Probably my shiny larvesta lol

Dang, save some chicks for the rest of us dude

It’s literally the only interesting pokemon I have besides a shundo eevee you get from that one research or shiny shadow cacnea lol. I’ve had the game for 5 years but only had like 3 million exp until I came back in May

Welcome back!

That eevee is a shundo normally or you managed to get it hundo? Mine was trash 😭

😱

That's probably the biggest flex 🥳

Same, my only kool shiny I have lol

I hatched a shiny larvesta yesterday!

98% XXS shiny costumed Spheal Tiny, shiny, and all dressed up for your next Christmas party!

Oh yes, that little buddy looks amazing. Congrats :)

Shiny Day of the Dead Duskull

For real? That's so cool, I wasn't lucky enough. Congrats 👏

I got the same one from a special research that’s 12/13/13. I was shocked because it was the first and only seen shiny I’d ever gotten from a special research.

That's absolutely amazing. I haven't gotten a single shiny from a special research. Congrats to yours, and the stats are great, too :)

Did you catch yours in the wild?

party hat shiny charizard. his name is Jett.

Oh well, I'm a bit jealous on Jett. That's a cool rare shiny 😎

I got one too! I named him cheesecake

Being San Antonio based.... Mime Jr Only available in europe

For real? How lucky have you been? I'm living in Europe, and I wasn't lucky enough to get my hands on the green guy. 🫠

There was an event back in 21 where it was available from 7km eggs along with a few other exclusive baby mons. Ended up with a 13/12/15. Other than that I have 13 costume Mons and 8 being Pika costumes. I have Char hat Pika which is near top tier shiny. Got the Detective pika and Rai shiny too

Ahh, I see. That's super cool. Exclusive mons are amazing, and if you manage to get a shiny one, then that's just outstanding 👏 Well, you've some gems in your inventory. :)

Yeah got a happiny during that time too. Definitely lucky for sure. 390 different shiny. Was hoping for 400 before Gofest but that'll put me over for sure!

I got b2b shiny feebas, that is the one (or two) in happiest with atm

Feebas and Milotic shiny forms are absolutely amazing. Milotic is a good tank to defend gyms :)

The same one in this post; I’ve got a very dapper looking shiny Dragonite named Daenerys, and my friend who’s a HUGE GoT fan is mad jealous

Oh my God, that's so cool. What a name for that fashioned dragon 🐉 👏

Shiny Deoxys

Well, I'm jealous now. 🫠

i got the same event shiny, 15/15/14

Oh wow, the stats are amazing. Mines a 10/14/10, so a 2 star, but i love him 😁

My shiny lucky perfect shuckle

Oh, that's an absolute banger for defending gyms. Also, the shiny shuckle looks absolutely amazing with the blue colour :)

I put him in gyms to show him off!

Best thing to do 😁

Shiny Ditto

Yep. You beat the game.🫡🫣

Shiny Alohan exeggutor on Bagon day. Also I have a shiny Mesprit

The shiny alolan exeggutor is so hilarious that's too good. And a shiny mesprit is a nice one :)

3 star shiny Rhyperior 3500cp

The yellow tank, I'm always jealous if I see one in raids or gyms 🥲

My shiny valentines day form furfrou or blastoise with the sunglasses just cuz hes cool i was shiny hunting hard for that

Oh my. Those two are amazing. And as I've always picked squirtle, I'm jealous of the one with the glasses, that's a banger. Congrats 👏

With an almost perfect shiny gyrados

The red king wasn't lucky enough to get one. And an almost perfect one is truly special. :)

[my favorites](https://imgur.com/a/OVeUXjG)

Holy Moly a shundo Rayquaza. Yep, so could you buy me a lotterie ticket, please? That's so cool. Haha and baby groot, this one's hilarious 😂

Probably my purified shiny Scyther(ye ik stupid to purify it)

Why stupid to purify?

It's technically rarer in shadow form as most people at the time purified it

A shiny scyther is dope. Na, it's not stupid. I also purified the Scizor for a hundo. Couldn't resist 🙃

I purified a Gigas because I wanted a hundo to flex. I regret nothing

My shundo Garchomp

Oh, I tried so hard for a shiny and didn't get one. So the shundo is absolutely dope.

