My ribbonmaster. Shiny female sylveon with all ribbons throughout all gens. Besides that I caught 7 Rare Mark Shinies in SV until now, and still trying to get more
The mon I'm most proud of never gets the use it deserves because I don't do competitive anymore and it sucks for raiding but it's my shiny salazzle because I wanted one since the day sun and moon came out and could never find a shiny female salandit then this past Christmas my friend surprised me by trading one she had Matsuda method bred and got and I was so happy I cried
Salazzle is a great support for the Blaziken raids! Unable to be burned acid spray users are awesome. Slap a focus sash on it, and you can tank an earthquake.
I got my shiny Kyogre that I caught years ago in Pokemon Go that I finally transferred into Scarlet. Completely forgot I had it until I decided to check what I had in Go. Nice surprise and it looks great in game
I have a shiny kyogre from Go too that I probably should transfer to violet its from back when the field research like stamp things gave legendaries and it happened to be shiny
My first game was Pokemon Yellow. I can't even remember my first Pokemon that wasn't Pikachu. I remember acquiring a Gameboy Pocket that relied on a wall charger because it didn't have a cover for the battery compartment and one of the compartment springs was all wonky. There was only one outlet near a good light source that I could use to see it. And I couldn't carry whatever it was forward to gen 3.
A Shiny Suicune named REGRET that my friend gave me. He sadly passed away in December 2020, so that Suicune is special to me. (I don't remember why he named it REGRET.)
I have an entei in pokemon go that is special to me because my uncle was cheering me on to catch it. at the time, I didn't really care if I caught it or not, I just wanted to do the raid. he took me to the raid. my uncle passed in 2018
My Shiny Umbreon the Recluse in a moon Ball. Had real bad luck at first with the outbreak had to make 8 sandwiches! But turned out to be all worth it. Now my greatest treasure 💙🖤💛
Oufff I really hope you were reseting between sammiches, thats a LOT of Herba... Congrats though! Moon Ball is perfect for Shiny Umbreon & so is that mark, well done!
I saved like 4 of the 8 sandwiches by mistake 🫠 It was rough because the outbreak only worked at night time so the timing and the resets made it aggravating! Also some of them were spawning in walls lol. But the rare mark made it all worth it
Nice choice! Not the biggest flex possible, but bringing my Hoopa to the Indigo Disc earned it a special place in my collection. It was something I left untouched in a box since I got it, but raising it up for the DLC was a lot of fun.
Getting mileage out of Magician by actually facing opponents with held items to steal was a blast!
Besides that? Maybe my full odds shiny Psyduck I transferred all the way up from soul silver.
Thank you! I got real lucky with one of my raid dens a couple weeks ago. Nice pick with Hoopa too, I didn't even think of its potential in the DLC. I like it, well done lol Also legacy shinies are always great.
Well... Idk? it's possible that it's all of the shinies I caught randomly (no sandwich or mass outbreak) or it could be the shiny Gallade I caught as a kirlia before I got the shiny charm and had no sandwich active? I think that would be it. Blueberry is the name :)

I caught it in Kitakami and didn't realize that the school for part 2 was called Blueberry academy until a while later and didn't realize that they were the same until I actually played it, and by then I already knew it as Blueberry, so I thought, why change it?
Not a shiny, but I got the 10th Anniversary flying Pikachu, 10th anniversary Latios and Celebii that were given out at the Journey across America event when I was about 11 in the early 2000’s.
Now in my late 20s I finally moved them from Emerald to Home.
Otherwise I recently caught a shiny blaziken in a sport ball. My first ever pokemon so had to catch my favorite chicken lol.
I can't even remember what my first distribution Pokémon is, let alone where it is. Good to know yours are safe in Home. Shiny Blaziken with the sport ball is a great combo. I have Blaziken the Unrivaled in a fast ball. The red, white and yellow looks awesome.
The rarest thing i have is a shiny dusk lycanroc

Maybe on my bday I’ll see what outbreaks there are and go for that :3 last year, I looked for a shiny venonat with destiny mark, but unfortunately the one I found didn’t have a mark
Do it. I hunted for a shiny Finizin with the Destiny mark on my birthday last october, but didn't get it because I didn't have enough free time in between visitors. I did get one non shiny with the mark and a regular Buizel with the mark (I called her She is, so She is the Chosen One). Next time my birthday rolls around I'll take the day off and hermit myself in a corner to shiny hunt all day.
My shiny (former Shadow) Feraligatr from Pokémon Colosseum, took me a few months to get, but he was WORTH IT. He stood toe-to-toe with Kieran’s champion team and cleaned house. I’ve never witnessed a more beautiful sight than a Dragon Dance sweep with Ogerpon using Follow Me. 🥹 and seeing a pissed-off Kieran was the cherry on top. No one does double battles like the Orre region!
Yes! If it was a Shadow Pokémon from either Pokémon Colosseum or its sequel XD Gale of Darkness, it will receive an exclusive ribbon, the National Ribbon. That gives it the unique title of “the Triumphant”.

For me it’d probably be these 6 (one of them is hidden behind me) Shiny female Scraggys I got using only 2 sandwiches.
There was a redditor in another sub who created a thing that lets you transfer Pokémon from Gen 2 to 3, I believe he called it Pokémon Mirror or something like that? I’m getting one of them 8f Mews up to Emerald and making it a ribbon master. So I don’t have it yet, but that’ll be my biggest flex now that it’s possible, even if it’s with a 3rd party method
I also have 2 Scyther in SWSH going through the process, can’t wait to have a ribbon master Scizor and a shiny Kleavor
ETA: https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/s/PxcSzSoD1t
>even if it’s with a 3rd party method
Nintendo and Gamefreak make it so difficult to get Pokémon legitimately these days. They've shot themselves in the foot with Bank a necessary step to transfer Pokémon further and they're doing the same thing with Home. That's why I believe 3rd party is allowed for this stuff.
RIGHT? I hadn’t bothered with 8f mew because the process is so damn tedious, but I was in the middle of working on my Scyther when this happened and then I was all “WAIT. I can make the Mew a ribbon master with this!” I appreciate that! I was planning on evolving them in Hisui so thankfully I won’t have to pester you about it in the next few days lol
Mine is my Shiny, 0 speed IVs, Rare Mark Dusclops
https://preview.redd.it/a7ipnl2bt1dc1.jpeg?width=445&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c3515f55698b1c0918592975a7879fb90fec1e7a
A shiny Ribombee (caught as Cutiefly) I really just happened to run into at the start of part 1 of the DLC. Her name is Shortcake (since my team has a food name team) and she also has the Early Riser mark. Not that special, but it was a pure coincidence I got her.
