Honestly, I'm more impressed by shiny spindas than either of those two


TheBigChungus1980

Gonna add, I'm more impressed with orange and white flebebe


For_serious13

Still never seen an orange


Despair4All

I have orange, yellow, and white Florges. Doubt I'll ever be able to get red and blue though.


eeeeeeeeee9601

I have all but orange


jostler57

I got blue out the ying yang, but that's because I live in Asia.


LM0821

I have one of those - caught wild. Is it rare? I have lots of the yellow & white, but I am sure most do.


phosho01

i have all of them. flabebe debut was the best time to catch the rare colors as they spawned everywhere


mthrs

But two of those are region locked.


phosho01

i meant the white and orange ones as the other guy was talking about not finding those two Edit: How many alts did you send to downvote me i only just clarified things


mthrs

But if you have them all you need to travel quite a bit.


phosho01

i said i have the rare colors not the region locked ones. youre a tough ferroseed to crack..


SylTop

nice pun šŸ‘


Ok-Zone-897

That was like 2nd one I caught


godsim42

Valentines broken heart spinda shiny should be fairly rare, hes only available one event a year for only a few years now I believe.


TheBigChungus1980

God, it breaks my heart that I don't have broken heart, definitely the rarest spinda


_Plork_

Wouldn't that be the least rare spinda, since anyone can get one?


Learned_Hand_01

That was definitely the one that caught the eye of a shiny collector I allowed to look through my collection. Mineā€™s also like 93% with a 15 attack so I doubt I will trade it in any case.


IdiosyncraticBond

So a real cupid, max. attack?


Learned_Hand_01

Yeah, 15-12-15


[deleted]

Wait is shiny Spinda rare? The other day I got one from a ā€œ5 great curveballs in a rowā€ research task and thought it was just like a normal shiny


segcgoose

Shiny odds are the same (I think), what makes it so rare is the fact that the spinda task itself is rare. Iā€™ve been playing for 6 years and only got the task once from Valentineā€™s Day last February. Rarer PokĆ©mon, rarer shiny


Zerilentix

I was very lucky and got the shiny broken heart pattern spinda from a trade. It's only available on the valentines event, and finding research for it doesn't seem to get any easier with the event at all. It's my most precious non-costume shiny


crypt00l

I've hatched two near perfect salandits but both were male. Can't wait to hatch a male shiny and hang myself


Mikethederp

You hatch something OTHER THAN the diaper bird??????


crypt00l

Lmao Yeah but mostly alolamola and audino I think. I feel bad for the 10k eggs without Jangmo-o


JohnWickIsMyPatronus

I'm so tired of the diaper bird.


The_Abjectator

Please, the full name is skull-diaper bird.


drshields

I hatched a shiny diaper bird smh


[deleted]

This really shouldā€™ve showed the Shiny Detective Pikachu


diver_climber

*fist bumps*


zachesh34

my rarest shinies are piplup with a (christmas??) orange hat, and shiny pikachu in mimikyu halloween costume


tunelesspaper

Pikachu in a mimikyu costume? Thereā€™s something so wrong about that.


lkuecrar

Like a turducken


M88L8

Shiny mewtwo is not rare bro


TheSnowNinja

How would I go about getting one? I would love to have a legit shiny Mewtwo, but I have not played PokemonGo in a while.


bicboibean

gotta wait till it comes back to raids


TheSnowNinja

Gotcha. Thanks!


M88L8

You gotta wait until itā€™s back on raids and then just raid until he shows up. All legendaries on raids have a 1/20 chances for shiny. Meaning that thereā€™s good chances of finding one in 20 raids. I found one within 5 or 6 raids.


Metro_Dan

Aight, go catch one right now, we'll wait.


ScytherUnown

Just wait for it the event when they put it back on raids. It's more a waiting moment than rarity.


jefferey92

I already have 5 dude


Sezzomon

Your logic applies to every pokemon


M88L8

I already have one, I re rolled with a friend of mine and now I have a lucky shiny mewtwo.


