[[Generation V]] introduced a mechanism often referred to by fans as a "{{DL|Appendix:Fan_terminology|Shiny-locked|Shiny lock}}", preventing {{p|Reshiram}}, {{p|Zekrom}}, and {{p|Victini}} from being encountered as Shiny, however Shiny sprites for all three exist in the games' data. All Pokémon obtained in [[Entree Forest]] (i.e., from the {{g|Dream World}}) are also prevented from being Shiny. The {{p|Zorua}} gifted at [[Castelia City]]{{sup/5|BW}}, and the {{p|Zoroark}} encountered in [[Lostlorn Forest]]{{sup/5|BW}} are also prevented from being Shiny.

In {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, the player can obtain three specific Shiny Pokémon (however two are mutually exclusive and cannot both be obtained by the same savefile). If the player registers every non-event Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by Unova Pokédex number (Black 2 and White 2)|Unova Pokédex]], they can receive a [[Permit]] that allows them to travel to the [[Nature Preserve]], where they can encounter a Shiny {{p|Haxorus}}. After defeating [[Benga]] in the [[Black Tower]]{{sup/5|B2}} or [[White Treehollow]]{{sup/5|W2}}, Benga will give the player a Shiny {{p|Gible}}{{sup/5|B2}} or Shiny {{p|Dratini}}{{sup/5|W2}}, the player can only choose one. Additionally, all of [[N]]'s Pokémon that can be found in the wild or obtained as a gift are coded to never appear as Shiny. | |||
Starting in Generation V, Pokémon in the [[Pokédex]] will appear Shiny if the first specimen of that Pokémon encountered was Shiny. | Starting in Generation V, Pokémon in the [[Pokédex]] will appear Shiny if the first specimen of that Pokémon encountered was Shiny. | ||
