Official Shiny Discussion [ Black and White only ]
Encountered your first shiny in Black and White yet? ...Or maybe you are hunting for them. Either way, this is the thread for you to post about your shiny encounters with the new Gen V pokémon! You may also discuss and give your thoughts about the shinies now that they have been revealed.
|
Well I haven't encountered one yet as I don't have the game yet haha, but color-wise the one that really caught my eye was Pokabu's final stage evo. I love the blue flames in particular.
|
I love Ononokusu's shiny.. ;A; I'll definately be trying for a shiny one once I get the game... the english game. :3
|
I find most of the 5th generation shinies... strange. It's as if all of those that evolve has their color changed DRAMATICALLY to the point where it almost makes them seem like separate Pokemon... But that's just me. :B
|
The shiny versions of Zoroark and Candlebra look amazzzingg. :D Embuoo looks pretty goofy being neon blue though, and Zekrom looks no different. :/
|
How do they look I haven't seen any images of them, do you guys have any I want to see them :D!
What color is Shiny Zekrom? |
There's a link in the first post, Mag. :P
|
Shiny wargle is amazing =0
|
Zoroark and Zorua look terrible shiny. I like most of them though, especially the legendary Pokemon.
|
i cant tell the difference between the shiny puppy and its original xD
and has anyone found any shinies yet? *have you cracked the rng :o*? |

The shiny forme of the Ice/Dragon is exactly the way that I wanted it to be normally! Gray body with Purple eyes! <3
|
Quote:
Well the ice dragon eyes look kind of pink to me not purple or pinkish purple... I like Rashiram's it's awesome :D |
I got Pokemon black recently in Japanese and I am playing it. Sadly I haven't encountered any shinies as of yet, though I've still been actively hunting for shinies. xD
The shiny pokemon which I am looking forward to are: Tsutarja, Mijimura, Emonga, Birijion, Churine, Chroneka, Wargle, Kurumiru and Reshiram, which looks so hot in shiny but not in normal one. xD |

This looks like the sprite discussion which is in Pokemon General. :/
Anywaysss, I definitely love these: http://i56.*.com/2wnu3hl.jpghttp://i51.*.com/2ynhr2v.jpghttp://i53.*.com/16it6qt.jpghttp://i55.*.com/m92e1f.jpg white bg because i uploaded them and i'm lazy. |
Dang, those shinies look very nice. I like Enboo's shiny form the most, those beautiful blue flames... Anyways, I have not encountered any shinies so far in Black yet.
|
Munna looks like a balloon!!! By far the best shiny of gen 5! Doreida looks less fat shiny :)
|
-Futachimaru, Zorua and Zoroark are horrible as shinies.
-I don't see much of a difference between the shiny and original counterparts to Reshiram and Zekrom. -The fully evolved starters are epic as shinies. -Shiny Achen is so vibrant. |
http://i51.*.com/hwbewn.png Best. Shiny. Pokémon. Ever. |
Fairly disappointed Reshriam's shiny form isn't black and Zekrom's white.
Can anyone confirm if the rumors claiming shinies now have a 1/50 of appearing are true? |
I like Korkoromori's, Warubiaru's, and Kurimugan's the best.
But overall, I dont really care, as I'll never get one anyways, according to my luck. Its not bad luck if thats what youre thinking. 4 first time encounter shinies in Platinum. |
Denchura and Bachura = <3
Rankurusu's looks really good - and its pre-evos. Now to use Syd's system of naming... Lady, Candle and Ice Cream looks nice too! And big piggie too. Reshiram looks like royalty, omg. Swana and Emonga are nice too... along with Kibago. Uhhh and big dragon looks terrible I dislike it. |
I think I saw Rankurusu's shiny as somebody's avatar, it was blue with a yellow face. Can somebody confirm this please?
|