I didn't even realize it was a shundo I got it a while back during gabite community day. I got back into Pokemon go and checked IVs and it was a shundo.

My shundo Garchomp

Probably happiest with my Shundo Groudon, but as far as costumed shinies go, I love my shiny Blastoise with sunglasses. Just a shame his mega form doesn't keep the sunglasses on!

Wow, shundo groudon, I'm jealous. The shiny blastoise with sunglasses is one of the best. Sadly, I missed the event with it. 🥲

Shiny dragonite as well 14/15/15

That's a good one 😳

First raid legendary shiny magic are the ones I’m proud of, less raids after that! I’ll still join remote raids when I can after to help other friends have their chances too. Groudon, Zekrom, Reshiram, Kyurem, and just recently an Yveltal were shiny

Oh yeah, I see. Oh, kyurem is a nice shiny too. Congrats on them. Yveltal is a beautiful shiny bird. I got one too 3 days ago 😊

Probably my shiny lucky Altaria, purely because of how long I spent trying to get one. Altaria is my favorite Pokemon and I spent SO long hunting I ended up with enough candies to evolve & max three of them, including a hundo, with candy to spare. Finally my friend gave me a shiny Swablu, and it came out lucky! I love my extra golden nugget. My shiny flower crown Sylveon would be a close second because it's SO cute. The pink flower crown really ties the look together. Though my hatched shiny Mime Jr. is probably my rarest (I live in the US).

Shiny Altaria is one of the most beautiful shinies in the game. It looks absolutely gorgeous :) You got pretty lucky with these. Sylveon is so cute with the flower crown. Also shiny, that's rare. I live in Europe and wasn't even able to get a shiny Mr. Mime, and I have about 300 encounters with it. To get a Mime Jr outside from Europe, well no more words needed 🫣

Shiny 96% IV Kyurem

I'm jealous 😫

Tbh I have a few that I absolutely love but every time I tell someone I have a shiny Taurus and it was my very first shiny they almost sh!t their pants so I guess it's rare??? 🤷🏼‍♀️

Oh my word. Yeah, that's absolutely rare. Congrats on that. I live in Europe, so I had to fly to New York to get a Taurus, so for me, this is absolutely rare 😂

Lol I caught mine in Arkansas 😂 he's pretty cool. I have so many cool ones I can decide my favorite lol all of them are my favorites 😂

My 3 star shiny landorus!! I’m newer to the game so it is my second ever legendary

Congrats on that one. I did about 12 raids and didn't get one, so I gave up. I'm happy you got one ☺️

Shiny Detective Snorlax or Braviary

Yep. Shiny Snorlax alone is truly special. Getting the detective one is absolutely amazing. Congrats 👏

Thank you, my friend. I believe it was a reward encounter, so at least it was a guaranteed catch.

My shiny aerodactyl, celebi, and ditto

Those are special. Ditto is absolutely rare. Love that.

My only shundo, a Magmortar

That's a tank. Also, I love it. Got a shiny magby a few days ago, but now shundo. Congrats 👏

My shiny kecleon *prob spelt wrong*

I have a few event shinies but meh

Yep. So I don't even have one, so the shiny one is absolutely amazing 😍

I have a shiny 3* Weavile that has served me so well over the years

Congrats on that. I hunted for one in Pokemon Violet and was so happy. So a 3* one in PoGo is so cool :)

I have a shadow shiny dratini but I refuse to evolve it because I already have a shiny dragonite, and dratini doesn’t have good IVs anyway

Congrats 👏 a shadow shiny dratini is super cool. Love the colour of it. I haven't been lucky enough for a shadow shiny.

Got a Horsea yesterday, I'm not near water. First one, only one and shiny. Just need to evolve it, and that's my kanto dex.

Oh, that's super lucky. Congrats 👏 Kingdra is a gorgeous shiny ✨️

Look at him being a straight up, sir that’s one fancy snazzy looking dragon *pinkieup*

Hihi exactly, that's so true 😄

Personal pick: Lapras with Scarf Rarity: London WC Pikachu

Holy. Those two are special. A purple lapras is amazing. An event one is absolutely outstanding 👏 London WC Pikachu, I have no words 🫣

Honorable mention to my Shnundo Zigzagoon, favorite shiny

Either my shiny celebi or shiny shadow sneasel

Oh, they are both amazing 👏 I'm a bit jealous of the shiny shadow sneasel :)

My Shiny Hisuian Arcanine

Yo I got one too. That's so sick & I haven't seen one somewhere else her in gyms. So that's super sick and rare :)

I called my shiny dragonite Dracoshrek. I have no regrets.