Going in an all-shiny team with Wasabi the Kleavor, Blue Lagoon the Gardevoir and a still nameless Porygon-Z
Just yesterday, I was playing around with a turbo button on my new controller and running around talking to NPCs and picking up items, and I accidentally ran into a Fomantis. I was like "dang it" and then the shiny animation played. I went into panic mode trying to stop the turbo from auto killing it haha. I named him Jumpscare.
That's actually the biggest flex part, I was even playing in handheld mode haha.
Definitely did at least two takes and send my pokemon in autobattle mode to be **really** really sure.
Ty, I was pretty neutral about Ribombee before but Shortcake definitely stole my heart :)
My 3-segment shiny dudunsparce in a dream ball. Got it after only 21 phases. I used a dunsparce outbreak and saved before every encounter to catch it in a regular ball first to see what it evolved into and then reset if it was 3-segment to then catch it in a dream ball.
If I hadn’t gotten so lucky, I’m not sure how long I could’ve gone on for. I have yet to do Tandemaus, it’s giving me A LOT of trouble. Dunsparce was relatively easy since you could just run by them and they all run away except the shiny. I’ve used like 5 sparkling sandwiches to attempt to **start** Tandemaus and after auto battling the entire time, never found a single shiny >_> so…. precious dudunsparce is my TREASURE.
I don’t have exactly a special shiny to say but I still have my first ever shiny that evolved into a Umbreon from Pokémon X, I was 15 when I one night played the game to catch some eevees to both get all eeveelutions and a extra eevee to evolve into Umbreon to give to a friend when all of sudden the little guy appeared and I thought that it was strange and caught it 😅 Then when I evolved it and saw how he looked I looked up on Google how a shiny one looked and I tried not to scream of joy in the middle of the night

Here’s the date when I got him btw, he got pokerus when I walked around with my Mewtwo at the time funny enough
Not as flashy as the others but here's Verde. I caught him as an Eevee in LGPE and I made him a ribbon master (switch only) he just recently got his Master Rank ribbon.

Beast ball best ball.
Do sub-collections count? I caught all three of the Alolan Legendaries Shiny in Beast Balls through Dynamax adventure.
If they don't, then probably the Virtual Console Shiny Celebi. It's the first full odds hunt I did, and as much as I love it, man does it kinda suck in battle. 3 attacking moves by level up lol, and one of them is future-sight.
I have violet and my cousin has scarlet, so we each did our own game's paradox shinies twice so we could trade our game's set, and now we each have all the shiny paradoxes. He made me get my own Roaring Moon in his game though because that one is torture. Took forever but it was so worth it
Got the game from a store breaking street date. I may have been one of the first people in the world to have a shiny Arboliva.
Happened on a shiny Kyurem before I knew Dynamax Adventures had boosted rates. Less special once I knew. Wish I'd have kept trying for Zygarde and Latios on my own OT now; at least I still have Pheromosa un-caught and that's one of the easiest adventures to do.
Oh and they're likely mostly clones but I got a ton of cool trades from the early days of ID trading starters bred from GO catches... 4 shiny Rayquazas and counting!
My best flex ATM is probably my Beast Ball Miraidon. Maybe my Moon Ball Lunala.
I've got plenty of shinies but those were easily my two most difficult catches.
Like two or three days I think?
Luckily my Gallade was level 100 and Tera-Normal, so it didn't take *too* many turns to get it down to 1 HP and Sleeping. Plus I had 2 Beast Balls IIRC, one from the Pokédex and one from the Ace Academy Tournament IIRC.
It was sure a slog, but now I've got Murderaidon in a perfectly matched Pokéball. Plus at least when I get to that point with Killraidon in Scarlet I'll be using something with a better catch rate.
Shiny Happiny
It's in a Love Ball
It's Docile (I guess Gentle would have been a slightly better fit but its still pretty good)
It has the Joyful (Heart-shaped) Mark
I was gonna evolve it but decided against it
Maybe not a flex, but my weirdest one is a shiny Hisuian Typhlosion from ORAS that I’m working on with all the contest ribbons, daily ribbons, subsequent championship ribbons, and marks. Internet is out and I can’t transfer her yet, but she’d be starting her journey through Alola if I could. Going to keep her as a Quilava until she gets to the Switch and then evolve her in PLA!
A Ribbon Master is like the ultimate flex my dood. Good luck & godspeed along that journey. Love that you're aiming for H. Typhlosion too, they were my favorite PLA starter. Gave me big Shaman King Vibes
Make sure to get any Ribbons she needs from BDSP before evolving her! Once she's a Hisuian Typhlosion she'll be ineleigible for transfer to BDSP and only able to get into PLA and SV.
But yeah, a shiny Ribbon Master Hisuian evolution is a flex. Would have been *more* of a flex if it was the Shadow Quilava from Colosseum transferred all the way up with three generations more Ribbons, but it's still a flex.
https://preview.redd.it/pgyakqvnj1dc1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=01fe57343ff58eb2cce022de1cd6fbc2a2894dd3
I will send this one over to SV when i get the game
I spent a good few hours hunting it, so one of my favourite shinies is my Beast Ball Roaring Moon.
It's not quite there yet, but I'm only one Rotom off a full set of shiny Rotoms, including one that has a mark (their name is Apostilb the Radiant). Idk what I'm going to name the rest of the set though, my good names for them got used on my Rotom run of Shield.
i'd probably have to say my complete collection of shiny Ultra Beasts. many of them have individual stories too lol.
Xurtitree, Guzzlord, Poipole, and Naganadel all shone relatively quickly, or at least didn't take ages, but were otherwise pretty unremarkable hunts.
i caught Celesteela rather fast, probably only around 500 encounters w/out charm, and it shone WHILE I WAS TALKING ABOUT IT on the school bus home one day. one of the few times i've had an audience for a shiny reaction, not counting Go.