There you have buddy: http://i52.*.com/10p90n6.png |
I like Rankurusu and it's pre evolutions shiny forms. Also Gigaiasu's and Ononokusu's is really cool.
|
I like fire moth shiny form too... Colours really suit.
|
I LOVE the pokabu final stage shiny. The blue flames really come out on it xD

|
Just seen the list of shinys for Pokemon B/W, they look good! :D I'd like to see a shiny Gear :).
|
Wow, I love Shandeera's shiny form.
|
Quote:
May I ask where I can get those images from? |
OMG i'm battling a shiny one of these as i type! I can't believe i've found one so early in the game! :P :D
http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/546.png its all golden and shiny, i MUST catch it! EDIT: Just caught it :D Say hello to my first Gen 5 shiny http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/shiny/546.png |
I don't have the game because I don't understand Japanese, but as soon as the game comes out in english. But as for shinies, I don't really try to find any.
|
Wow, i think i;m the first person on the forum to catch a shiny pokemon :P
And no Sperical Ice, the blue one goes a different shade of blu and the gear looks kinda rusty to me XD |
http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/shiny/612.pnghttp://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/shiny/628.png
Ono looks simply amazing as a shiny. I also quite like Woogeru (or whatever his name is). |
the pokabu line's shiny forms look AWESOME
oh and wargle shiny is FTW |
Where are u guys getting these sprites from? And Desukan looks amazing too.

You guys are pretty blind haha,

Apparently those sprites are hard to make transparent, according to TRC. So, you'll have to wait for the other site.
Anyway, the more I think of Denchura's shiny, the more I love it. <3 Oh and I also like Musharna's now. |
Welp it looks like i am the only one.
*claims bragging rights* But is there actually any difference between the monkey trio evo's regular and shiny form? i really cant see a difference. |
I like Abagoora's and Daikenki's shiny forms. Mostly Abagoora's cuz I like turtles. :P
|
*gasp* Totally soft-resetting ofr shiny Reshi~ The rest look...eh
|
Quote:
Personally I still love Zoroark's shiny, although it looks like im the only one. xD Wargle's is quite awesome to boot, even if i already knew it would be blue. |
megurukos final evo is a HUGE improvement as a shiny
|
The Link isnt working for me?
Could someone send em the shiny pic of Gear, gigear and gigigear please? |
I like this shiny, Goruggo.

Shiny Gear for some reason reminds me of something you'd see out of a movie based in the early 1900s, kinda like something vintage haha. Definitely looks better shiny than normal.
|
Does anyone know where I co0uld find shiyn backsprites?
|
I haven't checked to see if all of them are there, but this place has them:
http://veekun.com/dex/pokemon/search?sort=evolution-chain&introduced_in=5 Just select which Pokemon you're looking for and it'll be on their page. |
Quote:
You know, scratch that, I did manage to find some back sprites for you. Scratch that again, the links broke. |
I love shiny Zeburaika, b'cuz he's purple! Yoterri is really cute shiny. Shiny Meguroko's 3rd stage looks more like a ground type, and appropriate. The chandelier and anteater are bad ass shiny, too.
I'm in favor of most of the B/W shiny color schemes! |
I like a bunch of them, but some just could have been better. Say, the ice cream Pokemon could have been brown (chocolate) or pink (strawberry), and shiny Zekrom/Reshiram should have been white/black, or red/blue respectively.
|
Quote:
|
http://veekun.com/dex/media/black-white/back/shiny/549.pngIs her shiny back sprite just extraordinary? So beatiful.
|
Wow, you're right. It looks... so beautiful. Okay favourite shiny backsprite so far let's just forget I hadn't bothered to look at any others.
|
I had to put Doreida in my sig as her shiny is just so beautiful, especially her flower crown. Such a wonderful colour blend of the pink, aqua and green. I underestimated her elegance :p
|
i caught a shiny cats evolution. i dont know the names
|
Wish i did... I've only seen 2 (non-cheat) shiny pokemon threw-out my 10+ years of playing the games.
|
http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/shiny/609.png
Oh. My. God. <333 Definitely my favorite shiny this gen. (Ever?) |
Ah, I was thinking about mentioning that. It really is awesome. Love the Halloween colours <3
http://veekun.com/dex/media/black-white/shiny/636.png This one looks like Arceus' head :B |

