Any encounter with an overworld Pokémon that is described as "very strong-looking"—in essence, is above the level limit above which a trainer cannot catch a Pokémon—cannot appear as Shiny. Once it is below that limit, it can appear as Shiny once encountered. No Pokémon in {{g|Sword and Shield}} will appear Shiny in the overworld; they must be encountered before they can appear Shiny.
