    Shiny Primal Kyogre is a nod to real-life orcas who are black and white, while shiny Primal Groudon could be something burnt or cooled off magma with cracks on them, since Groudon has magma running down its body, shiny Rayquaza and Mega Rayquaza are black like space, since there is not much life to be around in the vastness of space itself.

    Pokemon Gen 1 - 5 shinnies are algorithmically color palettes, so majority of Pokemon shinnies have no meaning, only few Pokemon were chosen their shiny colors like Pikachu, Charizard, Gyarados and Sudowoodo because those Pokemon were more special or their shiny was part of game story. Its only from Gen 6 onwards that color palettes for the shiny Pokemon were hand picked

    • @spencersholden
      @spencersholden 11 місяців тому +10

      And a few legendaries and mythicals. Celebi and Ho-Oh for sure are not algorithm generated.

    • @Dougbro1
      @Dougbro1 11 місяців тому +11

      The algorithmic palette swap thing is unconfirmed, but highly likely for a lot of Pokémon. That being said, as you have said, the developers would then indeed change certain shinies, although they might do it for more than just "special" Pokémon. There's a decent Lockstin & Gnoggin video that explains how true each possibility is. His speculation is that EVERY palette-chosen colouration is run by the devs before they are approved and finalized, and a bunch might have been tweaked, while others were left as-is. The TLDR is, it's probable, but unconfirmed which ones were tweaked and which ones weren't.

    It’s possible that Shiny Arcanine and Shiny Ninetales are also based off of Pokémon Gold & Silver’s colors, similar to Ho-Oh. The evidence comes from both Pokémon being version-exclusive Fire-Type counterparts of each other, with the Growlithe family being found in Gold and the Vulpix family being found in Silver.
    A similar occurrence is also seen in Pokémon Ruby & Sapphire with Duskull and Shuppet’s Shiny colors, however it’s worth noting that they’re not true version exclusives, moreso just having flipped encounter rates for the most part.

    Only 30 seconds in and I'm already exasperated. This isn't explaining, this is "speculating." No, shiny Charizard isn't black because its a reference to being "charred," its that color because it "looks cool." Shiny Charizard literally used to be purple before they gave it a new design. In fact, a lot of the earlier Shiny colorations were likely made by putting a color filter over the normal sprites and calling it a day.
    And I highly doubt the squirtle line is based on the koopa troopa... Last I checked, regular turtles stereotypically have green shells.💀

    Foongus and amoongus are a great ball, not a master. They're blue, not purple

    OG shiny zard is best zard, also it was the direct opposite of dragonites where the body and wing colors are switched referencing them as rivals.

      Shiny origins have rarely if ever had official confirmation for their origins, so of course explanations are going to be educated speculation.
