Anacybele Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 (edited) It looks like they might be, people! I was playing the game today while out and I sometimes look at gyms to see what Pokemon are there (any Pokemon you've not seen or caught will have their silhouette added to the Pokedex), and one trainer had a shiny Gyarados. This could just be because of the well known one from gen 2, but it doesn't have its own Pokedex entry or anything as far as I can tell. And it wouldn't be cool to include one shiny Pokemon and not the rest. I haven't seen any news saying shiny Pokemon were added though. I get news in my Facebook feed. But maybe I haven't seen it yet. I haven't been paying attention THAT closely. On another note, I caught a Typhlosion. :D Edited June 18, 2017 by Anacybele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MediocreLee Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 I haven't played in a while, but I do know that Shiny Magikarp was a thing a while back and can still be found in the wild. I happened to see a Shiny Gyarados holding down a gym while I was in Japan also. But if they happened to add shinies to the other Pokemon then I'm all for it.

Jave Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 They added Shiny Magikarps during the water event a while back, but that was the only one, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted June 18, 2017 Author Share Posted June 18, 2017 Well, I hope other shinies are eventually added then. Because that's not cool, having just a couple shiny Pokemon and not the rest. I'd love to get a shiny Bellossom! It's one of my favorite shinies ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MediocreLee Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 I think they did the shiny Magikarp thing to kinda reflect the Red/Shiny Gyarados thing in Gen 2, and also the fact that Gen 2 introduced the whole shiny Pokemon thing as well. But I agree, I hope they implement more shiny Pokemon because all Pokemon deserve love. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
