This is a '''list of unobtainable [[Shiny Pokémon]]''' in the [[Pokémon games]].


==List==
==Availability==
In all [[generation]]s since Shiny Pokémon debuted, there are a few species that cannot be legitimately obtained Shiny. This can happen if the Pokémon cannot be Shiny in the wild or as an in-game gift (or cannot be obtained this way at all) and has never been distributed as Shiny. However, with the exception of [[Pikachu in a cap]], and [[Partner Pokémon (game)|Partner]] {{p|Pikachu}} and {{p|Eevee}}, all of these Pokémon have Shiny variants in their respective games' code.
In all [[generation]]s since Shiny Pokémon debuted, there are a few species that cannot be legitimately obtained as Shiny. These Pokémon are commonly referred to as {{DL|Appendix:Fan_terminology|Shiny-locked}}. This can happen if the Pokémon is coded not to appear as Shiny in the {{pkmn2|wild}}, or via in-game {{pkmn2|gift}}s, [[in-game trade]]s, {{pkmn|breeding}}, or has never been distributed as Shiny via {{pkmn2|event}}s.


Shiny Pokémon denoted with a '''~''' could not be received in-game, but could be acquired through [[Event Pokémon|event distributions]] or [[transfer]].
However, with the exception of [[Pikachu in a cap]], the {{ga|Partner Pokémon|Partner}} {{p|Pikachu}} and {{p|Eevee}}, and {{p|Magearna}} (Magearna's standard form is missing its Shiny form in [[Generation VII]] only), all of these Pokémon have Shiny variants in their respective games' code, regardless of their availability.


Shiny Pokémon denoted with a '''✘''' could not be obtained by any means, either in a specific version, denoted by abbreviations for said game(s), or the generation as a whole.
Starting from [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]], all in-game event Pokémon encounters, such as [[Legendary Pokémon]], are programmed to never be Shiny.
 
===List===
The following is a non-comprehensive list of notable species that have been subject to Shiny locks in a given game, or generation, with some having extremely limited conditions for being obtained as Shiny.
 
* Shiny Pokémon denoted with a '''✔''' can be obtained in-game, either in a specific version, denoted by abbreviations for said game(s), or the generation as a whole.
* Shiny Pokémon denoted with a '''~''' could not be obtained in-game directly, but could be acquired through [[Event Pokémon|event distributions]] or [[transfer]] from other games.
* Shiny Pokémon denoted with a '''✘''' could not be obtained by any means, either in a specific version, denoted by abbreviations for said game(s), or the generation as a whole.
<!--* Shiny Pokémon denoted with a '''?''' are yet to be determined.-->

Latest revision as of 01:25, 8 June 2024

This is a list of unobtainable Shiny Pokémon in the Pokémon games.

Availability

In all generations since Shiny Pokémon debuted, there are a few species that cannot be legitimately obtained as Shiny. These Pokémon are commonly referred to as Shiny-locked. This can happen if the Pokémon is coded not to appear as Shiny in the wild, or via in-game gifts, in-game trades, breeding, or has never been distributed as Shiny via events.

However, with the exception of Pikachu in a cap, the Partner Pikachu and Eevee, and Magearna (Magearna's standard form is missing its Shiny form in Generation VII only), all of these Pokémon have Shiny variants in their respective games' code, regardless of their availability.

Starting from Pokémon Legends: Arceus, all in-game event Pokémon encounters, such as Legendary Pokémon, are programmed to never be Shiny.

List

The following is a non-comprehensive list of notable species that have been subject to Shiny locks in a given game, or generation, with some having extremely limited conditions for being obtained as Shiny.

  • Shiny Pokémon denoted with a can be obtained in-game, either in a specific version, denoted by abbreviations for said game(s), or the generation as a whole.
  • Shiny Pokémon denoted with a ~ could not be obtained in-game directly, but could be acquired through event distributions or transfer from other games.
  • Shiny Pokémon denoted with a could not be obtained by any means, either in a specific version, denoted by abbreviations for said game(s), or the generation as a whole.

