Top Ten Worst Shiny Pokemon

The Top Ten
1 Pikachu Pikachu (Japanese: ピカチュウ) are a species of Pokémon, fictional creatures that appear in an assortment of video games, animated television shows and movies, trading card games, and comic books licensed by The Pokémon Company, a Japanese corporation. A mascot of the Pokemon franchise, it's considered to be the most iconic character of all Pokemon species, as well as a major character in Japanese pop culture, due to its companionship with Ash Ketchum in the anime series. Pikachu has been featured in movies such as Pokemon Detective Pikachu as well as music videos - most notably Katy Perry's "Electric" in 2021.

Me: ar' you fkin srs this shiny is ... YELLOW
My friend: yes but he's abit darker
Me: tf, bro I tell you there's no difference
My friend: but there is
Me: just shut up at this point. There is NO difference

It's so annoying when shinies are just a different tint. Pikachu could have been blue, or maybe brown

Man there is SUCH a big difference in the shiny and the normal pikachu

The hint of yellow is just a tad different

2 Espeon Espeon, known in Japan as Eifie, is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.

I really love the Green color since Green is my favorite color.

I do like green, but I think blue will be good on it. And white with the gem. - UltimateHarms

Hey! Stop hating in green! I love green! - Raichu

How dare you puke on my favorite pokemon?!

3 Dragonite Dragonite, known in Japan as Kairyu, is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.

I really like Dragonair and its shiny. Drangonite, it's an 'okay' Pokémon. But the shiny is TERRIBLE. Green and purple do NOT go well together, especially on Dragonite. GAME FREAK has had many chances to fix this, but they never did. Pikachu's shiny is really bad too, but I think shinies with a bad color palette is worse than shinies you can't notice. Although they might be equally bad, whatever you all choose.

I think it's fine. Shiny pokemon are meant to be quirky with weird colours

Green and purple are two colors that don't go together. Even worse, it has an ugly green color! It is my number one worst shiny Pokémon. Dratini and dragonair have excellent shinies!

"That's an ugly shade of green." No it's not

4 Garchomp Garchomp, known in Japan as Gaburias, is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.

Terrible in every sense of the word with Garchomp's shiny. The only change is the blue becomes a grayish-blue and the red spot on its belly becomes orange! Only some of the most keen eyed shiny hunters can tell a normal one from a s shiny. What's more, the change is not pretty! There are some subtle shinies done well; regice, the togepie line is fine, both glacion and leafion, and even pikachu looks so much better than garchomp! They kind of improved with his shiny with his mega, which becomes magenta and purple, and while it doesn't make it look fearsome at all, dang it those colors look good on garchomp! If only his base shiny was as good as his mega. I applaud you if you can tell the difference from a regular to a shiny and it you hunt it, I suggest gibl e or gabite (unless you evolve your shinies, which I do.)

If it did not have shiny particles, you can't tell the difference unless you are the most observant person in the world

Am I a shiny or just got covered in a thin layer of dust this shiny sucks

He has no shiny color difference. Can't he used the shiny Gible color?

5 Gengar Gengar, known in Japan by the same name, is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.

The difference between a regular Gengar and a shiny Gengar is so subtle

Can't tell difference between normal and shiny

Mega Gengar tho

6 Ursaring

How come the algorithm used to determine shinies gave Giratina an absolutely beautiful shiny, but turned Ursaring into a radioactive gummy bear? It’s kinda silly, not necessarily bad, but the algorithm didn’t really bless this Pokémon like it did others.

7 Volbeat

People This is Really a Pokemon Look it up it's a bug Type pokemon it's a male Verson of illumise

Lol who even put the band artist Volbeat

Volbeat is an actual Pokemon. Look it up

This is no pokemon

8 Weavile

The Pokémon looks cool Norman but turning it pink really makes it look less of a savage killer

Pink. Gold. Peach. Why?!

9 Crustle
10 Scyther
The Contenders
11 Munna
12 Rotom Rotom, known in Japan as the same name, is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.
13 Lunatone

Sorry I do hate this one, but guy who said game freaks made this boring, game freaks does not pick what the shiny pokemon look like, it's actually the games

Really a different color I

14 Kingdra Kingdra, known in Japan as Kingdra, is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.
15 Cascoon
16 Solrock

#1 worst shiny Pokemon emboar looks sick

17 Flaaffy
18 Togekiss
19 Groudon Groudon, known in Japan as the same name, is a Legendary Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.

Looks like Cubchoo gave him a snotty hug

20 Regigigas Regigigas, known in Japan as the same name, is a Legendary Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.

Regigigas is the worst legendary of all time. Maybe they will give him a break with a kick butt shiny right? But no they only changed the yellow bits to blue. And not even a nice shade of blue. I mean come on BLUEBERRY BLUE?! It looks horrible! I still love you regigigas, even with a horrible shiny.

One of my favorite Pokemon. Sadly purple doesn't look too good on him.

21 Infernape Infernape, known in Japan as Goukazaru, is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.
22 Dewgong Dewgong, known in Japan as Jugon, is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.
23 Glaceon Glaceon, known in Japan as Glacia, is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.

Oh oh oh. The only thing they did was turn his feet and tips of his "tufts" and tail from green to blue. Seriously. That's it. Well I guess his light blue is a little... lighter but his TUFTS don't CHANGE! AGAIN WITH THE HELIOPTILE AND HELIOLISK! THEY FORGOT TO COLOR A PART OF HIM! AGAIN!

#2 worst shiny #1 is cosmog

24 Seaking
25 Regice Regice is a legendary Pokemon and part of the Regi trio. According to scientific research its body is made entirely of Antarctic ice during an ice age. It is said to always control frigid air of minus 328 degrees F. Regice was first introduced in Generation III. Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, FireRed, and LeafGreen.

It doesn't even look different! I got one through Wonder Trade and I couldn't even tell it was shiny! If it wasn't for the particles, I might have traded it away! It's like Pikachu, but even more similar!

That should be a shiny?!?!?