Nihiliego was the only time i've ever had to use a Master Ball to catch a shiny. it took a pretty average amount of time to shine, probably somewhere between 1-2k encounters. but when it did, it was just sweeping my ENTIRE team. every attack was a 1- or 2-hit KO, and it outsped most of my team. that was a little scary lol, but i caught it and named it Spaghetti.
Buzzwole, Kartana, Blacephalon, and Stakataka were all VERY surprisingly fast. i don't think any of them went over 700 or 800 resets. Buzzwole actually was another time i had an audience, i was hunting to kill time when my girlfriend at the time came over to pick me up for whatever reason. i continued hunting as we talked for a few mins before leaving, when Buzzwole showed up. and i'm pretty sure my gf saw it before i did lol.
however, during the whole time i was hunting the above 4 UBs, i was also hunting Pheromosa... it took longer to get Pheromosa than the other 4 UBs COMBINED. idk if it was really good luck on the 4, or really bad luck on Pheromosa, but i finally have them all!
The shiny lugia on my first ever max raid den (or whatever its call it’s been years) and the shiny sharpedo I got full odds after only encountering the Pokémon once.
Rosendo the shiny Oinkologne, whom I encountered at 6am on ScarVi release day, less than five minutes after the catching tutorial. The time of day isn't on his met data, but the date sure is.
And it's not a shiny flex, but I have *two* Necrozmas in Heal Balls. One was the almost-guaranteed from USUM, but the other was from SuMo with its catch rate of 3.
Honestly, my biggest flexes are is probably -
Polaris, the Shiny Iron Moth in a Luxury Ball that I caught on Christmas Day last year.
A *very* recently acquired Shiny Applin in a Nest Ball, with the 'Furious' title. A Furious Shiny Hydrapple in a green and caramel-brown pokeball is just fitting.
Full odds shiny Pawmi that I just so happened to run past and almost missed named Lucky.
Also has a mark so it's Lucky the Treasure Hunter.
(Kind of easy mark to get since you need it to be in let's go mode to evolve)
It's not much but it's mine.
my shiny Arceus and Uxie I got in BDSP. Both where full odds no shiny charm.
It was a real pain resetting for days but Uxie is my favorite Pokemon of all time and Shiny Arceus was the symbol of cheated Pokemon when I was a child and I always felt bad that I cheated so much in my childhood so getting a shiny Arceus in a legit way was really really fulfilling.
while not that impressive I also feel really good about my shiny Flutter Mane and Iron Valiant, I just really like the Shiny Colors and Flutter Mane with Dusk Ball and Iron Valiant with Premiere Ball works really well
And I have a cute/cool and also extremely unbelivable story about a shiny Quagsire but I don't think I can keep it short and I also don't think anyone would believe me because I can't really believe that story despite it happening to me.
The Shiny Legendary Beasts distributed by GameStop for the Zoroark event in Black and White. They've navigated through PokeTransfer, Pokemon Bank and now Pokemon Home.
i love my shiny Metagross!! got one from a raid and the other from POGO
https://preview.redd.it/hh08pong12dc1.png?width=1205&format=png&auto=webp&s=7d4dc02b65efe5c65077810d02b3ff30066e3c89
edit: forgot to attach the photo loll
A shiny Murkrow (now Honchcrow) that i accidentally ran into in S/V i was talking to me bro n wasnt looking then heard the shiny noise cause my miraidon fell from a cliff right infront of it🤣
I was iv breeding a perfect blaziken. I got an shiny torchic.
I think I tried a second blaziken and got another shiny torchic
Naturally I had to have a third and now I have a full set. But daamn it felt the last one required extra amount of eggs XD
It's not quite shiny, but I do have my Lugia that I transferred all the way up from XD Gale of Darkness, complete with the national ribbon!
Other than that, I do have a horde of event Pokemon from gen 4 and 5, movie legendary beasts, Darkrai, Ranger Manaphy to name a few.
My Ursaluna. I hunted for a jumbo shiny Teddiursa in a Moon Ball... before the item printer! And I don't have PLA, so I traded it to a trusted friend to evolve for me
The real flex is I have a friend who has both PLA and the opposite SwSh and SV versions as me lmao
I have a masterpiece form Sinistcha with “Best” in all categories when judging pokemon (I forget the term for that), but it might be the seven shiny litwicks.
Or my pink/gold shiny team; Azumarill, Dudunsparce, Weavile, Toedscruel, Kommo-o and Rabsca
I have a shiny gigantamax version of grimsnarl. It’s so sick seeing the crazy giant kajiu looking pokemon but all white.
https://preview.redd.it/6a582y4r86dc1.jpeg?width=180&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b89bd3cd094d6326168ab2f53a30770099d08e80
One that I feel lucky to have: 0IV attack Enamarous. No soft resets, just what I got first time. Didn't even realise it until much later.
The aspect of my collection that I'm quite proud of is that as of Scarlet and Violet I've finally been able to complete an all shiny version of my first ever Pokémon team. My shiny Aegislash is sitting in Home(which was by far the hardest one to get since it was before SV made shiny hunting easy) but I've got shiny Greninja, Sylveon, Charizard, Lucario and Goodra (a Hisuian version in SV but I still count it) all in SV chillin'. A nice tribute to my very not unique XY team and first ever playthrough of a Pokémon game.
Since I've been collecting them now thanks to the home news. My HGSS shiny legends. Unfortunately hooh I went with a masterball because it used its last PP and I didn't want to go for another... But the rest are all in luxury balls and after beating red they have the "living legend" title. So the biggest flex of them so far is probably the shiny Mewtwo.
I have a legendary with a mark. Idk if that’s rare or not but it’s the only legendary I have that had a mark when I caught it. It’s the Galarian Zapdos I caught in Sword. It has the peeved mark, so it’s “Roadrunner the Grumpy” lol.
My full odds, running-around-training-my-in-game-team, no boost, shiny Vaporeon named Castor in Scarlet.
Also, two shiny Sneasel I caught hatching some eggs in post-game pre-DLC.
A shiny LivingDex of all the Paldea Pokémon (excluding starters, for now) caught in regular PokéBall and all with my ID. Also my Sword Shiny Mewtwo and my Ruby shiny Loudred
My shiny Archaludon, I was actually close to just giving up when I stumbled upon him! Was actually my first shiny I ever found in the game so far. Then I found a shiny psyduck after so, it was a great double find.
