Caught this Shiny Heart patterned spinda, so obsessed with her. Her little broken heart. Ugh. This is the only spinda pattern I like so I feel lucky

 

[Coach]

I caught 4 shinies during the Sinnoh Tour today, I'm very happy! Azelf isn't my regions lake trio which makes it even cooler, and white basculin was new out on routes today. Looking forward to being able to evolve him!

 

[Midoriya]

I just encountered and caught a full odds (no mass outbreak and early game) shiny Drifloon in Pokemon Legends: Arceus!!

Spoiler: shiny Drifloon summary

 

[JemAC]

Turns out it's been a while since I posted in this thread and I've caught quite a lot of shinies in PoGo since then;

A few shadow ones - Mewtwo and Raikou in their raids and a Trapinch that is now Flygon from the rocket leader battle

Spoiler

Some of my recent favourite legendary shiny catches - after doing loads of Kyogre raids when it was around last year and not getting a shiny I actually managed to get both Kyogre and Groudon on their raid days, then traded them with my sister and a friend who also had them to get lucky ones. During the Sinnoh tour I caught two shiny origin Palkia while my sister got two Dialga instead so we traded one to each other.

Spoiler

A couple of other top picks from the tour weekend - was so happy to hatch shiny Pachirisu as that was my aim for the event and I already had a shiny Piplup so was nice to complete that trio with the other starters.

Spoiler

Just some random ones - Spheal is one of my favourite Pokemon was getting a shiny with a scarf was a great moment and shiny Ditto was a pleasant surprise.

Spoiler

Won't include the pictures for others as there are a lot but also caught shiny versions of;

• community day Mons - Grubbin, Timburr, Wooper (including my first Shundo with the Paldean one), Mareep, Rowlet, Porygon, Chansey, Bagon, Bellsprout and a bunch of random ones from the December catch up day.
• other legendaries, etc - Genesect, multiple Suicune, Raikou and Entei, Guzzlord, Cobalion, Reshiram, Therian Landorus, Latios and Latias, Zelf and Uxie
• raids - Hisuian Samurott and Decidueye, plus Heracross, from their raid weekends and Gengar, Absol and Sceptile from mega raids.
• randoms - Skorupi, Pumpkaboo with the Halloween costume, Phantump, Ralts, a few Voltorbs (regular and Hisuian), Bulbasaur, Skarmory, Amaura, Galarian Darumaka, Dratini, Rockruff, Turtonator, Spinda, Mime Jr., Wimpod, some Pikachu with hats and quite a lot more
• plus a whole load of Bronzor, even considering the perma-boosted odds it has - swear every other one I click is shiny

And finally my Mew! Which can now join my shiny Celebi while I work towards Jirachi (if I ever find more Kecleon) and Shaymin

Don’t have pictures of them, but other than my shiny Bellsprout I caught the other day on PoGo, I found a shiny Drifloon and Sabeleye on PoGo too. Been having some pretty good luck here recently.

 

[Disneyfangirl23]

Don’t have pictures of them but yesterday on Scarlet I caught a shiny Sudowoodo

And today I hatched a shiny male klawf and caught a shiny Glimmora

 

[Chris]

I caught a shiny Aipom this morning during a mass outbreak in Pokémon Legends: Arceus.

 

[skarmoury]

forgot to share 'em but I got two shinies on my first day playing Pokemon Sleep, around 3 weeks ago I don't use em now but I just think they're neat!! I'll definitely evolve croagunk one day when I have enough resources hehe.

 

[Rainbowhorn]

Stopped my hunt for Mareep on Pokémon Y since it hasn't really gone anywhere, I'm gonna go for something easier and try to get a shiny Ivysaur via random encounters on the Friend Safari, wish me luck!

Stopped my Hunter for Mareep on Pokémon Y since it hasn't really going anywhere, I'm gonna go for something easier and try to get angry Ivysaur via random encounters on the Friend Safari, wish me luck!

UPDATE:

THIS HAS BEEN MY SHORTEST HUNT EVER OMG!!!
I'm naming him Tamanegi

Here are all the shines that I got recently .

Shinies that I got during the TBTWC:

Spoiler: Pokemon Arceus

From the outbreak that happened after I cleared all the murkrows, I got this one

When I saw the sparkle, I thought I found a shiny Kirlia, but it ended up being Gardevoir.

I was going to skip this one but I wanted more berries; I’m glad I didn’t skip it

Spoiler: Pokemon Violet

My first shiny in Pokemon Violet! I got it in my last egg .

