The Question of the Day is a way to facilitate community discussion to help members ponder the unanswered questions of the world that are somehow relating to the hobby.

Helpful Considerations may or may not help some people focus their answer, these are blurred to not bother those who have their own ideas.
Today’s Question:
*QotD: Which shiny Pokemon have a colour scheme that really doesn’t feel shiny to you and why? And which shiny one is the shiniest? *
Helpful Considerations: muddy colours, lighter colours, metallic look? This was a suggested question.
I’m sure we have had this talk before. But, anyhow, pretty much a vast swathe of scarlet and violet pokemon are just the same. The worst pokemon I’ve ever seen for a shiny is maushold.
Guess which one is base form, guess which one is shiny. Or am I simply posting the base form twice?
i don’t mean any offense with this question but do you ever disagree with anyone lol. all of your comments are quoting and agreeing and restating what someone else said. no one is that agreeable (i would know, i’ve certainly tried)!! the only things i know that are this agreeable are LLMs
As for my least favorite shiny Pokémon, it’s basically all Pokémon that barely change in color in their shiny forms.
Pikachu and Raichu for example; Jigglypuff & Wigglytuff; Meowth & Persian; Goldeen & Seaking; Flareon; Snorlax; and Zapdos (I only went over the gen 1 Pokémon this time).
If the difference between the regular version and shiny version is so subtle, you wouldn’t even be able to tell the difference between a shiny variant and the regular variant in the shadows or under a light in a TCG artwork, then it’s honestly a shitty shiny color imho.
These are shinies I actually like. There’s a few others I didn’t post. Like Absol, both Raikou and Siscune have decent shines and if course Ray does too.
Talmonflame I’m up in the air about. I want to like but I’m not sure I Do
For Raichu specifically, I think the game Shiny is really disappointing as many pointed out already. I have the Pokémon Soda Pop Plush for Raichu and I’ve just convinced myself this is the shiny color scheme for Raichu.
That’s amazing
The diamond remake? I got that game spent a hour on it and just couldn’t. Took it to a game shop and swapped it for Arceus. I haven’t gone shiny hunting on that game but I have in other.
every letter of unown should be a different color in its shiny form. That would make it cool. Because no matter what color shiny you make it otherwise, its just unown.