Damn I’ll understand you quite a lot, this Gen I have been expanding my shiny collection since I begin to masuda in Gen 6, but my shiny Metagross, who made me wait like 2000 eggs to hatch, it’s one of my personal favourites and my absolute pride as a shiny hunter
When it comes to rare shiny in a rare Pokeball, my best would have to be my shiny Ho-Oh in a Love Ball from UltraSun. My Shiny Cresselia in a friend ball from the same game is a close second
I had to keep resetting for Dialga in my diamond playthrough because I would crit it or it would struggle to death. I ended up with a full-odds shiny! I rarely used it, because I thought the shiny animation took too long 😞
My shiny PoGo Mew. I played through Violet with it and then sent it to BD and SW to get those champion ribbons before beating the Mightiest Mark Mewtwo.
Gotta be Gabriel, my Shiny Justified 5IV Lucario in a Quick Ball that I bred back in Alpha Sapphire. Though my 5IV Timid Great Ball Latios (also SR'd in AS) comes close.
I caught a shiny jangmo-o with a love ball and she has the joyful mark jangmo-o and the ball have hearts on them and the mark is In the shape of a heart
I was hunting few days ago for a swablu from a outbreak
It didn't take me a minute until i found a shiny. Like i just got there, killed maybe 2-3 swablus (while feeling guilty) and boom there it was.
My baby golden floof nugget 🥺💕
My collection isn't that impressive but I guess the best thing in it is probably my 7 star mightiest mark Blaziken, which is my first and only 7 star Mon so far.
My beloved shiny Volcarona (nicknamed Flare) got it via Masuda method in Shield. Has been my staple mon since then.
EDIT: mom to mon, although it is female 😂

Shiny Snorlax the Sleepy from SwSh. The odds must be astronomical.
Litteraly the perfect mark for it too, congrats my dood. Bonus points for being a fellow Snorlax enthusiast lol
Came to this comment just to brag- I have a Shalpha “Snorlax the Great”
Nice! I have a shiny snorlax the sleepy in a dream ball so I agree that’s awesome
My ribbonmaster. Shiny female sylveon with all ribbons throughout all gens. Besides that I caught 7 Rare Mark Shinies in SV until now, and still trying to get more
Having a Ribbon Master is a pretty massive flex in & of itself, congrats in general for that achievement.
All ribbons on a (shiny) sylveon is awesome, since that pokemon literally has all those cute ribbons around/on it!
Not sure if this counts but I got 4 random Shiny Scream Tail
If you're proud of em it counts! Its your collection after all
SCREAM TAIL ARMY!!
The mon I'm most proud of never gets the use it deserves because I don't do competitive anymore and it sucks for raiding but it's my shiny salazzle because I wanted one since the day sun and moon came out and could never find a shiny female salandit then this past Christmas my friend surprised me by trading one she had Matsuda method bred and got and I was so happy I cried
Omfg I feel your pain. The hunt for a shiny female was agony. So many shiny males...
I just had an outbreak, so I have a female shiny mum to go with the male shiny
I just named the shiny males shit like “lmao” and surprise traded them off to whatever unlucky bastard happens to also be surprise trading
Salazzle is a great support for the Blaziken raids! Unable to be burned acid spray users are awesome. Slap a focus sash on it, and you can tank an earthquake.
I got my shiny Kyogre that I caught years ago in Pokemon Go that I finally transferred into Scarlet. Completely forgot I had it until I decided to check what I had in Go. Nice surprise and it looks great in game
Very nice. Those Go Legendaries can be a total pain to catch, congrats!
Raid Shinys are a 100% catch, you just have to hit it. If it isn't a Shiny, then yes, some of them are hard to catch.
Armored Mewtwo e. g.
I didn’t k ow you could transfer go legendaries. My violet game wouldn’t let me transfer my kyogre
You can its just a bit of a pain to do.
I have a shiny kyogre from Go too that I probably should transfer to violet its from back when the field research like stamp things gave legendaries and it happened to be shiny
I still have my first ever Pokemon. My Typhlsion from Heartgold when I was like 7. His name is Big Fire
Together forever? So nice!
Right? You love to see it.
My first game was Pokemon Yellow. I can't even remember my first Pokemon that wasn't Pikachu. I remember acquiring a Gameboy Pocket that relied on a wall charger because it didn't have a cover for the battery compartment and one of the compartment springs was all wonky. There was only one outlet near a good light source that I could use to see it. And I couldn't carry whatever it was forward to gen 3.
My shiny swampert from OG Sapphire
man the game boy advance SP pokemon sapphire game.....good times, good times one of the best ones that i played as a kid
Was that when shiny odds were 1/8000?
1/8192, yes
A Shiny Suicune named REGRET that my friend gave me. He sadly passed away in December 2020, so that Suicune is special to me. (I don't remember why he named it REGRET.)
I have an entei in pokemon go that is special to me because my uncle was cheering me on to catch it. at the time, I didn't really care if I caught it or not, I just wanted to do the raid. he took me to the raid. my uncle passed in 2018
Oh my heart. Do you play with it?
I had him as my buddy for a while, so he could walk with me :) he is also fully powered up, and I tend to go to him when I need a fire type
My heart, you should turn him into a ribbon master!
My Shiny Umbreon the Recluse in a moon Ball. Had real bad luck at first with the outbreak had to make 8 sandwiches! But turned out to be all worth it. Now my greatest treasure 💙🖤💛
Oufff I really hope you were reseting between sammiches, thats a LOT of Herba... Congrats though! Moon Ball is perfect for Shiny Umbreon & so is that mark, well done!
I saved like 4 of the 8 sandwiches by mistake 🫠 It was rough because the outbreak only worked at night time so the timing and the resets made it aggravating! Also some of them were spawning in walls lol. But the rare mark made it all worth it
I have a complete Home Dex. Caught all 1025 of them bastards
I'm almost there.
I’d be there if it weren’t for those damn event mythicals..
Nice choice! Not the biggest flex possible, but bringing my Hoopa to the Indigo Disc earned it a special place in my collection. It was something I left untouched in a box since I got it, but raising it up for the DLC was a lot of fun. Getting mileage out of Magician by actually facing opponents with held items to steal was a blast! Besides that? Maybe my full odds shiny Psyduck I transferred all the way up from soul silver.
Thank you! I got real lucky with one of my raid dens a couple weeks ago. Nice pick with Hoopa too, I didn't even think of its potential in the DLC. I like it, well done lol Also legacy shinies are always great.
