A '''Shiny Pokémon''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|光|ひか}}るポケモン''' ''Shiny Pokémon''), previously officially known as '''alternate coloration''' or '''rare coloration''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|色違い|いろちがい}}''' ''differently colored''), and called '''Color Pokémon''' in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]], is a specific {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with different coloration to what is usual for its species. It is one of the many differences that a Pokémon can have within its species.

In [[Pokémon Rumble]], Shiny Pokémon may rarely appear. They will always tip over when defeated. The chances of their appearance are unconfirmed, although they appear to occur more often than in the core series. Shiny Pokémon are always given a special trait, a blue name in menus, and a star below their picture on the Collection screen. Some Shiny Pokémon can be obtained by the use of passwords.

* In [[Generation III]] onwards, it is possible for an {{pkmn|Egg}} to hatch Shiny on one game but not another. This is because Shininess is partially determined by the Original [[Trainer ID]] and [[Secret ID]] number. Eggs have the ID and SID of the game they were originally bred on, but change to the ID and SID of the hatcher immediately after hatching. It is this change that affects Shininess.

** Confusingly, this means that if a player hatches a traded Egg that would have been Shiny on the game it was originally bred on, it will appear Shiny on the hatching screen (since it still has the ID and SID of the original game), and then suddenly no longer be Shiny afterward (once it has obtained the ID and SID of the hatcher's game). Conversely, it is also possible for a newly hatched Egg to not appear Shiny on the hatching screen and then suddenly become Shiny afterward, if the Egg has been traded.

** While all (Generation III onward) {{pkmn2|event}} Eggs are set to prevent or force Shininess, if a player other than the one who obtained it from the event hatches the Egg, this prevention is bypassed, allowing an event Egg to hatch Shiny. This is the only way to obtain a Shiny Manaphy.
