Ugliest shiny Pokemon

I don't have anything against the color pink itself, but...

pink shinies make my skin crawl. Especially if the pokemon attached looks menacing.
Weavile as an example. Seriously, there are so many colors that fit a shiny weavile better.

Dragonair is an exception. I love Dratini and Dragonair as is, but if their shinies had a bit of darker blue to them they'd be infinitely more appealing to me.

Kommo-o's is so laughably bad that I almost like it. xD

I think for me other than the obvious ungodly WTF were they thinking colors the ones that are just a few shade difference like Plusle.

None, I don't really care for shiny mons even though I like to have them around. I guess the ones that look similar to the actual version are a bit weird but it doesnt bother me.

Shiny Nidoqueen. Just. They had the perfect theme going with Shiny Nidoran female and Nidorina. Why screw it up with that?!

A few come to mind:

- Salamence and Dragonite's shiny colours really disappoint me. Salamence could've gone the way of shiny Charizard and it wouldn't have looked that bad. Dragonite is trickier, but anything other than the awful shiny shade it has currently would do.

- No idea why Espeon is green of all things. Although idk what else would be better for it, tbh.

... I think that's pretty much it for now.

It's kinda annoying that a vast amount of water types have a purple/pink shiny (especially where chain fishing is concerned it'd be cool to see a wider variety of colours for water type shinies)

Apart from that, Garchomp's shiny REALLY annoys me (when I finally got one I could barely tell the difference without the sparkle animation!)

Press F to pay respects to the Shinies that look almost exactly like regular Pokémon.

Dedenne looks pretty ugly, too.

A few more, I suppose!

- I don't like Shiinotic's shiny colours. Brown should never really be an option on it; perhaps something like a light blue would be better, or some shade of a lighter blue but definitely not brown.

- Tauros is yellow for pretty much no reason. Although Tauros is one of those Pokemon where it's a bit difficult to do much with so I'd argue a slight variation would probably be better than just going an all out one colour or the other.

- Machamp's green doesn't really fit it at all.

I honestly think the worst shinies are the ones who hardly change at all! I would take a bad looking shiny over one, like seel for example, that doesn't really change.

y'know, this thread makes me think, are there any green shinies that look good?