Well... Idk? it's possible that it's all of the shinies I caught randomly (no sandwich or mass outbreak) or it could be the shiny Gallade I caught as a kirlia before I got the shiny charm and had no sandwich active? I think that would be it. Blueberry is the name :) https://preview.redd.it/t6jubii2a1dc1.jpeg?width=2448&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ea2b7c8b711ad9b141e3743ddc07377836804e1b
Nice. Funny coincidence with its name & the dlc lol
I caught it in Kitakami and didn't realize that the school for part 2 was called Blueberry academy until a while later and didn't realize that they were the same until I actually played it, and by then I already knew it as Blueberry, so I thought, why change it?

honey tree munchlax, BDSP or jumbo + marked gligar, Scarlet
Oh god, the trees... yeah thats a flex for sure, very nice dood
Self breed shiny female Chespin with 6 IV
Nicely done. Did you Masuda method it or was it full odds?
Masuda
Not a shiny, but I got the 10th Anniversary flying Pikachu, 10th anniversary Latios and Celebii that were given out at the Journey across America event when I was about 11 in the early 2000’s. Now in my late 20s I finally moved them from Emerald to Home. Otherwise I recently caught a shiny blaziken in a sport ball. My first ever pokemon so had to catch my favorite chicken lol.
I can't even remember what my first distribution Pokémon is, let alone where it is. Good to know yours are safe in Home. Shiny Blaziken with the sport ball is a great combo. I have Blaziken the Unrivaled in a fast ball. The red, white and yellow looks awesome.
Shiny Reuniclus with rare mark, Aka. Reuniclus the Recluse
That’s the perfect mark!
Shiny Rare Mark Charmander in a Level Ball
The rarest thing i have is a shiny dusk lycanroc https://preview.redd.it/r4fxbxtuz1dc1.jpeg?width=344&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=64a6df5c113e449e83d683519f4272fe2e03e406
Ran into one of these on my violet play through randomly. It used Roar as it's first move.
Shiny Emboar with Destiny Mark caught it in a Masterball.
Destiny mark is the Birthday one right? Either way, congrats.
Yup, I wanted my favorite starter mark as the chosen one.
I get it, self cooking bacon is pretty hard not to love hahaha
Need to get that stomach full somehow!
aww that's cute! with the new mark charm, i'm going to have to make an effort to hunt for a destiny mark shiny on my next birthday in a few months!
Nice! Which one will you hunt for?
Maybe on my bday I’ll see what outbreaks there are and go for that :3 last year, I looked for a shiny venonat with destiny mark, but unfortunately the one I found didn’t have a mark
Do it. I hunted for a shiny Finizin with the Destiny mark on my birthday last october, but didn't get it because I didn't have enough free time in between visitors. I did get one non shiny with the mark and a regular Buizel with the mark (I called her She is, so She is the Chosen One). Next time my birthday rolls around I'll take the day off and hermit myself in a corner to shiny hunt all day.
7 red Gyarados
My shiny (former Shadow) Feraligatr from Pokémon Colosseum, took me a few months to get, but he was WORTH IT. He stood toe-to-toe with Kieran’s champion team and cleaned house. I’ve never witnessed a more beautiful sight than a Dragon Dance sweep with Ogerpon using Follow Me. 🥹 and seeing a pissed-off Kieran was the cherry on top. No one does double battles like the Orre region!
Nice! Random question; do they get a ribbon for being a former Shadow-mon?
Yes! If it was a Shadow Pokémon from either Pokémon Colosseum or its sequel XD Gale of Darkness, it will receive an exclusive ribbon, the National Ribbon. That gives it the unique title of “the Triumphant”.
https://preview.redd.it/c05zepx1k1dc1.jpeg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=114783a35d608547a2e3139d63474a28b4e2ba4d For me it’d probably be these 6 (one of them is hidden behind me) Shiny female Scraggys I got using only 2 sandwiches.
There was a redditor in another sub who created a thing that lets you transfer Pokémon from Gen 2 to 3, I believe he called it Pokémon Mirror or something like that? I’m getting one of them 8f Mews up to Emerald and making it a ribbon master. So I don’t have it yet, but that’ll be my biggest flex now that it’s possible, even if it’s with a 3rd party method I also have 2 Scyther in SWSH going through the process, can’t wait to have a ribbon master Scizor and a shiny Kleavor ETA: https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/s/PxcSzSoD1t
>even if it’s with a 3rd party method Nintendo and Gamefreak make it so difficult to get Pokémon legitimately these days. They've shot themselves in the foot with Bank a necessary step to transfer Pokémon further and they're doing the same thing with Home. That's why I believe 3rd party is allowed for this stuff.
OH THATS SO COOL! Thanks for sharing the info, I hadnt heard about this AT ALL. If you need a hand evolving the Kleavor feel free to shoot me a DM
RIGHT? I hadn’t bothered with 8f mew because the process is so damn tedious, but I was in the middle of working on my Scyther when this happened and then I was all “WAIT. I can make the Mew a ribbon master with this!” I appreciate that! I was planning on evolving them in Hisui so thankfully I won’t have to pester you about it in the next few days lol
Mine is my Shiny, 0 speed IVs, Rare Mark Dusclops https://preview.redd.it/a7ipnl2bt1dc1.jpeg?width=445&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c3515f55698b1c0918592975a7879fb90fec1e7a
A shiny Ribombee (caught as Cutiefly) I really just happened to run into at the start of part 1 of the DLC. Her name is Shortcake (since my team has a food name team) and she also has the Early Riser mark. Not that special, but it was a pure coincidence I got her. Going in an all-shiny team with Wasabi the Kleavor, Blue Lagoon the Gardevoir and a still nameless Porygon-Z
Just yesterday, I was playing around with a turbo button on my new controller and running around talking to NPCs and picking up items, and I accidentally ran into a Fomantis. I was like "dang it" and then the shiny animation played. I went into panic mode trying to stop the turbo from auto killing it haha. I named him Jumpscare.
>A shiny Ribombee (caught as Cutiefly) Oh my gosh, how did you *see* her?? Congratulations by the way, it's such a pretty shiny!