|
Shiny Kurimugan (The Dragon with the Red face/blue body. Can't post pic atm.) looks like something from Viva Piñata.
Shiny Emboar looks just like Phantom Ganon. |
>< i wan a shiny jellyfish pokemon or/and taht fire/bug pokemon :3 its the coolest of them all
|
http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/shiny/494.png
I find this sprite weird and annoying looking. http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/shiny/516.png This one is so uch better than the original http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/shiny/521.png This makes this boring bird actually interesting. |
Quote:
..besides, I already know someone's going to do that. XD Also @ below: Yes Victini looks very weird there D: |
deku <3's the great ball tamagetake! It would've been cooler as a Master Ball though :/
|
Seriously?! haha i REALLY liked Victini's Shiny xDD i like it so much better than it's regular
why am i always someone that likes something other people don;t?! xDD haha oh well b;< Anyway Reshiram looks cool with Gold Bands and Red Eyes though Zekrom looks alot less Aggressive looking without his Red Eyes xD |
I put three of the awesome B/W shinies in my sig!
http://veekun.com/dex/media/black-white/shiny/517.pnghttp://veekun.com/dex/media/black-white/back/shiny/517.png How gorgeous ais Munna! LOVE! http://veekun.com/dex/media/black-white/shiny/648-red.pngRed Meroetta looks pretty awesome shiny too.http://veekun.com/dex/media/black-white/shiny/648-unred.png And so does Unred Meroetta. |
Damn. Shiny Sazando should have been GOLD, not green/purple... :(
|
well i caught my first shiny pokemon in my black game the other day. i am excited.
anyway here it is. dont really like the pokemon but now it will always have a special place in my heart as being my first gen V shiny http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/shiny/588.png |
Quote:
How cute! You are very lucky. cxan someone tell me if the three starters are displayed in the pokeballs and you are able to see if one is shiny? |

This morning I found a shiny Kuitaran outside Victory Road.
|
I've only sampled a few of the shinies:
http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/497.pnghttp://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/shiny/497.png Jaroda: IMO,the shiny sprite is a major improvement from the original, sort of generic one. I disliked how the original had green and pale green overlapping (I know several Grass Pokemon do this, but on Jaroda it seems redundant...). Moreover, the yellow markings look like bananas, which doesn't exactly fit Jaroda's theme... The shiny coloration, however, changes the redundant green into blue coloration. I especially like this because it represents "royal blue", implying Jaroda to be distinguished (which also ties in with its personality that is supposed to be hailing to European royalty, according to Ken Sugimori). Furthermore, the pale green is made into a more vibrant and refreshing green, coupled with the yellow markings becoming a paler yellow and not resembling a banana's coloration anymore... A nicely designed shiny... http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/500.pnghttp://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/shiny/500.png Enbuoo/Pignition/Emboar: The original coloration looks more menacing, IMO. But I love the shiny variant as well. It references how blue fire is even more powerful/hotter than fire with the standard orange/red color... I know the ability "Blaze" doesn't have an animation, but if it did, I would imagine Enbuoo with original coloration glowing red (like the back sprites of fire starters did in Pokemon Emerald Version), then gradually taking on the shiny color. Once Enbuoo turns blue, you know you're in trouble. :D http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/503.pnghttp://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/shiny/503.png Daikenki: I still dislike Daikenki's overall design (especially that oddly placed shell on its head that looks weird, and the freaky white mustache appendages)... However, I feel its actual sprite should have melded aspects of both the original and the shiny versions. The original sprite's shell colors, in combination the shiny sprite's navy blue skin and tannish yellow underbelly would have looked better, IMO. http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/643.pnghttp://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/shiny/643.png http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/644.pnghttp://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/shiny/644.png Reshiram/Zekrom: These 2 legendaries had the most obvious shiny coloration possibilities ever! (black Reshiram w/red eyes and white Zekrom w/blue eyes, to tie into the whole yin/yang theme) These are the shinies of any Pokemon that have disappointed me the most... However, in compensation, I really like how Reshiram has gold accents added into its design (reminiscent of angelic halos); it makes me think that the shiny version should have been the original design. But I think that would take away from the point of all of Reshiram being virtually white, sans the eyes, for the yang concept. Zekrom's shiny is just...bland, IMO. Just green paint spilled onto the original sprite... The 2 things both sprites got right for what I thought they should be is the eye color reversal... I heard Kyuremu (the supposed third member to complement Reshiram and Zekrom) has a gray body and purple eyes for its shiny sprite, which is awesome. I haven't viewed its sprite since that particular Pokemon is a major spoiler I am trying to avoid for now. However, the gray-body purple-eyes concept is great news, since it combines the body and eye colors of Reshiram and Zekrom. :) I'll probably have to resort to PokeSav for the shinies of Jaroda, Kyuremu, and possibly Reshiram... *sigh* I hate it when the good coloration of a Pokemon's design is the shiny variant, because it requires you to either gather up everything for PokeSaving the sprite or embark on the agonizing 1/8192 shiny hunt... Hopefully, there's an item either in BW or the "third version" that makes shiny hunting easier as the PokeRadar did in DPPt (sadly, the shinies I like so far are those "one-time Pokemon," so I can't exactly go 'hunting' for them in the wild... :(). |
Quote:
I agree all the way with you. I don't know how you can throw the concept of yin-yang into two Pokemon, and not reinforce it with the shiny variants. That was not anything more than laziness. I know they had to have thought of that at the very least.. it's not hard, even us fans thought of it. The good thing is they at least switched eye colors like we speculated. Blue went to Zekrom and red went to Reshiram in their shiny forms. |
Quote:
I mean, where the heck did green Zekrom come from? :cer_confused: The only thing relating to that is the jade gemstone, which from what I have heard, is commonly associated with yin-yang. But it doesn't really make sense because Reshiram doesn't display that relation to jade at all; it still remains its original white color with gold additions. |
http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/shiny/640.pngNow she truely is 'My Little Pony'
http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/shiny/604.pngSo beutiful in this green. http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/shiny/595.pngLook at his little purple eyes! <3 http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/shiny/577.pngAWWWEEEE!! http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/shiny/580.pngHaha adorable. http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/shiny/558.pngHe is so awesome in this colour. http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/shiny/563.png A modern day Egyptian coffin thingy. http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/shiny/518.pngIts ass is so blue O.o http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/shiny/631.pngWOW awesome much http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/shiny/618.pngSlightly more tolerable. |
I am the world's proud owner of a shiny Desumasu.
http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/shiny/562.png The only difference I see is that the mask became less valuable; it went from gold to silver. |
Just going to comment on a few more shiny pokémon. :)
http://serebii.net/Shiny/BW/501.pnghttp://serebii.net/Shiny/BW/573.pnghttp://serebii.net/Shiny/BW/596.png ______________________________________________________________

