This'll probably turn into one of those Shorts that Nintendo takes off my channel one day, happened many times before. Oh well, let's hope for the best and let me know your fav!
Like it’s understandable if they are plot important, but just… some Pokémon are shiny locked because, like gimmighoul’s shiny isn’t shown until you encounter it, it could have just been a soft reset hunt, also event locks aren’t cool either.
I can understand shiny locking in the first games pokemon appear into keep the story consistent and such, but I think that if they appear in any other game besides their debut one, they should be able to be shiny.
@Tsukasasfavouriteboyfriend nope. It's not a glitch. You're wrong. It was never meant to be shiny. The reason pokemon are shiny, is because their PID matches with yours. They accidentally made it so that if it matches with Ash's PID, it's shiny, instead of yours. So you can get a shiny, when you weren't supposed to. So it sparkles, but because it was never meant to be shiny, it doesn't have a shiny variant coded in.
Gimmighoul was obtainable as a shiny in a tera raid event for a short time. There were some people out who shared their shiny raid with others to join. I got one.
First one is unlocked. But only for the Partner cap, in fact it's even huntable right now (or was, idk) but the shiny Partner cap Pikachu can go into the game
Back in the day when the first did home release there was legit tradable shiny hoopa around idk how but you can get them and stuff I never managed to baragain for one but I tried
I have that shiny Poke ball Vivillon, i got it in X & Y long time ago during Poke Ball Vivillon event, i got it from a trade, for some reason it went through Home track and pass safe when i was transferring it from Pokemon Bank, and i can use it on online battles on Pokemon violet without no issues, but i dont use it very much tho😮
So technically all the shiny locked from violet scarlet can’t be obtained right ? So why is there already pictures of the shinys or did someone just make those ?
Basically it's like, all the Shinies are in there, but there's a code that sorts prevents the value that would turn the Shiny Locks into Shinies from ever being used? Like a locked casino machine y'know? All the prizes are still in there it's just that the chance to gamble for it is gone
I have both hoopa in shiny in surprise trade and it’s stuck in my game lol at time update glitch made it stuck can’t get rid of them tried everything lol😂
I didn't count stuff like Moltres which you can find in the DLC, I included Pokemon that are *fully* shiny-locked, meaning they can't be shiny in any game
I don't care honestly I love the way they are that makes them special like the old legends would you love any of any less now that you know about their shiny counter parts No they're still yours even if the Ot doesn't line up.