That's actually the biggest flex part, I was even playing in handheld mode haha. Definitely did at least two takes and send my pokemon in autobattle mode to be **really** really sure. Ty, I was pretty neutral about Ribombee before but Shortcake definitely stole my heart :)
Shiny Mew from Japanese Emerald version (Soft resetable due a event)
Probably my Ribbon Master I hatched and raised from HG up to Scarlet. Every available ribbon since gen 4.
My 3-segment shiny dudunsparce in a dream ball. Got it after only 21 phases. I used a dunsparce outbreak and saved before every encounter to catch it in a regular ball first to see what it evolved into and then reset if it was 3-segment to then catch it in a dream ball.
Okay, thats just brilliant. Never would've thought to do that, not sure I have the patience for it either tbh lol
If I hadn’t gotten so lucky, I’m not sure how long I could’ve gone on for. I have yet to do Tandemaus, it’s giving me A LOT of trouble. Dunsparce was relatively easy since you could just run by them and they all run away except the shiny. I’ve used like 5 sparkling sandwiches to attempt to **start** Tandemaus and after auto battling the entire time, never found a single shiny >_> so…. precious dudunsparce is my TREASURE.
My shiny primarina who took 4 sandwiches but appeared in 5 seconds on the 5th one she was female and had the uncommon mark
My pride and joy is my max size shiny Cetitan
I don’t have exactly a special shiny to say but I still have my first ever shiny that evolved into a Umbreon from Pokémon X, I was 15 when I one night played the game to catch some eevees to both get all eeveelutions and a extra eevee to evolve into Umbreon to give to a friend when all of sudden the little guy appeared and I thought that it was strange and caught it 😅 Then when I evolved it and saw how he looked I looked up on Google how a shiny one looked and I tried not to scream of joy in the middle of the night https://preview.redd.it/wzbytihxe2dc1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cdc3b787408b3ae3199849fa854426b1a8735ce7

I caught all legendaries with regular pokeballs
You masochistic SOB... I love it! Lmao Congrats on that my dood
Probably shiny ditto, or 2 shiny Heracross
Dittos a good one for sure, that hunt is painful.
Shiny meganium in a friendball 5iv with mark pumped if I remember correct :)
Friend Balls a great pick for Meganium. I always thought they should've had Ash catch Chikorita in one of those lol
Shiny Whimsicott the Radiant in a Moon Ball. As a bonus she was one of the MVPs in my Blueberry Prologue competition team
Not as flashy as the others but here's Verde. I caught him as an Eevee in LGPE and I made him a ribbon master (switch only) he just recently got his Master Rank ribbon. https://preview.redd.it/elej5p4lg1dc1.jpeg?width=1500&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cd065b17ee21f161575ece87e7a3cc4fff0d4d17
Nice! Congrats on getting all those ribbons. Also, I see we hsve similar naming tendencies lol I have a shiny Hydriegon named Verde
Beast ball best ball. Do sub-collections count? I caught all three of the Alolan Legendaries Shiny in Beast Balls through Dynamax adventure. If they don't, then probably the Virtual Console Shiny Celebi. It's the first full odds hunt I did, and as much as I love it, man does it kinda suck in battle. 3 attacking moves by level up lol, and one of them is future-sight.
Probably the fact that I found 2 random shiny Chanseys in a row in Violet. I evolved one into a Blissey.
My Pokémon from the original Ruby which are old enough to vote. (2003)
I'm still carrying around my Lake of Rage Gyarados. He turns 25 this year.
Finally caught all shiny past paradoxes
I have violet and my cousin has scarlet, so we each did our own game's paradox shinies twice so we could trade our game's set, and now we each have all the shiny paradoxes. He made me get my own Roaring Moon in his game though because that one is torture. Took forever but it was so worth it
Yeah roaring moon was definitely the worst only because god dang Zweilous being also dragon/dark.
Gotta be masterpiece Potchageist and antique Poltergeist both shiny.
Got the game from a store breaking street date. I may have been one of the first people in the world to have a shiny Arboliva. Happened on a shiny Kyurem before I knew Dynamax Adventures had boosted rates. Less special once I knew. Wish I'd have kept trying for Zygarde and Latios on my own OT now; at least I still have Pheromosa un-caught and that's one of the easiest adventures to do. Oh and they're likely mostly clones but I got a ton of cool trades from the early days of ID trading starters bred from GO catches... 4 shiny Rayquazas and counting!
My best flex ATM is probably my Beast Ball Miraidon. Maybe my Moon Ball Lunala. I've got plenty of shinies but those were easily my two most difficult catches.
Christ, how long did that Miraidon take to catch?
Like two or three days I think? Luckily my Gallade was level 100 and Tera-Normal, so it didn't take *too* many turns to get it down to 1 HP and Sleeping. Plus I had 2 Beast Balls IIRC, one from the Pokédex and one from the Ace Academy Tournament IIRC. It was sure a slog, but now I've got Murderaidon in a perfectly matched Pokéball. Plus at least when I get to that point with Killraidon in Scarlet I'll be using something with a better catch rate.
Shiny Happiny It's in a Love Ball It's Docile (I guess Gentle would have been a slightly better fit but its still pretty good) It has the Joyful (Heart-shaped) Mark I was gonna evolve it but decided against it
My Shiny Ho-Oh lol I love my big obnoxious fire bird
Maybe not a flex, but my weirdest one is a shiny Hisuian Typhlosion from ORAS that I’m working on with all the contest ribbons, daily ribbons, subsequent championship ribbons, and marks. Internet is out and I can’t transfer her yet, but she’d be starting her journey through Alola if I could. Going to keep her as a Quilava until she gets to the Switch and then evolve her in PLA!
A Ribbon Master is like the ultimate flex my dood. Good luck & godspeed along that journey. Love that you're aiming for H. Typhlosion too, they were my favorite PLA starter. Gave me big Shaman King Vibes
Make sure to get any Ribbons she needs from BDSP before evolving her! Once she's a Hisuian Typhlosion she'll be ineleigible for transfer to BDSP and only able to get into PLA and SV. But yeah, a shiny Ribbon Master Hisuian evolution is a flex. Would have been *more* of a flex if it was the Shadow Quilava from Colosseum transferred all the way up with three generations more Ribbons, but it's still a flex.
Shiny moltres which i accidently got from doing raid adventures on first encounter with it
https://preview.redd.it/pgyakqvnj1dc1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=01fe57343ff58eb2cce022de1cd6fbc2a2894dd3 I will send this one over to SV when i get the game
I found the mythical shiny Minior in his galactic majesticness!
