Palette swap shiny pokemon5/30/2023 ![]() Honorable MentionsĪll of these Pokémon have really good shinies because the chosen pinks fit with the Pokémon's original tone. All in all, Lopunny and Mega Lopunny might have the same color changes, but both are still able to rock that pink in their own ways. While it's a simple change, it suits both forms very well Lopunny's shiny form gives off a more timid, feminine vibe, and Mega Lopunny still has that femininity but will still kick your ass. Both Lopunny and Mega Lopunny replace their bushy features' color in a rose pink with a slightly altered brown for the rest of its body. There's nothing wrong with that, though in fact, I think that both shiny forms look very pleasant with their design and are easily transferable between the regular design's and Mega design's different moods. Some look wildly different, while others like Mega Lopunny kept the same palette. When Game Freak introduced Mega Evolution, some were curious as to how their shiny forms would look. Plus, the small details in green twins with the color of its leaves, and color coordination is always welcomed. Though the white originally looked good with its purple "cloak," or whatever it is, the shade of pink as a replacement looks better in my opinion due to how extremely well it compliments the purple. Personally, I think the colors of Oranguru's shiny form are better than those of its normal form. When it comes to the color changes, it's fairly simple the former white is replaced by a generic but pleasing purplish pink touched with accents of dark green instead of orange. With Oranguru, while it could be said its reception was mixed, it has quite an interesting design further bolstered by its shiny form. When Sun and Moon was the buzz, many of the comments about the games were mostly towards the Pokémon. Designs like Crobat that can have their tone changed with a color swap are always appreciated, and it so happens that Crobat's unique and bright pink shiny form is a good example of that. Design-wise, Crobat is supposed to look intimidating with its original dark purple color scheme however, with its shiny form, it becomes a very cute Pokémon you'd probably want to snuggle with, though it'll most likely be annoyed at that. ![]() The light olive green on its wings surprisingly pairs well with the blush pink, but I believe the real combo here is the color and its design. Though Crobat's shiny form carries a rather popular shade of light pink, it's actually one of the only shiny Pokémon to have it, with really no other pink carried by a shiny coming close to being this bright. Overall, however, pink suits Toxapex well enough to be one of the best pink shiny Pokémon out there. Bubblegum, magenta, rouge, lipstick, scarlet, crimson, and more you name it, and Toxapex can flaunt it. Furthermore, I could argue that Toxapex can look good with other shades of pink and even red. Toxapex's shiny form is a chilled, soft, and almost fleshy pink, and with that color complementing its starfish design really well, it's no wonder it'll be calming to look at as it flawlessly tanks all of your Pokémon's attacks. I'm sure that most of you reading this get a headache playing against Toxapex in OU, almost as if you're actually wearing it on your head although, if it's shiny, at least you'll look stylish with it on. With it now having green where the pink used to be, it looks like a watermelon, and who doesn't love watermelon? Overall, I feel Virizion's shiny is one of the rare occurrences where the shiny form gives off the same feeling the regular form does, but my statement that its shiny form is better still stands. It really helps that its design and shade of pink work almost flawlessly together, with the soft, cool pink colliding with its elegant design. We're all going to collectively agree that the Swords of Justice's battle theme is one of the best themes in Pokémon, okay? Virizion's shiny inverses the green and pink parts of its regular form, and it ends up looking really good, and in my opinion better, than its regular form. Anyways, these are the best and worst of pink shiny Pokémon! Instead, write your own laws for others to disagree on. Keep in mind, though, that you're welcomed to disagree, but this is my list, so don't act like I'm breaking the law by writing my own. Here, I will be looking at a handful of pink shiny Pokémon to either praise their pink or, um, "pink-shame" them, if you will. ![]() Others, though, show that "pretty in pink" really only applies to some. Ever notice how there's oddly a lot of shiny Pokémon that are pink? Within that large amount, however, there are many shiny forms that are very pleasant to the eye, up to par with its regular form and sometimes even better than it.
