn't), but traded some of them away to get new ones. |
Of course, there's always the big shiny blue sparkles and added sound effect that signals a Shiny Pokémon, so it's not too bad if the Shiny version isn't drastically different. There's still a way to tell them apart.
|
It would be nice to see all of the shiny pokemon in the pokedex instaid of the normal ones. Besides most of them look better than their original color ones.
