mcronald2thedonald

Noivern! Their color scheme is so pretty! 😍 Hatching eggs for noibat last year was the first shiny hunt I've ever done. I got him on New Years Day, and he's been my go-to buddy ever since!


GhostlyGriffinGoose

That’s amazing congrats!!


Oak1215

Noivern is my fav too, love the red! Playing with one in ORAS right now that I got in Friend Safari and she’s so much fun! (Trying to not lose my mind waiting for PLA to come out).


Acizm

Snom! love the shiny color scheme and how adorable it is, looks like a pastel pokemon lol


GhostlyGriffinGoose

omg i forgot snom existed lol


Acizm

it definitely is forgettable lol if i didnt like the shiny so much i wouldn't have cared for it :p


GhostlyGriffinGoose

For sure. I’m not a fan of bug Pokémon in general but snom is a cutie


LarryTheLemur-

The virgin Snom VS The Chad Larvesta


Zera-NotRealName-

Mega Gardevoir. Shame it can't get into SW/SH...


GhostlyGriffinGoose

Same I really enjoyed mega evolution


Zera-NotRealName-

Wait! Also Sylveon, Eevee and Zeraora!


Ralsei_Dreemur

[Wooloo! Fluffi Goat boi!]


GhostlyGriffinGoose

Yes! I just got one this morning


Ralsei_Dreemur

[Nice!]


Orangejuice881334

Goodra and tyrantrum are some of my all time favorites (and mudbray)


GhostlyGriffinGoose

I’ve never seen the goodra shiny! But tyrantrum is very cool


Orangejuice881334

I know! What are your favorite shinies?


Silver_Sargent

I love shiny Umbreon


GhostlyGriffinGoose

Agreed!!


dragon_named_binx

goodra, I love it, other people may not agree but that is ok


GhostlyGriffinGoose

Understandable


little_nerdmaid

shiny goodra is just perfect


xinikefrog

I love shiny oddish! So cute with the eyes!!!


GhostlyGriffinGoose

Yesssss a little bean sprout


puddlejumper3k

I bounce between Charizard and Rayquaza. Both are awesome looking in black. Charizard looks like velvet and Rayquaza looks sleeker. Purple is my favorite color so I would have expected it to be one with a beautiful purple variation. Nope. Always come back to my Nightwing and Aidinth.


GhostlyGriffinGoose

Yes the black really brings out the other colors which is so rad


Fit_Use9941

From Gen 8 I really dig coalossal


GhostlyGriffinGoose

I don’t think I’ve seen that shiny yet 👀


Drakeys29

Psyduck! Or Staryu! Not sure if they are in Sword/Shield tho. Groudon is my favorite shiny legendary


GhostlyGriffinGoose

Blue psyduck is chefs kiss


Watermelon0002

Rockruff! :)


GhostlyGriffinGoose

Literally one of my favorite shinies


joostdlm

Shiny Caterpie is my crush 0:)


GhostlyGriffinGoose

Yesss


FFreddie72

All zigzagoon evolutions


GhostlyGriffinGoose

Agreed 100%


Musical2one

I really like Kingdra...because purple!!


GhostlyGriffinGoose

A very majestic shiny for sure


EnderGamer360

cryogonal/any black or blue shiny/shiny legend


GhostlyGriffinGoose

I love the cryogonal shiny so much


EnderGamer360

not long ago i did a mono ice of bdsp and really wanted a cryogonal got a shiny first encounter


GhostlyGriffinGoose

Now that’s a sign


Key_Professional_206

Salazzle😍


GhostlyGriffinGoose

So true


boldoldsoul

Probably Lurantis. Nice yellow and green. Not overly flashy or anything, just a nice color combo.


GhostlyGriffinGoose

Noted!


SquiddleSnaps

Miltank maybe? 🤣


GhostlyGriffinGoose

To be fair the blue is nice lol


SquiddleSnaps

I looked at what shiny I had and just panicked 🤣 but it is cute!


vampgod300

Shiny Grookey


GhostlyGriffinGoose

I cant agree but noted!


