Okay, after this update I'm done with the Shiny themed updates...

Instead of shitting on shinies, today I'm gonna go over the top 10 shinies introduced in Scarlet & Violet.

1. Floragato & Meowscarada

Now you guys know I'm not a fan of shiny Sprigatito as the color combo of mint green and purple just doesn't work. Shiny Floragato & Meowscarada, while their shinies don't differ much from their originals, I genuinely love them. Their shinies are nicer shades of green that further complement the purple coloration of their eyes and flowers. Shiny Sprigatito was the first shiny I actively Hunted in Violet due to how much I love it!

2. Koraidon

Shiny Koraidon, although shiny locked, can be hacked in and it looks phenomenal!!! It replaces its orange body for black and it's a simple change but you have to admit, most if not all all black shinies look awesome!

3. Espathra

Just like Koraidon, the orange on Espathra is replaced with black and it looks great. The black and purple coloration looks especially nice giving this Pokemon a great shiny.

4. Klawf

Ever since Scarlet & Violet released, shiny Klawf has been one of the most desired shinies by the fanbase and I have to agree, this crab has a nice shiny. Klawf goes from orange to blue and it's a nice shade of blue at that. No wonder why the fanbase had been nuts over this shiny.

5. Tarountula

Another black shiny for the win. Shiny Tarountula goes from yellow to black and White to red. Not only does Black & red always work as a color combo, but it reminds me of a black widow spider, something I can definitely get behind. It's evolution, Spidops, sports the same shiny coloration, but it's pastel/washed out so it doesn't work as well as Tarountula does.

6. Palafin

The black shinies really hit home this generation huh😅. Shiny Palafin goes from blue to black and it works especially well since Palafin's entire gimmick is that it looks like a superhero. Shiny Palafin makes it look like a super villain instead to foil with its usual super hero persona which was a great design choice for the Pokemon team.

7. Kingambit

Another shiny the fanbase went crazy for when Scarlet & Violet released belongs to Kingambit. Following the same blue shiny coloration as it's pre-evoltutions: Pawniard & Bisbarp, Kingambit's shiny also replaces its red for blue and it looks especially nice on it but also proves that Pokemon is consistent by giving Kingambit the same shiny as it's pre-vos.

8. Chi-Yu

Chi-Yu is one of the four secret legendaries introduced in Scarlet & Violet as it takes the form of a fiery fish with beads for eyes. Now, some of the best shinies AND fire Pokemon in the series consist of blue flames and that's exactly what happened with Chi-Yu. Chi-Yu swaps out its orange-red body for blue & black giving us once again, another phenomenal shiny.

9. Lechonk

The final shiny that took the fanbase by storm, shiny Lechonk swaps out its grey coloration for pink. Yes, he now looks like a stereotypical pink pink and EVERYONE is here for it. In all honesty, I WISH this is what Pokemon would've given us as Lechonk's standard coloration instead.

10. Veluza

Veluza, one of the most disliked Pokemon of the new generation, actually has a pretty nice shiny. Veluza's pink is instead replaced by a nice neon green and it works especially well.

Which Shiny was your favorite of the new generation?
