[[Generation V]] introduced a mechanism often referred to as a "Shiny lock", preventing {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Reshiram}}, {{p|Zekrom}}, and {{p|Victini}} from being Shiny. Any Pokémon obtained in [[Entree Forest]] (i.e., from the [[Pokémon Dream World]]) are also prevented from being Shiny. Reshiram, Zekrom, and Victini still have Shiny sprites in the games' data.

In {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, the player can obtain three specific Shiny Pokémon (but only two per version). If the player registers every non-event Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by New Unova Pokédex number|New 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}}.
