The only subjective category. These are Shinies that you’d consider cream of the crop, beautiful, and/or wonder why they’re not the og color scheme to begin with.
Smash Alt Palette Swap
These are Shinies who, if they were in Smash Bros or another fighting game, would be the Alt color you could use.
No Colors Anymore, I Want to Paint it Black
Shinies that are pure black. Like Charizard and Greninja. Ironically not Gothitelle 🤔
Pretty in Pink
Self explanatory, but Shinies that are pure pink. A Gen 2 classic!
Seeing Red
Shinies that are pure red. Lake of Rage anyone?
It isn’t Easy Being Green
Another Gen 2 classic! Shinies that are pure green. I hope they’re not sick…
Feeling Blue
Shinies that are pure blue. Not as cold as they look.
I Can See it in Your Eyes
Shinies that you can only really tell if they’re shiny if they’re eye color is different. Unfortunately like Armarouge and Ceruledge…
*Squints*
Shinies you’d be goddamn lucky you didn’t accidentally skip, faint, or transfer (Go). Even with the shiny mark on its page, you’d still wonder if they’re actually shiny or not.
DPP we’re my first Pokémon games, Pearl specifically. I loved every moment of it and tbh I only ever beat Cynthia one single time in my many replays of the games. So how am I only just now noticing that in BDSP
They took away my poor mom’s seat!!
She watched her Contests all day every day and now she has to stand to do it
I’ve been meaning to redraw this portrait from Pokémon brilliant diamond and shining pearl since the game were released but I’ve only just now gotten around to it
I made concept art for the Pokepasta I’m gonna write!
If you wanna know wtf I’m talking about, here’s the post I talk about it!
I made art of it! The only thing that’s not mine is the backround, which is from the BDSP grand underground! (In the pasta it’s gonna be the ds versiom with ds screenshots, but ds screenshots didn’t fit with the art style of the drawing so I used the BDSP switch versions instead, just to clarify.)
One thing I truly love about Pokémon is that you’re a child. Just walking along. Exploring with your buddies. Having a grand time. And then you meet a whole organization about to end the world somehow and you increasingly make yourself their enemy. And then you inevitably run into one of their leaders OUT OF NOWHERE and they don’t “oh it’s YOU” or even “wow it’s just a kid?? Geez you’re killing my whole group, HOLY COW”. They just “IT IS SAID IN LEGEND THAT THE BEGINNING OF ALL THINGS HAPPENED ON THIS FALLEN LOG HERE AND IM PLANNING TO FIST FIGHT GOD REGARDLESS OF WHAT THAT MIGHT MEAN FOR THE REST OF THE WORLD AND YOU :( :( :( :( WON’T LET ME”