Notes

  1. In Generation I and II, shininess and gender are both derived from the Pokémon's DVs. Due to this quirk, Pokémon that have a "1 ♀ : 7 ♂" gender ratio cannot simultaneously be both female and Shiny in Generation II.
  2. In v1.2 of Poké Transporter, when transferring Pokémon from Generation I, gender was determined randomly instead of being determined by the Attack DV. As a result, prior to v1.3, it was possible for Transporter to generate 1 ♀ : 7 ♂ gender ratio Pokémon as both female and Shiny.
  3. Partner Cap Pikachu is available in its Shiny form due to a programming error, (as long as the player's TSV is not equal to 1009), however it does not have a visually distinct Shiny model or sprite. While it can be transferred from Generation VII to Pokémon HOME and later generations, there are currently no assets in HOME, nor any compatible game where it appears with the correct Shiny coloration.
  4. Shiny Mew can be obtained legitimately as part of the Gotta catch 'em all! Station, the Japanese version of Pokémon Emerald via the Old Sea Map event item, or via Pokémon GO's Mew Masterwork Research quest. However, it cannot be obtained legitimately in Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, nor transferred into Let's Go via GO Park or HOME.
  5. Due to the way DVs determine both Unown's letter and Shininess in Generation II, all forms except the letters I and V cannot be Shiny.
  6. Shiny Celebi can be obtained legitimately in the original Japanese version of Pokémon Crystal, through Generation II event distributions, and via in-game encounter in the Virtual Console releases of Pokémon Crystal. Notably, Virtual Console Pokémon can only be moved forward into Generation VII or above (via Pokémon Bank), while those obtained in physical cartridge versions of the game cannot move forward to Generation III or above.
  7. Due an oversight in the generation methods, Shiny Jirachi can be obtained legitimately in both Pokémon Channel and the North American version of the Pokémon Colosseum Bonus Disc, but they were largely blocked from online play until after the 2014 Tanabata Shiny Jirachi event was released in Generation VI. It can also be obtained legitimately via Pokémon GO's Jirachi Masterwork Research quest.
  8. Shiny Deoxys can be obtained legitimately in both Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen and Pokémon Emerald via the Aurora Ticket event item, (excluding the Japanese version of Emerald), or via Raid Battles in Pokémon GO.
  9. While the Ranger Manaphy Egg cannot hatch as Shiny for the savefile that receives it, it can be Shiny if traded and hatched by another player with a different Trainer ID and Secret ID from the original recipient. Shiny Manaphy can only be obtained this way in Generation IV, as TSV abuse was fixed in Pokémon Sword and Shield onward.
  10. Requires the Member Card event item. Shiny Darkrai can also be obtained legitimately via Raid Battles in Pokémon GO.
  11. Requires the Oak's Letter event item. Shiny Shaymin can also be obtained legitimately via Pokémon GO's Shaymin Masterwork Research quest.
  12. The Pokémon HOME Melmetal (gifted to the player the first time they transfer a Pokémon via GO Transporter), cannot be Shiny. Shiny Melmetal (obtained by evolving Shiny Meltan from the Mystery Box in Pokémon GO), if transferred to Sword or Shield, cannot be given Max Soup to gain the Gigantamax Factor.
  13. Eternamax Form is not obtainable by the player in Generation VIII. The Eternatus encountered during Sword and Shield's main story cannot be Shiny, and the event Shiny Eternatus distributed to players cannot be changed to Eternamax Form.
  14. Due to an oversight, from June 17th, 2022 to approximately 2:00-11:00 UTC on the 18th, the Gigantamax Urshifu that appeared during the June 17 to 19, 2022 Wild Area News event could appear as Shiny, (and could even be registered in the Pokédex as Shiny), but was coded to be impossible to catch.
  15. Only Chest Form was available as Shiny via 5★ Tera raids, (without an increased chance to appear as Shiny), during the June 21 to July 2, 2023 Poké Portal News event. All Chest Form Gimmighoul encountered as static encounters in Scarlet and Violet, and Roaming Form Gimmighoul encountered in Pokémon GO are coded never to appear as Shiny. No other events to date have allowed it to be Shiny.