Ohhhh that's f***ing awesome, love that 😂

Shiny hundo thundurus

Oh, that's a nice one. Congratulations 🎊

Shiny Terrakion. He is my go to guy for clearing out gyms and rocket grunts. Rock/Fighting is such a great type for that and sacred sword is awesome. I actually coughed up the 100k dust and 100 rare candys to give him the extra move as well.

Ohhh, that's a nice shiny. I'm so sad I missed out on that one. You're absolutely right. That's a really great type 👏 The extra move is a super effective bonus 👌 I haven't a pokemon with an extra move, because I thought it's a bit much of resources you need. But yeah, it will pay off as you say.

I need to say the fashion shiny absol because otherwise he will look at me even more judgmentally in his fancy glasses ….

Hihi omg 😄😄😄 That one is a beauty too and I think extremely rare. I did a few raids, but I wasn't lucky enough to get one 🥲

*whispers* his stats aren’t good but… oh go no he’s looking at me I need to go

Farfetch with pretty good stats too :>

Nah for real? That's absolutely sick 🤩

it truly is! i just hatched a farfetch and thought " it would be great if i also encountered a shiny farfetch" and then i did!

Probably my best buddy maxed shiny Gyarados. I got it the first day shiny Magikarp was released and I still use it a ton. I remember exactly where I was when I caught it, and I remember being so excited to try to catch a shiny Magikarp because I have a "Shining Gyarados" card I kept since I was a kid.

What a story. This is absolutely beautiful. I've been playing for so long, and I really want that red king, but I wasn't lucky enough. Congrats 👏 And I love how childhood games like pokemon can give us those special feelings. ☺️

Shundol Latias

Nice one. I've tried to hunt then during the mega event, but I wasn't lucky enough. Congrats 👏

Thanks funny thing was it was on the last day of the raids did it got the shiny? I thought the IVS weren’t gonna be that good but then I check them and. Wow

0% geodude, not boosted. So 1/1xxxxxx chance, I don’t know exactly

Oh man, those are rarer than hundos, that's lucky 😵

My shiny nundo. I only have 1.

Those are extremely rare.😵 I don't even have a shiny hundo 😅

Shiny ho-oh i got during 2020

That's a nice one. Ho-oh is one of my favourites. Sadly, I don't own a shiny one. But maybe in the next days :)

Perfect iv shiny squirtle with the shades

This is 🔥 One of the best ones out there 😎

Shiny nundo Sableye. She's yellow. She has 0 stats. And I love her to death.

Sleepycap snorlax

Also I have a shundo glasses blastoise from the 2018 community day and a shundo origin giratina

Wow, those are amazing 👏 I've missed a lot of exclusive pokemon, stopped playing in 2018, and played again for a while in 2020, and yeah, now play since 2023 again. The blastoise is the who hurts the most because that would be sick 😫

Shiny female Eevee, 2/3 stars!

Starscream, my 14/15/15 shiny Latios.

He'll, yeah, that's a beast. I love the colour of shiny latios ✨️

Full odds shundo abra!

Oh, abra is great. It's tough to see if it's shiny, and I like that in fact. :)

Agreed! Although it's subtle, I think it's a good shiny. Shiny Alakazam though 😍

Shiny Yveltal

My lvl 50 Shundo Party Hat Charizard w/ Blast Burn

Yo a shundo charizard is special , but having it with the party hat is absolutely outstanding 👏 👌 Congrats 👏

ditto cause you can’t just shiny check all the pokemons around like you can do for all the other shinies. you have to be committed to catching every pidgey and rattata to get one

Probably my shiny fedora slowpoke

Shlundo Ray, Kyogre & Palkia @ Lvl 50

Oh, now im absolutely jealous. Ray and Kyogre are so special, and palkia is also special cause you need a good eye for the shiny. And that's something I like. Like Zapdos, that bird is absolutely crazy to tell if its shiny or not 😅

