Do Shiny Pokemon Look Better/Matter To You?

[giratina519]

I am an INSANE shiny hunter in bw2. But some shinies look almost the same as their properly-colored counterparts, being just a shade lighter/darker than the norm. Some pokemon in my opinion also look better in their normal coloring and just look weird shiny. What do you think?

[kdoll154]

i likez blue gallade!(shiny gallade.)

[SpiralBreeze]

I agree. Some shinies just look strange and I don't like the colors that were chosen for them. While others like a slightly different colored Pikachu doesn't even make a difference. I think the red Gyarados is the most striking shiny.

Fav shiny:reshiram- least fav: garchomp. Can't even tell its shiny except for the shiny intro in battle.

[Andami]

Metagross, Gardevoir, and Cahndelure looks amazing as shinies. Others like Mewtwo, Krookodile, and Charizard do not. It's all up to personal opinion, I guess.

[Saints5]

Charizard looks good shiny, but Charmander and Charmeleon don't look that great, personally there are some shinies that just look awful like Shiny Salamence or Shiny Lickylicky

[giratina519]

My shiny Salamence is disappoint. It challenges you to a 1-on-1 in the wifi room.

[Saints5]

Salamence vs. Salamence? Sure

[giratina519]

Sure. Lemme get to the wi Fi room. You already have my FC.

[giratina519]

Where are you?

[Saints5]

I'm there now

[giratina519]

One on one!!!!!!

[Saints5]

I know, but it was in my battle box

[giratina519]

Now that I won, you have to admit that shiny Salamence isn't awful. You hurt it's feelings....

[Saints5]

It's strong, bt it still doesn't look that good

Anyways, good match.

[giratina519]

Got shiny drapion from gts. Looks cool, but not much differecnce from the regular one. Considering adding it to my team though, oddly enough.

[kdoll154]

[Centrix]

I try to stay away from shinies at all time. I just don't like them.

[giratina519]

So, you think all shinies look horrible?

[Centrix]

No, Metagross looks awesome when its shiny.

[giratina519]

What about charizard, ho oh, reshiram, umbreon, Jolteon, gallade, Glaceon, eevee, and tyranitar? My fav shinies.

[Showsni]

Shame it's impossible to get a (real) shiny Reshiram, if it's one of your favourites...

 

I usually do make any of my properly IVed/EVed Pokémon shiny, just because, though sometimes the shiny form looks hardly any different (my first non SRed shiny was a Starly... you can barely tell the difference!). Some are quite striking, though.

[giratina519]

I love shiny reshiram!!!!! Have many.

[giratina519]

Looked at votes. Surprised nobody picked the last one. Have a friend who thinks shinies look absolutely ridiculous....