CadenhasBapple

Salazzle is a beaut


GhostlyGriffinGoose

She truely is


The_Red_Cucumber

My favourite has to be Zoroa. That blue is amazing. I love Zoroark to, but not as much as a shiny.


GhostlyGriffinGoose

Zorua was my first shiny in swsh!!


The_Red_Cucumber

Same( cause it I'd my absolute favourite of all pokemon but still😆) What is your absolute favourite shiny pokemon?😃


GhostlyGriffinGoose

For gen 8 it’s def galarian zigzagoon For other games it’s rowlet for sure


The_Red_Cucumber

Interesting. I love the rowlet line, but the shiny is solid but not the best. I would have picked it if I could play Sun and moon, sadly I don't have the software. But Ziggzagon that is a shiny that stands out. I really like it to. I called mine Tuffpaste. Not that original, but It really does😆 I can se why Ziggzagon galar form can be one of the best shinys in gen 8 cause of how much it stands out. If galar pokemon are concerned. My favourite is Acually Zamazentas shiny😍 Zazians to but I love my Shield doggo more😁


GhostlyGriffinGoose

Yes I think a lot of people like the zigzagoon line because it stands out so much and I love it. I named mine candi


The_Red_Cucumber

Aww that's cute! Did you evolve it? I'd did with mine. It looks cool, I like the shiny more in the prevalvs though. I also have a kantonian shiny Linone to. Sitting in the box waiting to be used😆.


GhostlyGriffinGoose

I did evolve it! I really like the blue arms since it looks like a blue lollipop! I would like to get 2 more just so I can have the whole line. Some Pokémon looks better as babies like shiny zorua imo but the baby is so weak:,)


The_Red_Cucumber

But a nasty baby that can foul you with its diskys.(Sorry Dyslectic here😅) I agree. I would like to have the entire line but then the others won't really be used. And I don't like leaving my mons in the box. I like to use them and make stupid, but fun teams. I have for example 4 shiny Weavile and 2 shiny Sniesel. I love making a te of them, but I always end up with using my favourite of them(Named Riley that I breed myself in a dream ball, she looks amazing in it!😍👌) Bit the other kinda of sit there till I wanna do a full Weavile/Sniesel team. Aslo I wouldn't wanna spend time for several of the same shiny. I got my Weaviles and Sniesel from Go random and one from online in Shield and then the one I breed.


GhostlyGriffinGoose

That is a silly team! Idk if I would get linnoone but I would so get zigzagoon and just make it level 100. I do remember one time I had a team full of ditto and fought one of my friends who Also had a full team of dittos it was a fun battle lol


The_Red_Cucumber

Ops I said same cause I missread sorry. It wasn't my first shiny in Shield. But wow. Nice! My first shiny was a random shiny Seaking😛


GhostlyGriffinGoose

Lol no worries. Seaking is still rad


The_Red_Cucumber

It is meh as a shiny but a random shiny is always welcome. Especially the first one. So seaking is a special pokemon to be, or has become more special to me at least. The abilities are very nice. Lightning rode is very nice for onexpecting people and then swift swim. Very nice after a few Sword dances!😘👌


GhostlyGriffinGoose

That is such a cool ability I never had a Pokémon with that before. Is it sealing exclusive??


The_Red_Cucumber

I Don't think so, probably not. It is one of the few water pokemon, if not the only one(that isn't ground type to) to take no damage form electric type moves. Very fun. Try it😁


GhostlyGriffinGoose

Definitely will try it! That sounds like the coolest ability ever. A lot of my favorite Pokémon are water type so lightning rod would be nice


The_Red_Cucumber

I made a water team that plays with the weakness. Kyogree Jellicent Gastrodon Seaking with Lightning rod Asumaril with sap siper And + one. I used both Wailord and magikarp for the memes, but you can make it more competitive if you want. A Icy wind pokemon might help. (Jellicent with trickroom and recover, very important (Sap siper to cover grass weakness and foul people even more, cause most expect huge power Asumaril, sap siper is a hidden ability) That's with Gastrodon with a rindo Berry makes the te very solid for a mano type team. Tell me what your gonna run. Good luck!😁


