The normal blue colour fits the water type, ocean going, deep sea nature of Kyogre.

Wow, I've never seen a shiny Tentacruel before! How the hell did that one slip under the radar? Definitely the shiny one, love it.

Normal without a doubt. I really don't like the choice of color that they went for with the shiny.
Next up is Girafarig

I'm gonna go with normal. I like the blue on the shiny, but definitely not the cream color on it.

Normal, that mustard-y yellow is icky and clashes with the pink tongue.