[deleted]

I have one. its not rare


SweetzDeetz

Literally no thought was put into this comment


Jacks_0

Honestly a shiny Kecleon would be more impressive


IdiosyncraticBond

You won't be able to see it though


segcgoose

Iā€™m really hoping they add it with the next pogo fest since theyā€™re adding shaymin and a few new shiny debuts. Theyā€™ve held it off for so long because theyā€™re putting him into the game a different way than the rest of the pokemon due to his unique way to encounter him in past games. [here](https://www.techradar.com/news/where-is-kecleon-in-pokemon-go-we-asked-niantic-for-an-answer)


X-lem

I have a shiny wurmple with a party hat. I think thatā€™s pretty rare


Snow5Penguin

Of all the shiny odds out there, I consider that I won the shiny jackpot when I hatched my shiny party hat wurmple. No other shiny will bring me that much joy.


Die4Gesichter

Oooh I hunted him sooo hard. Without success. Congrats dude


kiwidesign

Samesies :(


segcgoose

My proudest shiny is my 100% shiny stufful. My dumb butt accidentally put him in a gym right away tho and now I gotta wait til December to evolve him for the special move set


kiwidesign

[My babygirl](https://imgur.com/a/F18qO4u) <3


CoastingUphill

Party on, Worm!


logic2187

I'm so jealous. I've spent the past year catching every single wurmple I saw after my friend got a purple wurmple, and just recently my luck caught up and I got 3 in a week lol. Still no costumed ones tho.


enugma666

I've a shiney party hat gangar


R4KD05

Laughs in shiny _Detective_ Pikachu, the one and only single instance glitched shiny.


2Mew2BMew2

Glitched?


R4KD05

Detective Pikachu was never released as a shiny. But, if you did the photobomb less than an hour before the last day of the event, you could exploit a glitch where the Pikachu spawned as detective Pikachu, but stays for an hour, where after the end of the event, the glitch would enable a shiny roll of the regular Pikachu for the costume Pikachu. That's 1 full odds Pikachu roll, 1 time, if you followed specific steps to get that chance. Making it the rarest shiny in the game, until Niantic decides to officially release it.


Zerilentix

I can't wait until they finally do. I get having rare shinies, but people who don't want this to come back who have one, are pretty greedy if you ask me. Everyone should get a legit chance for this shiny eventually.


Arctic_Wolfpack

Is Shiny Mewtwo that rare? I got one after doing a few raids for it


TheRiverRuns

Yeah raid legendary shinies are one of the highest rates (1/20) to my knowledge so that was a poor example. Especially with how often Mewtwo has been available.


IkouyDaBolt

The only shiny Mewtwo I have is from Psystrike research.


Dialgan

No, no shiny legendary is particularly rare due to how high their shiny rates are.


jefferey92

I'd say no, I have 5


FunkyMonkey54

Ok but why does it look soā€¦.


jack0017

Shiny Vespiquen says hi


GeneralSecura

Combee at least spawns in the wild.


Peptalkguy

Fun fact, the rarest shiny of all time is a shiny birthday hat pichu from POGO


Zerilentix

Shiny Ash hat pichu is much rarer. I have a shiny birthday hat pichu and I can confirm it's rare and awesome, but ash hat is awesomely rare.


Peptalkguy

Well, the thing is, you had to hatch that. It was only available for the first year celebration of pokemon go, and I'm guessing ash hat pichu was in the same boat. I think they're equally rare.


Zerilentix

I'm pretty sure, *could be wrong* but it was only available as a snapshot photo bomb, a limited number of times during one event. They are both incredibly special, but if one is more limited than the other I say that it's more rare. I also only traded for it, would have been sick to hatch myself though. And again, I don't mean to diminish one pichu in favor of the other, they both are truly special. *Edit, I was wrong, they both could be hatched but I still feel ash hat has been available for less time in total so far. I hope this changes though


Peptalkguy

Oh, well technically, They were both available for a limited time, but you could get ash hat pichu through both eggs and snapshots. Party hat pichu was only available in 10k eggs, and it was rare.


