Favorite Shiny Palettes

[Adam Levine]

Since I'm no good at introductions, I'll just give mine.

I really like Wooper's because it makes it look like a real axolotl. Sure, the 3D games kinda drained some color from it, but I like the kind of pink shiny Wooper has.

Now, I know a lot of people are gonna hate me for this, but I really like shinies that use lime/neon green, like Ursaring, Stantler, and...

...yeah. I really like shiny Espeon. I will agree that the 3D games uglified it, but from Generations III to V it had a lime color I'm sad isn't used on a lot of Pokémon that aren't shiny.

I also think Ralts's is pretty good. Nothing too extraordinary about it, but I do like the blue "hair" and the lavender body a lot.

Speaking of colors that aren't on Pokémon very often, green and purple is a combo I don't see much either, which is why I'm glad we have the Budew family. Sure, the Deino family has that too, but their green is too dark for my tastes.

I really like Boldore's and Gigalith's, too, because the bright blue ores really sell the idea that shiny Boldore and Gigalith are more valuable.

Have you seen Clauncher's and Clawitzer's? Those are also pretty good.

Also speaking of green, I really like shiny Rowlet. Aquamarine is also another favorite of mine, and I like that most of Rowlet's body is aquamarine.

I also really like how the Galar birds' shinies are references to their Kantonian counterparts. If only they weren't shiny-locked...

I also like the shinies of the Galarian Zigzagoon family. You can rarely go wrong with Porygon's color scheme.

Also, here's a link to what all shiny Pokémon look like, if you're not familiar with many of them.

Blue Shinies tend to be my favorites.

Also love some of the pink guys.

Purple/fuchsia can also look nice!

Pastel pink ones, great examples being ones icycatelf posted. So good! I also really like yellow shinies pre-3D era.

They're so pretty, especially the Swablu line. In 3D they lost a lot of color though and seem more mustard-y which I don't like as much :<

Story time!

When I was 7, I was terrified of absolutely every kind of animal. One day, I went shopping with my mother and she was buying fish food or something when she turned around I was holding a yorkshire terrier puppy. She couldn't believe it and the following day she went back and bought that puppy, which we named Bobby. On his last days, he looked exactly like a shiny Herdier. Ever since he passed, I shiny hunt for a male Lillipup/Herdier and name it Bobby on every Pokémon game I get.

So yeah, definite favorite:

Other favorites:

i really like the black and white ones. they just look so sleek to me.

Ho-oh is an outlier, but the colors here were executed so well.

Some of my favorites include those with the intense blue colors.

I love several with the black/gold/white colors too. It's a very sleek look.

in full agreement with this post. blue/gold shiny palettes are so good.

special mention to the pink shiny colour palettes because those for the most part are done really well too!

Anything that goes pink, to be honest. I'm simple like that, haha.

And slurpuff because it literally becomes food colored and I adore it!

I have always been a fan of Fraxure's shiny palette, I think it's the intense blue eyes and darker body that do it for me. I also like a lot of green shiny Pokemon since favourite colour and anything black is good too.
