Locomotion Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Hello, i've just started the game and got an old rod. Then i headed to the closest water source i saw and i think i got a shiny grimmer... It have a star on the side of it's name and its a little darker than other grimmers (i always tought that shiny grimmers should be green ? ). So.. Is this rare ? Is it really a shiny ? Is it worth keeping it in my team ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dead account Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Shinies in Reborn have different colours to shinies in other pokemon games. Vivillon, for example, has a very different and evil looking shiny sprite in Reborn compared to it's normal colours, when in the official games the only difference is it;s body colour.

JokerStyle Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Yes, some shinys in Reborn have been recoloured. It's your decision if you want it in your team, but if you do not like it keep him in the PC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odybld Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 I think it's a 1/100 shiny rate. And you can check all the shiny sprites in Reborn by going to the game's folder/Graphics/Battlers. Or you can let them surprize you upon meeting them in battle~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomahawk Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Yeah, shiny pokemon are more common in reborn and have different colourations which can be funny at times. Look at shiny Machamp. My favourite shiny is Gengar and Lucario. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytch_doctr Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Favorite shiny is definitely Unfezant. It's coloured as a Powerful Staraptor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Combat Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 It might be wise to hold onto it for now (as you said you would) as it might be useful for the second and third gym. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locomotion Posted October 1, 2015 Author Share Posted October 1, 2015 (edited) Damn... The shiny rate in reborn is really high '-'. Just found 1 shiny panda pokemon (my head pokemon database just go as far as 3th gen - max). This feels so weird . I mean, I have a GBA legit save with like 7 or 8 shinys and it took me FOREVER to get em(now trying my shiny aerodactyl. (Its 6 months now...) ... Now... SHINY TEAM GO !

Yeah, the shiny rate is 1% instead of like 0.0001% or something. Just use shiny pokemon you like- don't feel like you have to use every one you find.

TimTim Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 I have seen youtuber Haydunn annihilate things with Muk, so Grimer is definitely worth earning a spot on your team, best ability for it is Poison Touch, Stench is also pretty great, Sticky Hold might be useless in terms of in-game, and slap on black sludge and it is good to go~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