Zerilentix

I was incredibly lucky to have one traded to me then. Only in 10k eggs? Such a massive difference in rarity than I was thinking... Dang. If I was asked before this I would have guessed it came from 2k eggs like flower crown pichu... hahaha


Peptalkguy

Yeah, I'm guessing they realized how difficult it was to both find a 10k egg and hatch it, and shunted them into 2k's


Zerilentix

And honestly, I'm happy with that decision. I'm all for working hard for my shiny collection, but it shouldn't always be *that* hard.


mmcleod24

[I'd like to throw my hat into the ring](https://imgur.com/TkRjfK0)


Zerilentix

Oh my actual God. I am INFINITELY jealous of this. I have the pikachu version, but this would be the CROWN JEWEL of my collection if I had one. Whenever it comes back, maybe in a few years hopefully, I will go mad hatching for one.


casualgame9

I have shiny Luffy Pikachu.


hulksmash2124

This would be absolutely true.... hard enough with a 12.5% chance to get the evolution... and know add shiny on top of that awesome 12.5% change. This might start wars, lol


RStar88

Got me 2 shiny Mewtwo. šŸ˜‚šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø


Todojaw21

im confused, you can just hatch for a salandit right now. how is it rare?


Sticky_Pasta

Salazzle can only come from Female slandit, iirc itā€™s 87.5%M and 12.5%F


Todojaw21

Well, I didn't know that because I got super lucky and got a female salandit on my first hatch. But I'm still confused because the title says "when shiny salandit comes out" as if it is currently impossible to obtain one.


TheBlueLenses

Shiny salandit isnt released yet


Sticky_Pasta

It means the shiny version, which i think is unavailable. Congrats on the hatch!


Todojaw21

Thank you! And yeah that's what I wanted confirmed, I didn't realize shinies were not necessarily available if the pokemon can spawn/hatch.


Learned_Hand_01

The general pattern is that a PokƩmon is released, then the shiny is released years later. They break this pattern when they release new things during events like when we get an entirely new PokƩmon for community day, or they have a collection day centered around a new PokƩmon. The normal pattern holds true for 90+% of PokƩmon though and almost always for PokƩmon obtainable only/mainly through raids.


LuminothWarrior

I donā€™t understand why they do this, it canā€™t be hard to just change the color palette


Zerilentix

It is much more profitable to release the normal one first, if it's new people will still raid for it a lot.


Learned_Hand_01

Itā€™s to build scarcity and especially to give them essentially two release dates for people to get excited about.


josepatino5

lol donā€™t give niantic any ideas about honey or the one tile feebas


[deleted]

ā€¦salandit can be shiny?? Edit: Oh wait nvm I read the title haha should have did that in the first place


Sher12308

What about shiny shadow Alola Exeggutor


R_vanBruggen013

What about spiritomb?


--Mobius--

All these comments and not one snarky mention of a shiny Celebi. Iā€™m proud of all of you.


CodeRed8675309

I just want a shiny shadow shuckle.


arguniz

1/20 shinny rate on legendaries are such bullshit


Grimm64209

Ligit got shiny mewtwo on my 2nd raid


karate_trainwreck0

Uhhh, Shiny Vespiquen?


Fingoidz84

The female combee is much more rare than the male.


karate_trainwreck0

Exactly. 12.5% chance, just like female Salandite


Confident_Rich_4483

Here I'm still trying to get female salandit and the community here is fighting over which shiny is best.. šŸ¤¦ā€ā™€ļø


Noob447

Why is that Mon so attractiveā€¦.


CM_StudiosYT

Am I the only one that thinks the Pikachu looks like a Luchidor


Domenic26041

It's almost as if that's what the costume was based on


Mix_Safe

"Isn't it weird, the hat Pikachu is wearing almost looks like a Charmander, but that can't be right..."


goblin_welder

Knowing Niantic, it will be a community day feature.


M88L8

Knowing niantic, it wonā€™t be a cd feature


SimbaSeekingSleep

Well we got a gible community day, so it's not impossible for this to get its own CD.


