Pokémon Favorite Shiny Pokemon!

[xSuperMario64x]

So one of my most favorite things to do in Pokemon in shiny hunting, and as such I have quite a few shinies that I'm a big fan of. There are a ton that I really love but these are my absolute favorites (not in any specific order, although the first three are in top-3 order):

Spoiler: Reasons why I love each one, yall don't have to read this but jic you're wondering why

Absol: I really love the red/white color scheme here, I just think it looks super sleek and nice. I also love the green eyes.
Espeon: I legitimately love the bright neon green color of Espeon. It kinda looks like an alien species.
Zoroark: I think the purple and yellow on this one looks super cool, and those happen to be my favorite colors! (Waluigi Zoroark anyone??)
Reshiram: The gold rings on this one are a really nice accent to the white color, plus the red eyes look super cool.
Gigalith: The blue spikes are neat looking; they actually look like real crystals.
Giratina: I think this one grew on me more than anything. Giratina is my favorite legendary, plus the blue/silver color is really cool.
Suicune: That blue hair is FABULOUS
Altaria: This was my first ever favorite shiny, so I've always had a soft spot for it. Its golden color is very nice.
Obstagoon: Bruhhh how can you NOT love that color scheme lol

Post your favorite shiny pokemon here! I'd like to see who everyone else's favorites are
(I already know someone's favorite shiny here *cough* *cough* MapleSilver *cough* Chandelure *cough*)

Shiny Galar Ponyta and shiny Noctowl are my favorites
I hatched a shiny Galar Ponyta last year after only 5 eggs of trying It was my first time actively shiny hunting, so it was very exciting!

 

[EsjaTheWolf]

I’ve got 3 favorites!
Umbreon: Black with blue rings? That’s just gorgeous.
Rockruff: Rockruff was already adorable, but put it in blue?! So. Freaking. Cute. Haven’t managed to get one yet though!
Galarian Zigzagoon line: I think you summed it up for me lol

There are so many good ones but I LOVE Shiny Sylveon. I don't usually like blue but those colors together are perfect.
Shiny Lopunny, the simple change of yellow to pink is adorable and mega Shiny Lopunny, now that is one heck of a Pokémon! Those two are just my favorite!

 

[MyLifeIsCake]

Might be biased, since it was the first wild shiny I remember catching in X, but I love Phantump's shiny form, it looks like Autumn leaves and birchwood.

Roserade is another great one, with the rose swaps from blue and red to purple and black.

Ninetales was always a fav shiny of mine, I remember years ago someone traded me one and I named it Snowflame.

Some of my other favorites are Scolipede, Saladit, Palossand, and Rimombee~

I've always really loved shiny umbreon, the blue just looks so nice with the design. I like most of eevees evolutions.
Shiny ninetails is also a favorite of mine.
I also really love shiny bulbasaur. Honestly, it's not that much different from the original colors, but it looks really nice.

 

[InstantNoodles]

My first ever full-odds and completely random shiny encounter was a golduck so I guess that's my favourite shiny... It doesn't look much different from regular golduck though

 

[Midoriya]

My only shiny, and my first, was an Azurill I encountered in Pokémon X/Y. It’s an Azumarill now, but it’s safe to say that shiny Azumarill is my favorite. Just look at this golden cutie.

 

[Millysaurusrexjr]

There's a ton I'm sure that I have always loved but the first one that comes to mind is Chandelure. Pretty cute and spooky

Oh, and who doesn't love a ditto?

 

[Neb]

Ratatta was the first full-odds shiny Pokémon I ever caught. Found in Castelia Sewers, this little guy has an eye catching, yet light shade of yellow. Sadly they turned shiny Ratatta nuclear green in X and Y.

This is easily my most sought after shiny. They took Dhelmise, my favorite ghost type, and turned it’s seaweed bright red. The contrast with the rusted anchor looks so cool...

The bald eagle Pokémon’s shiny is red, white, and blue. What more can you ask for? Jokes aside, the dark blue feathers pop out more than regular Braviary’s red.

The purple face does a wonderful job conveying Spiritomb’s corrupt character.

 

[Snek]

My favourite shiny is Aegislash. Aegis is also my favourite Pokemon but that's not the reason why its shiny is good. Its shiny form is more ominous as if its been soaked in blood. The red, black and gold all go together perfectly and just so aesthetically pleasing!

 

[Dunquixote]

I liked shiny Lucario/riolu. I never got it while, playing, but would’ve loved it if I had.

 

[Kars]

these are only the ones I could remember off the top of my head hdjffhdkghf you can see some running themes here...

 

[toxapex]

My favorite has to be Brelloom, as Kars posted above. I love the big red mushroom. Normal brelloom is also good but I love the red/orange..... makes me think of autumn

 

[Mr_Persona]

I have no idea what is my favorite. They're all beautiful looking!

He's the gold winning egg for easter!

 

[Cosmic_Crossfade]

This is a tough one! Probably shiny Latios, Latias, and sentret haha

 

[Alienfish]

Basically any Eeveelution, especially Espeon and Umbreon though.

I also really like shiny Ho-Oh, Roserade, Skuntank, Dragonite, Kyogre, Groudon, Rayquaza, Lopunny. Probs more.

I think shiny fomantis, misdreavous and spinda are in my top favorites because I love the green!~
Recently I've been shiny hunting in Pearl (soft resetting) and Platnium (double encounter method) hoping to get a shiny buneary, giratina and spiritomb.. they just look so lovely! I've already gotten Uxie from SR's and I love the challenge of Shiny hunting>:3

 

[Dunquixote]

Looking at this thread again has made me really miss Pokemon. I am just so bad with the iv and the other complicated stuff . That shiny ditto - me want.

There is a shiny hunting method? I am intrigued. I haven’t been playing Pokemon since X & Y and never realized that you could farm shinies even then.

Yup! Each game has its own ways of shiny hunting and in every game before gen 6 the legendaries are not shiny locked and you can soft reset! In DPPT you can use a pokeradar or masuda as your best methods but there are npc’s in certain areas that only appear once throughout gameplay and you’ll double battle wild pokemon together which let’s you have 2 rolls at a shiny however it’s still full odds and painful

Also, X&Y is one of the games with the MOST methods of shiny hunting because pokeradar is in that game, fish chaining is a thing, masuda breeding is always a option and random encounters in safari zones which naturally have higher odds than anywhere else in the game. These areas you can visit and the pokemon inside are determined by your friends! There are tons of shiny hunting tips and tricks out there :3
