[[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.