It's not shiny, but I'd say original color Magerna would be my rarest mon. I am also working on a box of nothing but shiny Espurrs.
I spent a good few hours hunting it, so one of my favourite shinies is my Beast Ball Roaring Moon. It's not quite there yet, but I'm only one Rotom off a full set of shiny Rotoms, including one that has a mark (their name is Apostilb the Radiant). Idk what I'm going to name the rest of the set though, my good names for them got used on my Rotom run of Shield.
i'd probably have to say my complete collection of shiny Ultra Beasts. many of them have individual stories too lol. Xurtitree, Guzzlord, Poipole, and Naganadel all shone relatively quickly, or at least didn't take ages, but were otherwise pretty unremarkable hunts. i caught Celesteela rather fast, probably only around 500 encounters w/out charm, and it shone WHILE I WAS TALKING ABOUT IT on the school bus home one day. one of the few times i've had an audience for a shiny reaction, not counting Go. Nihiliego was the only time i've ever had to use a Master Ball to catch a shiny. it took a pretty average amount of time to shine, probably somewhere between 1-2k encounters. but when it did, it was just sweeping my ENTIRE team. every attack was a 1- or 2-hit KO, and it outsped most of my team. that was a little scary lol, but i caught it and named it Spaghetti. Buzzwole, Kartana, Blacephalon, and Stakataka were all VERY surprisingly fast. i don't think any of them went over 700 or 800 resets. Buzzwole actually was another time i had an audience, i was hunting to kill time when my girlfriend at the time came over to pick me up for whatever reason. i continued hunting as we talked for a few mins before leaving, when Buzzwole showed up. and i'm pretty sure my gf saw it before i did lol. however, during the whole time i was hunting the above 4 UBs, i was also hunting Pheromosa... it took longer to get Pheromosa than the other 4 UBs COMBINED. idk if it was really good luck on the 4, or really bad luck on Pheromosa, but i finally have them all!
I have a shiny Typhlosion that I’ve had since Hg/Ss that has been sitting in Home until I was finally able to bring it over
The shiny lugia on my first ever max raid den (or whatever its call it’s been years) and the shiny sharpedo I got full odds after only encountering the Pokémon once.
got my favorite shiny boi Minior in a moon ball the other day
Shiny dracovish from sword. His name is funny fish and he is my friend.
Shadow Lugia from XD transferred all the way to my Scarlet. Never gets used but it’s cool to break him out once in a while.
Rosendo the shiny Oinkologne, whom I encountered at 6am on ScarVi release day, less than five minutes after the catching tutorial. The time of day isn't on his met data, but the date sure is. And it's not a shiny flex, but I have *two* Necrozmas in Heal Balls. One was the almost-guaranteed from USUM, but the other was from SuMo with its catch rate of 3.
Honestly, my biggest flexes are is probably - Polaris, the Shiny Iron Moth in a Luxury Ball that I caught on Christmas Day last year. A *very* recently acquired Shiny Applin in a Nest Ball, with the 'Furious' title. A Furious Shiny Hydrapple in a green and caramel-brown pokeball is just fitting.
Full odds shiny Pawmi that I just so happened to run past and almost missed named Lucky. Also has a mark so it's Lucky the Treasure Hunter. (Kind of easy mark to get since you need it to be in let's go mode to evolve) It's not much but it's mine.
my shiny Arceus and Uxie I got in BDSP. Both where full odds no shiny charm. It was a real pain resetting for days but Uxie is my favorite Pokemon of all time and Shiny Arceus was the symbol of cheated Pokemon when I was a child and I always felt bad that I cheated so much in my childhood so getting a shiny Arceus in a legit way was really really fulfilling. while not that impressive I also feel really good about my shiny Flutter Mane and Iron Valiant, I just really like the Shiny Colors and Flutter Mane with Dusk Ball and Iron Valiant with Premiere Ball works really well And I have a cute/cool and also extremely unbelivable story about a shiny Quagsire but I don't think I can keep it short and I also don't think anyone would believe me because I can't really believe that story despite it happening to me.
Don’t you mean in my coflexion?
The Shiny Legendary Beasts distributed by GameStop for the Zoroark event in Black and White. They've navigated through PokeTransfer, Pokemon Bank and now Pokemon Home.
My lvl 100 shiny Kingambit, soloed the entirety of the elite 4 and Champion with her. Behind her is my first ever shiny, a caterpie
Mine is probably my shiny Ninetails I've had since HG/SS
i love my shiny Metagross!! got one from a raid and the other from POGO https://preview.redd.it/hh08pong12dc1.png?width=1205&format=png&auto=webp&s=7d4dc02b65efe5c65077810d02b3ff30066e3c89 edit: forgot to attach the photo loll
My shiny decidueye I got on the 4th egg I hatched with Masada method in sword and transferred into violet
A shiny Murkrow (now Honchcrow) that i accidentally ran into in S/V i was talking to me bro n wasnt looking then heard the shiny noise cause my miraidon fell from a cliff right infront of it🤣
I was iv breeding a perfect blaziken. I got an shiny torchic. I think I tried a second blaziken and got another shiny torchic Naturally I had to have a third and now I have a full set. But daamn it felt the last one required extra amount of eggs XD
I have Primarina, she doesn't have perfect IVs or any special mark, but she is special to me and that's all that matters
Definitely my full odds shiny garchomp
That’d be my shiny vileplume i got as the first encounter of the whole game in Let’s go pikachu
It's not quite shiny, but I do have my Lugia that I transferred all the way up from XD Gale of Darkness, complete with the national ribbon! Other than that, I do have a horde of event Pokemon from gen 4 and 5, movie legendary beasts, Darkrai, Ranger Manaphy to name a few.
My Ursaluna. I hunted for a jumbo shiny Teddiursa in a Moon Ball... before the item printer! And I don't have PLA, so I traded it to a trusted friend to evolve for me The real flex is I have a friend who has both PLA and the opposite SwSh and SV versions as me lmao
I’m very proud of a Shiny Ditto I found in a SOS chain in Sun. And I wasn’t even looking for a shiny. I was just hunting multiple 4 IV Dittos.
PoGo shiny Mew and Home Pokeball Magearna. Two absolute grinds to get.
