Why are some people so autistic about shiny pokemon?
I can't help it.
>>58257690
>>58257310the right one is really cool DAE notice this
>>58257310Because you have to be autistic to care about shiny Pokémon.
shiny pokemon lost all appeal to me when they doubled the base odds and added a million methods to increase them furtherthe hunt doesnt feel fulfilling anymore
>>58257310they made them too easy to get
>>58259024Is....is it because it BLACK with BLOOD RED WINGS??? As in it looks like an evil CHARIZARD which is really COOL as if it's about to go berserk with it's awesome power at any time but holds back because it doesn't want to hurt its trainer who accepted it despite it being shunned by even champions for being too powerful??? Oh I DEFINITELY noticed this!!
>>58257310it's like gambling but free, objectively the better skinner box
>>58259052didnt mean to attach this image but fuck it we ball
>>58259042to be fair, shiny pokemon were never truly "worth" anything in a material sense, but for me shiny hunting was always about the journeyhanging out with friends and watching a show, heading outside and going places while hunting, sharing the experience with someone elseand even when you're not hunting, the sheer rarity of shinies at full odds from gens 2-5 makes them super exciting and memorable to encounterevery shiny i have pre-gen 6 has memories behind it, meanwhile i dont even remember finding the majority of the shinies i have in nu-pokemonit saddens me how trivial shinies have become
>>58259061anyone caught up in the "value" of shinies as if they're some kind of currency is obviously retarded as fuck.I agree with the rest of what you say, the adrenaline hit of getting one in the old gens has never subsided for me, and I've got over 20 of them now. They were the perfect blend of the journey and the destination in a way that cant be replaced by mark hunting or other shit.
>>58259046It’s ACTUALLY because shiny Charizard has a pure white underbody meaning he has a BWC and is therefore the white man’s patrician european dragon choice
>>58257310Why wouldn't they be? Pokemon is already up there with Sonic and literally any Nintendo franchise as the community with the largest and most prolific autists.When you have so many it's only natural you have autistic sub-communities within.
>>58257365>that nicknameKek
>>58259061haha lol no the random zubat or geadude you find in old gens is nothing compared to the jumbo marked shiny haxorus in a beastball i got 2 weeks ago
>>58259821>zubat or geadudeTry a met at level 70 shiny lapras at village bridge.
>>58259827>no dream ballreleased
idk why there arent shades of colors for pokemon yet. like there really arent any yellow or red charizards? no albinos? no old pale ones? no pink ones? its just weird.
>>58259847Probably the same reason they made shiny locks, i don't know it's official but i heard the argument was that when 2 kids play the game they want them to have the same experience and not have the other kid think something is wrong with their different colored pokemon.
>>58257310A combination of actual autism, depression, shit parenthood and shit personality derived by shit parenthood
I like Carbuncle.
>>58259879many such cases
Shiny Pokemon thread Give me shinies to edit and fix
>>58261071I hate how the Bulbasaur line consists of the only grass starter shinies that I enjoy. The rest are either godawful or just not interesting enough.>Chikorita Alright, but only a slight difference no shiny hunter worth their salt would bother with.>TreeckoWhy the fuck are they blue? Sceptile is NOT Feraligatr, Masooda.>TurtwigConfusing teal with diarrhea green elements, I don't like it>SnivyAgain, why are they all blue? Serperior is alright I guess, but blue on a grassmon either way is silly>Chespin Probably the ones I have the least of a gripe with. Autumnal colors are fine, but there's still too much RED for a GRASS TYPE POKEMON>RowletBarf.>GrookeyHorf.>SprigatitoLiterally nothing changes. Who designed this thing? Bad kitty
>>58261071fix Palkia's pls
>>58261115At least shiny hisuian Decidueye is neat, regional form shinies that reference the original are cool.
>the ZA demo show that the game has no mass outbreaks in itfinally, shinies worth is healing
>>58261071
>>58261115Not too blue because they look like water types I guess, but not too red, because then the look like fire types I guess, but not too green either because then it looks too similar Anon, do you even know what you want?
>>58261115AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HELP ME THIS GRASS TYPE IS BLUE AND RED AIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Aye.
>>58261314They could put the odds at 1/8192 and drop all methods and they'd still be worthless because of Pokemon Go
>>58261115When you turn 11, you'll start learning the typings from more than colors
>>58259827>phenomenon shinyGo for the Dragonite at Dragonspiral Tower, you can get it up to a 20% encounter with pass powers
>>58261616Pokemon Go is what has really ruined shiny pokemon.Shiny locks may have started in gen 5, but they are now used in order sell GO resources. We aren't getting Shiny paradox trios, or Terapogos, or the Loyal 3, etcBut Pokemon GO will, fucking mobile slop.
>>58257310I think the fist legit shiny I got was from xy Charmander from the professor
>>58261716That's really lucky.I mm'd my first pentaperfect shiny Charmander for like a month. At the time I didn't have the charm so the odds were still above 1k.
>>58261115Autism
>>58261314>the L: A game didn't begin rollling for outbreaks until players had progressed far enough into the story as to aquire Wyrdeer and establish the 2nd Galaxty expedition camp in the Obsidian FieldlandsSo given L: Z-A's tied to Z-A Royale, that'll likely start spewing out outbreaks after rising to a particular rank in-game.
>>58257310Niggerizard
I never got into hunting until gen 9 funnily enoughBeing able to see the fuckers and having your lead auto-KO the junk makes all the difference
>>58261933outbreaks would be really strange in a city though, I mean what? An outbreak of Fenniken show up in the park downtown?
>>58262053thats how it starts, i only got into it with Sun & Moon and now fast forward and I'm dual hunting on GBAs
>>58257310t. the blind
>>58261983See>>58259130Shiny Charizard is white coded. His black scales are similar to black hair and his belly skin is actually skin. Cope.
>>58262559No different to a shitload of migratory birds passing through on their way to winter in africa. And as I'm well versed in seeing the fuckers swarm every autumn and know Paris/France is in the flightpath, can easily point to a real-world justification for it happening in-game.
>>58261218I went for a black pearl theme, if I made Dialga I probably would go for a white diamond theme to match Palkia here
>>58261340Black trench coat for a noir detective look, Gumshoos has light "hair" to show its grizzly opposite of Yungoos who has darker "hair" to show its youth
>>58263277heh, i like this, but then again black shinies are a cheatcode
>>58261933>implying outbreaks won’t be dlc locked just like the massive mass outbreaks in pla
>>58263427
>>58263628Trump if he blm
>>58263646Why do eurocucks see the color black and think of brown people? It’s just a cool color
>>58263446>retard was too poor to even emulate L: AOutbreaks happened regardless when you established camp #2, in-game as part of the experience (they even had an NPC hint shiny pokémon were more common from outbreak rolls). They were also even easier to manipulate as if you saved on the map, then left and returned, the OB would persist, but the game would re-roll shiny chance.
>>58259052this is a good way to think about it, although you also don't win any money
>>582573656 million KOs and not one less. Don’t you dare go through the court cases wherein no one stated the bodies would’ve turned pink consistent with the usage of the alleged chemical. Don’t do it!!!!