Shinies that I got today so far:

Spoiler: Pokemon Violet Terra Raids

My first shiny of the day . I had no idea that we could get shinies from raids until yesterday, when a friend got a shiny raid. Thanks to that, I decided to do more raids again now with tbtwc over (only 1-3 star since I haven’t progressed much yet).

I was thinking of not catching it since I already have a snubbull when I first saw it (couldn’t see the colors well), but when it prompted me to catch or not catch, I thought the colors looked different from the normal one, so I decided to catch it. Good thing I did!

I caught this one since I didn’t have one yet. Was a nice surprise to see it was a shiny . I didn’t see the pokedex entry pop up even though I didn’t have it .

I just caught this one! If I hadn’t seen a screenshot in the shiny pokemon event thread, I wouldn’t have known this was a shiny at first glance.

I really wish I got these when the event was still going on, but I’m still really happy and excited that I got them .

 

[Rainy.Nights]

This took forever

 

[skarmoury]

RARGHHH I finally did it! I wanted a shiny female popplio for a while now, and I knew it was gonna be a challenge since there's such a low chance for female starters to appear. i was determined and here she is!! took 14 shiny male popplios before i finally encountered a shiny female popplio, but she is so worth it. I'm so happy!!

she came in early during my sandwich so i decided to go around the beach and try to find a shiny galarian slowpoke, but i found him instead! 2 for 2 shiny starters with a single sandwich is a win

Baby .

Next shiny you post is going to be Wooloo ::naurr::; manifesting lots of luck for your shiny hunt .

I’m worried I’m annoying everyone on discord with my shiny pictures (and also trade stories), so time for me to share some here .

I’ll post a couple for now since I got a lot since my last post here .

Spoiler: shinies from eggs

This was my second shiny from an egg! Wooper and Quagsire are two longtime favorites of mine . I named it Ditto (couldn’t think of anything better ); I may change it to something better later .

My third shiny from an egg! It didn’t take that many eggs (or at least teddiursa ones lol).

Spoiler: Tera Raid Shinies

I love Shinx, Luxio and Luxray and their shinies . Strangely, they weren’t a favorite of mine until somewhat recently. I got a shinx shiny in Arceus (long before they patched up the shiny hunting method), but I didn’t transfer it yet. I want to try to get their shiny in Violet first before I transfer it and other shinies I got in Arceus.

Two of the hacked pokemons that I got in a surprise trade were Porygon2 and Z, so I was really happy to get one of them in a raid. I hope I can eventually get a shiny Porygon and Porygon2, ideally I’d want two shiny Porygons; one to keep in its base form and another to evolve.

So derpy and cute

Spoiler: Sandwich Shinies

Sorry for bad screenshot . My very first sandwich shiny. It was very difficult to spot. I wanted this guy since i got it’s final evolved form in surprise trade but it was hacked. I haven’t evolved it yet. I’m waiting until I need to use and build it or for something to do with my home living dex. I hope to get more so I can have a shiny version of each of its forms and one copy to keep stored in my game. At the same time, I don’t want to get it from a sandwich again because it was so small and hard to spot.

Found this guy when I was trying to get a shiny Iron Hands. Didn’t get shiny iron hands from this sandwich.

I got him later . Belly drum is so fun.

I love delibird so ofc I had to get the shiny paradox version of it! I kinda like its regular version better though because it is more colorful.

I got a shiny hacked scizor in a surprise trade i think so i had to get my own; scizor has been one of my favorite shinies too so I wanted it either way .

Baby . It also has a zero energy mark .

I got a shiny hacked ditto from a trade on the pokemon home gts so i had to get my own; I’ve wanted it for a long time either way

I love shiny Alolan Raichu. It looks so cute surfing .

I lost a shiny mimikyu with the smiling mark since my game glitched out and I restarted and forgot to save, so I’ve been trying hard to get it again. I finally got this one earlier. Not the right mark, but I’m still really happy.

I got a lot of shiny Mimikyu’s though in the process; I started this event with none lol.

I traded one shiny Pikachu and Shiny Raichu (so there should be one of them both in addition to what are in the pictutes if I hadn’t traded them). I got two raichus and pikachus with marks too! Two pikachus have the dawn mark and one raichu has the uncommon mark

 

[azurill]

Today I found a shiny Bellossom in Violet.

Spoiler: Recent shiny finds

4 Pichu’s

Happy to be having better luck lately finding shiny Pokemon.

 

[Disneyfangirl23]

So I decided to start again on LETS GO EEVEE today and I got a shiny Caterpie! No shiny charm just Lure