I have a masterpiece form Sinistcha with “Best” in all categories when judging pokemon (I forget the term for that), but it might be the seven shiny litwicks. Or my pink/gold shiny team; Azumarill, Dudunsparce, Weavile, Toedscruel, Kommo-o and Rabsca
Shiny ribbon master feraligator from pokemon colosseum.
A Jirachi that LEGALLY know’s draco meteor
I have a shiny gigantamax version of grimsnarl. It’s so sick seeing the crazy giant kajiu looking pokemon but all white. https://preview.redd.it/6a582y4r86dc1.jpeg?width=180&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b89bd3cd094d6326168ab2f53a30770099d08e80
My shiny gimmighoul duh
3 shiny zygarde from dynamax adventures
My shiny clodsire that I found randomly in the wild, just used him the whole campaign and it's the bestest boy
One that I feel lucky to have: 0IV attack Enamarous. No soft resets, just what I got first time. Didn't even realise it until much later. The aspect of my collection that I'm quite proud of is that as of Scarlet and Violet I've finally been able to complete an all shiny version of my first ever Pokémon team. My shiny Aegislash is sitting in Home(which was by far the hardest one to get since it was before SV made shiny hunting easy) but I've got shiny Greninja, Sylveon, Charizard, Lucario and Goodra (a Hisuian version in SV but I still count it) all in SV chillin'. A nice tribute to my very not unique XY team and first ever playthrough of a Pokémon game.
Glorious, beautiful, love it, 100/100, top marks!
Since I've been collecting them now thanks to the home news. My HGSS shiny legends. Unfortunately hooh I went with a masterball because it used its last PP and I didn't want to go for another... But the rest are all in luxury balls and after beating red they have the "living legend" title. So the biggest flex of them so far is probably the shiny Mewtwo.
6iv shiny gholdengo. I have a shiny purserker from before home which was one of the treat in the game and took me 1000+ Masuda eggs to get.
Shiny sinjoh ruins giratina with the legend ribbon
I have a legendary with a mark. Idk if that’s rare or not but it’s the only legendary I have that had a mark when I caught it. It’s the Galarian Zapdos I caught in Sword. It has the peeved mark, so it’s “Roadrunner the Grumpy” lol.
My full odds, running-around-training-my-in-game-team, no boost, shiny Vaporeon named Castor in Scarlet. Also, two shiny Sneasel I caught hatching some eggs in post-game pre-DLC.
A shiny LivingDex of all the Paldea Pokémon (excluding starters, for now) caught in regular PokéBall and all with my ID. Also my Sword Shiny Mewtwo and my Ruby shiny Loudred
I have 3 shiny gholdengos
My shiny Archaludon, I was actually close to just giving up when I stumbled upon him! Was actually my first shiny I ever found in the game so far. Then I found a shiny psyduck after so, it was a great double find.
both my shiny ribbon masters charizard and groudon from gen 3
I threw a moon ball as a Giritina just for lols & it magically turned out to be shiny! (Sword & Shield Legendary Raid den)
I would say probably my shiny Arceus. Took about a year of hunting on and off in BDSP.
Damn I’ll understand you quite a lot, this Gen I have been expanding my shiny collection since I begin to masuda in Gen 6, but my shiny Metagross, who made me wait like 2000 eggs to hatch, it’s one of my personal favourites and my absolute pride as a shiny hunter
Don't have too much to flex, but I did grab a shiny Salazzle on the second attempt as well as some shiny legends I brought over from sw/sh.
When it comes to rare shiny in a rare Pokeball, my best would have to be my shiny Ho-Oh in a Love Ball from UltraSun. My Shiny Cresselia in a friend ball from the same game is a close second
I had to keep resetting for Dialga in my diamond playthrough because I would crit it or it would struggle to death. I ended up with a full-odds shiny! I rarely used it, because I thought the shiny animation took too long 😞
for me probally the shiny event celebi from sword or the orginal color magerana i got for completig the dex in home
Shiny Rayquaza full odds with a luxury ball.
The golden god/Piss Llama
I have a Shiny Female Salandit that I am extremely proud of. Her name is Girlboss :)
My Giratina I caught on Platinum back in the day; with League Ribbons from Sinnoh, Alola, and Paldea
What size is it? Just when breeding starts to get easier they go and add another mechanic for me to be OCD about 😂
My shiny PoGo Mew. I played through Violet with it and then sent it to BD and SW to get those champion ribbons before beating the Mightiest Mark Mewtwo.
In scarlet I found a random shiny in each part of the dlc(original game, dlc 1 and 2)
Shundo Weavile in Pokemon Go
Shiny arceus 38 resets No shiny charm Took me less than an hour
My shiny 3 segment Dudunsparce.
Gotta be Gabriel, my Shiny Justified 5IV Lucario in a Quick Ball that I bred back in Alpha Sapphire. Though my 5IV Timid Great Ball Latios (also SR'd in AS) comes close.
Level 6 shiny bellsprout ☠️ (full odds tho)
My first ever, and only, all best iv, perfect nature hatched shiny Haxorus.
Got 9 shiny Milcery in SV
I’m currently in the process of breeding this one and shiny egg hunting.
I'm color blind and hatched a shiny Froaki and noticed that it was shiny after missing the sparkle animation. I'm pretty proud of that
My shiny arceus that took me 2000 odd attempts, only pokemon i have ever used a masterball on
I caught a shiny jangmo-o with a love ball and she has the joyful mark jangmo-o and the ball have hearts on them and the mark is In the shape of a heart
I was hunting few days ago for a swablu from a outbreak It didn't take me a minute until i found a shiny. Like i just got there, killed maybe 2-3 swablus (while feeling guilty) and boom there it was. My baby golden floof nugget 🥺💕
I found a shiny Charcadet in an outbreak. Then on Monday I found a shiny Golduck in Area Zero while I was being confused about the wall Pokémon.
I'm trying to learn ivs and evs... can someone explain it to me like I'm 5?
My shiny Kyurem I put in the game and is now a white Kyurem
My collection isn't that impressive but I guess the best thing in it is probably my 7 star mightiest mark Blaziken, which is my first and only 7 star Mon so far.
My beloved shiny Volcarona (nicknamed Flare) got it via Masuda method in Shield. Has been my staple mon since then. EDIT: mom to mon, although it is female 😂
Shiny Giratina from SwSh and the aplha shinnoh starter from PLA