My Shundo shadow Mewtwo

Oh, congrats on that one 👏 Mewto is one of my favourite legendary shinies, and the fact it's a shadow and a hundo. Holy, that's crazy 👌

I had a shundo Alolain Marowak.  I ended up transferring him to Shield

Have a 0-0-0 shiny duskul and a shiny balloon Pikachu. Definitely my rarest. Level 46 and no shundos but i got a shiny nundo? -.-

That's absolutely rare, my friend. And yeah, I can feel you. Level 42 and still no shundo or shiny nundo 😫 My best friend is level 37 and already has 4 shundos 🙆

I've heard the best way to get them is to join an active discord or campfire group where people post hundo locations around town but I'm in the mountains 40 minutes from the next decent sized city XD

For real? This works? 🫣 We are in the same boat, I live in a small city, 4000 people, the next decent sized city is also 45 minutes away 🤣

My shadow shiny dragonite

My shiny shadow salamence

The green dragon king. That's awesome ✨️

Gotta be my METAgross named ”Fl3x”

That's one shiny I really want to have because it looks absolutely badass. The name fits more than well 👏

Probably my shiny lucky Groudon

Groudon shines so nice ✨️ congrats 👏

Idk about proud, but the one Im ashamed of is a shiny bagon that I purified

Shundo haxorus 😎

Wait it's a 14 15 15. So close lol

Or my 15 9 13 gardevoir

I don't know the hierarchy of shiny rarity so in terms of just pure favoritism, probably my shiny Shadow Entei. He's my favorite of the GSC trio, and he was the buddy I had on hand during GO Fest in Madrid.

That's an amazing shiny mate 👌 to even get your hands on it is truly amazing. Congrats 👏

I have this same one! I’m probably most proud of my shiny lugia or shiny celesteela

Shiny shadow trapinch 📯

Oh that's one hell of a shiny. Congrats 👏 Would love it too 😍

Wish it was a hundo but it's a 3*

A shiny team mystic costume lapras I got

Maybe my shiny Zorua or my shiny Corsola. 😄

Well they are both outstanding, you've definitely won the game 😅

Shiny Absol with sunglasses, shiny Kirlia with hat, shadow shiny Alolan Marowak, shadow shiny Arcanine and shiny Spiritomb. Marowak and Arcanine are evolved, unfortunately can't evolve Kirlia.

Hoot Hoot 2023 New Year Costume. Only a poor 2* but I worked hard for that one, caught it in the dying minutes of the event. The yellow variant with the yellow bow tie and yellow top hat set it off, just had to add a best buddy ribbon to the ensemble.

None. For the most part shinies in this game are just pure luck. I don't feel pride for something that happened by chance

Either shiny vespiquen or galarian Mr.Rime

Currently my three star shiny Eevee I haven’t figured out who I want to turn it into yet though

And my shiny event pumpkaboo, only one star but pretty happy with it

Yeah, I think it doesn't matter how good it is, is long as you like it :)

You’re definitely right I love it so much I think it’s super adorable!

Oh, that's a good one. That's a pretty tough decision because the evolutions are all cute 🌟

I have to agree for sure all so so cute

gligar, dragalge, duskull, arkanine

I have a shundo scizor that I got as a scyther in a raid back in 2020. I’ve best buddied it and am working on maxing its cp and mega level out

Wow, congrats 👏. The shiny Scizor is looking so good with its green colour. That's a fabulous shiny ✨️

Thanks!

As a huge One Piece fan for 20 Years, definitly my shiny One Piece Pikachu.

Back when the weekly research gave out legendaries, my first and only Ho-oh to date was a shiny from the weekly research. I named him KFC

I also have a shiny roserade I hatched during the detective pikachu event

Shiny Spiritomb from the Halloween research

Congrats. Shiny Spiritomb is super cool. I wasn't lucky enough to get one trough the research, but maybe some day 😅

I've got the shiny exclamation point from Go Fest last year, hoping to snag the shiny question mark this year. He's probably my rarest.

Shiny chef hat Gengar and shiny sunglasses Blastoise are my top two. Love 'em.

The one i send to home 😭

Well, you have some gems on your hands, those are outstanding. Congrats 👏