I have got in my game Shiny Minezumi (Watch) and Shiny Choroneko!
|
Hopefully the Masuda Method is in B/W as well. I am sending an English Ditto to my friend's Japanese Heart Gold. She will then transfer that English Ditto to her Pokemon White then trade it to my Pokemon Black just so I can get an English Ditto for the Masuda Method. XD
|
Well, while training my little-wittle Bachuru. I found the same shiny Eurydice found. The shiny Kaburumo!
http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/shiny/588.png |
Lots of shinies in game already! How cool :) I liked that Minezumi catch
|
Quote:
http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/shiny/635.png Anyway, shiny Sazando makes me feel that it's more beast than the original version (but that's my opinion). |
Tbh, I prefer the shiny one (Denchura), since it looks nicer than the normal one, which just... looks awkward? I mean, I love Denchura, but the shiny is far more superior than the normal sprite for reasons I can't quite figure out.
|
Quote:
Anyway, for some reason, the shiny Sazando is evoking the image of a mutated Barney... :( Maybe if the purple was changed, it would look better...? |
Quote:
Sazando's colours dont make it look fierce in the shiny sprite. At all. Its looks are threatening but the colours are dull. A bright colour contrasting on a dark colour would work a thousand times better.... |
Any tips on how to get a shiny faster? I was wondering if you can get a shiny from an in-game trade. I kind of want a shiny churine but I'm playing black right now...
Also is it possible to get a shiny legendary? |
Don't know about the other things, but I do know that you can get a shiny legendary. Just keep soft resetting when you face a legendary, after you save. After many tries you'll get it!
I'm assuming you can get a shiny during an in-game trade, but it might be hard, though yeah, not sure. |

I encountered (and successfully captured) a shiny Tamagetake almost immediately after I had entered route 6.
Haven't used/trained it yet though since I'm not too fond of this pokemon species. |
I agree with Corruptodile. Shiny Goruggo is probably the coolest shiny I've ever seen. Aside from Shiny Gengar.
|
Quote:
All these lucky people! Congrats it is so cute <3 The only shinies I have encountered are the ones that know Roar and Teleport :( |
Quote:
If I can just soft reset to get a shiny Churine than I don't have to rely on luck hunting for a shiny Monmen. |
