Is there way I can switch to the old looks of shiny pokemons?

PS: No offense to the current shiny pokemons. They're all awesome.

The only way I can think of doing it is by finding the "Battlers" folder and individually replacing the current shiny pics with your desired pics. Even then, I'm not sure if it'll work.

theoretically you could if you replace all the shiny sprites in the game with normal shiny sprites

however that would take a huge amount of work to get the sprites and gaming them all correctly

There are specific pokemons that i actually want the original shiny form of, Like Victreebell and Pangoro. I just google for the sprite?. What if it crashes the pokemon or the game?

Do you already have a shiny Victreebell and Pangoro?

Yes I do

Yeah, you can probably just save the shiny sprites/backsprites from Bulbapedia into your Graphics folder and have it be normal. It won't hurt your game- the worst that can happen is if for whatever reason the sprite displays incorrectly (like having a white/black background instead of transparent), in which case I would recommend finding some image editor that can make it transparent.

Hm. With me, I tried doing that, and the next time I sent my pokemon out, there was nothing there. I wouldn't risk it.

You can replace them if you rename the "new" sprites to the exact name they are in the Graphics > Battlers folder.

Anyone generous enough to do the renaming of the sprites and upload it here?

If you can spend a couple hours making new shinies. Don't worry, they're just recolours for the original.

You're going to struggle with Pangoro as it isn't in the normal essentials download.

I've put the original shinies of Victreebell here. Put these into your battlers folder (named 071s and 071sb)