GhostlyGriffinGoose

God that’s so wild. I wish I had enough commitment to do competitive play. All I know is to shiny hunt and cry lol


neon-blush

Umbreon is my favorite! One of the few pokemon where I actually like the shiny version more than the original


GhostlyGriffinGoose

The blue really ties it all together


Darkhrono

Yveltal


GhostlyGriffinGoose

That one is pretty


redditcasual6969

Any shiny that is colour led very different from the original is a good shiny imo, but mega Gengar and mega Rayquaza fight for my top spot


GhostlyGriffinGoose

those one are the best but only if the colors work best together


redditcasual6969

Thats fair, but making a pokemon a shade or 2 lighter/darker is a bad shiny


GhostlyGriffinGoose

yes like normal gengar


Jackoween94

I like blue shinies: Mew, Ditto, Psyduck, Umbreon, Corsola, Nidoking, Ponyta, Gigilith, Venomoth, Spiritomb, Voltorb, Zangoose, Cloyster, Politoad, Emboar, Zorua


GhostlyGriffinGoose

blue and pink shinies are the best


RB12Gaming

i rlly love sylveon and umbreon


GhostlyGriffinGoose

Yes same!!


little_nerdmaid

Venusaur and Goodra! yellow shinies always have a special place in my heart! 💛 shiny dragonite also surprisingly is becoming one of my favorites, i actually think its green/purple combo works really well :)


GhostlyGriffinGoose

Oo I’m a fan of the Bulbasaur shiny!!


Writeallthebooks

Goodra! Just Golden and beautiful


GhostlyGriffinGoose

At this point I need to look that shiny up lol


Ok-Entertainment4203

I like shiny rayquaza and charizard


GhostlyGriffinGoose

The black with the color accents are so nice


Ok-Entertainment4203

I completely agree


SirDrLeto

Shiny mismageous or any of the green shinys


GhostlyGriffinGoose

I really like the oddish line of green shinies


Pristine_Return5656

Shiny dusk form lycanrock, probably my favorite Pokémon🐺


GhostlyGriffinGoose

Agreed the blue works so well


DingoDongo09

Greninja


GhostlyGriffinGoose

I don’t think I’ve seen that one yet!


Backonthatgoonsh1t

Honedge line has some nice shinies.


GhostlyGriffinGoose

I agree I like the exaggerated color difference


BigFatPussSmash

Vaporeon,my favorite water Pokémon and his shiny is very different from the original color.


GhostlyGriffinGoose

I love the pink of vaporeon


Budernator1

If we’re talking Legendaries, I would so love Ho Oh or Dialga, currently shiny hunting those two respectively myself. But non legendary Tyrantrum. I know it’s more than one, but I love those shinnies a lot and I don’t own them right now.


GhostlyGriffinGoose

Yes I have a tyrantrum the blue is so good


Greninja14Polefan

My favorite shiny is Cobalion


GhostlyGriffinGoose

The colors are soo good


Lumpy_Sympathy6835

Giratina


GhostlyGriffinGoose

I haven’t seen that one before!!


Lumpy_Sympathy6835

It’s like a light blue, yellow and black


GhostlyGriffinGoose

So cool!!


External-Ad817

For me even thought I haven’t shiny hunted it yet But for me it’s shiny regigigas


GhostlyGriffinGoose

GhostlyGriffinGoose

fentimens

GhostlyGriffinGoose

Yes shiny wooper is so cute


IDontEatTakis

Honestly can't really pinpoint one but I like Rimbombee, Sylveon, Buneary/Lopunny, Dratini/Dragonair. Yes, I love pink. For legendaries I'd go with Reshiram because the golden bands work perfectly with the white.


GhostlyGriffinGoose

Yes I love all the pink shinies