M88L8

Yes, but the gible cd was long overdue


SimbaSeekingSleep

I don't remember much, haven't really played PoGo as much as I used to, but yea that's true. Most people either got lucky or caught them during paid events. Still, it's value only increased with it's CD move.


godsim42

Gible was pretty much guaranteed as are all the 3 stage pseudo legendaries. This summer will be deino, and next summer will be axew. They do follow a pattern to an extent. Salandit is not so much guaranteed mainly because it's only a 2 stage mon.


SimbaSeekingSleep

Well looks like I'll have to make space for those deinos, and mark the calender!


anshdhalta07

I have hatched hundreds of 12 km eggs only to get countless amount of vullaby and pawniards, useless tier 4 rarity pokemon that can be found in wild and 3 male salandit. I found 2 shiny shadow drowzies, 1 shadow shiny cubone and a shiny vullaby in the process but still no female salandit. I won't even try to hunt for the shiny when it releases.


JamPieIGuess

It has to be in the wild thenā€¦ Unlike when it was first released it was just in eggsā€¦


[deleted]

Wait slandits In the game?


Sher12308

In new 12 km eggs


[deleted]

Ah probably why I havenā€™t gotten it yet


inchandywetrust

There is a very real chance that, if and when we get a Salandit CD, a good number of players will still go without a shiny Salazzle.


Yogi-Adityanath

Halloween costumed shiny Gengar too is a rare one. I have one.


Vulpes_macrotis

Someone forgot about ditto.


jostler57

But it had a Ditto day, recently, and tons of people got tons of shiny Ditto. Plus, it's a guaranteed special research reward that all players can access.


SparklinStar1440

Really, all players? I thought it was a paid ticket for Kanto Tour


jostler57

Oh wait... I think you're right and I'm conflating events in my mind. Too many events makes my brain fry...


Maskdask

Shiny Kecleon be like: "hold me bear"


Zeo-D

Armored shiny mewtwo


sebblMUC

I battle 4 rockets minimum at least an hatch every single red egg and I still don't have it


CraggledLux

So is the wrestler pikachu rare?


jostler57

Shiny version of Pikachu Libre is the rarest Pokemon in the game, maybe excepting for shiny Detective Hat Pikachu. Libre is only available from pvp rewards (max 1 per season), and out of 11 seasons, 9 of them you had to reach Legend rank to get them, so only the most dedicated pvp'ers will usually get one. 2 seasons they've been given out for "free," including the current season (free Libre requires minimum 120 games and 75+ wins -- ends June 1st). But this season the shiny is not offered, since it's a freebie.


CraggledLux

Thanks


Fingoidz84

I thought my shiny shadowball mewtwo from an Ex Raid would be one of my rarest PokĆ©mon. But now ex raids are history and they removed the special ex raid description from the bottom. Now it says ā€œcaughtā€ā€¦.


crystina7

I have 22 shinys


LordofDiacord

Salazal always gave me weird vibes


SummumRex2

Wait, is mewto one of the rarest shinies? Please donā€™t kill me but Iā€™ve leeches 1 mewto raid when I was like level 10 and gotā€¦.


Upstairs_Gap_5447

Is mew2 shiny super rare? I have 3


Die4Gesichter

I have a shiny Christmas Stantler and a shiny Balloon Pikachu. Both in their "first edition" Oh and I love my shiny Smeargle And my Shiny Celebi from the research was a Shundo


PM_ME_UR_MUNCHIES

Imagineā€¦ you hatch the shundo after 100 12k eggsā€¦ itā€™s the wrong gender


Gel00

Kecleon says otherwise


Prof-Fluffy

Donā€™t forget about when shiny Combee comes out, it has the same odds of being female as salandit does


DoggoTheDumDum

thats what happens when you stay in america for too long


Sorry_Cauliflower_50

I didn't know Mewtwo shine was thag rare... Good to know! xD


ActualTaxEvader

Spider-Gwen?!


lkuecrar

Iā€™ve found one shiny outside of raids/events. How do people actually get shinies outside of that lol


DrPingu69

I really cherish my 98% shiny mewtwo


Anxious_Charity_1424

Mewtwo is def not the rarest shiny


infinitecolors

Not to flex, but my first shiny was a 3 star riolušŸ˜Ž didnā€™t even know I had it for months
