All things Shiny Pokemon

[Hikamaru]

Too many favorite shinies to name, but right now I'm really into shiny Baile Oricorio. I love that reverse coloring.

I like how Oricorio's shinies are basically inverted, because it does make me view them so differently. Baile is like you said, definitely the best shiny of the bunch but I do love Sensu's shiny as well. The powdery sky blue makes its Ghost typing fit really well.

Speaking of inverted colors on Pokemon, has anyone ever confused female Hippopotas for a shiny? In case if you don't know, the male Hippopotas' coloring is what's been shown in all of its official art while the female is the same colors, but inverted. I remember thinking female Hippopotas was a shiny when I first saw it, but the lack of the sparkle animation when a shiny is encountered made me think something was odd, and as I found out later it was just a gender difference thing.

lmao the only shiny that I have that isn't from an event or something is my Shiny Petilil in Moon <3 I mean, I used SOS Chaining to get this qt but srsly i love <3

I did also manage to find a Shiny Geodude in Y but it was in a horde battle and Magnitude killed it lmao rip </3

Ngl my favorite Shiny is def Bellossom, like the purple and pink just makes it so beautiful <3

I'd just like to say that shiny Starmie is amazing, that is all. ♥

I definitely love that shiny as well. The fact its core turns blue when shiny makes an already beautiful Pokemon like Starmie even more beautiful.

I bet that you'll be hoping to get your own shiny Oddish one day, so that you can evolve it into your beloved Bellossom. I like how Bellossom's shiny reminds me of that one Sugimori art where its body was dark blue instead of green, and while the shiny isn't exactly blue, the purple does come close.

Wow I'd actually never seen a shiny Sensu Oricorio until now! Its's super cool, too. I think they're gonna be my next two chains.

I guess I motivated you hahahaha

But you do have to admit blue shinies are very beautiful when used on the right Pokemon.

I'm definitely with you. I feel the only good shiny Eeveelutions are Umbreon and Sylveon.

So I've noticed that yellow is a common shiny colour.

I'm actually upset about that.

Doesn't help most of them are a gross shade of yellow on top of that.
