Pokemon Scarlet and Violet starters

Trainers are still enjoying everything Pokemon Scarlet and Violet have to offer, and one player is flexing the results of their unique shiny-hunting project.

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet released its two DLCs alongside a celebrated epilogue, but it seems like players are still exploring Paldea, Kitakami, and the Blueberry Academy while they await for news on the future of the franchise.

The Teal Mask and The Indigo Disk added many new and returning Pokemon, giving trainers the chance to complete a broader Pokedex. What’s more, many players are shiny hunting for mons after other trainers shared many useful tricks to secure lots of shiny spawns.

That’s the case of Reddit user ‘PicklesAreGood2,’ who shared a very unique shiny haul with the community. “After 2 months of off and on hunting my most ambitious project is done,” stated the trainer, and shared a collection of all starters – and their evolutions- in shiny form.

The collection includes the Hisuian forms of Decidueye, Typhlosion, and Samurott to complete a very unique set in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.

Players gathered to congratulate OP for their achievement by saying things like “That’s sooooo awesome,” “Very impressive,” and “triple Cyndaquil line is wild. nicely done.” Others, on the other hand, asked OP for some advice, as they’re too on a shiny hunting journey and it can become quite frustrating.

However, seeing all those shiny starters in one carefully laid out grid made some fans argue which shiny starter is the best of them all. While most debated over Charizard and Greninja, another trainer chimed in and stated: “As cool as Charizard and Greninja’s shinys are, I never see anyone talk about how cool the Emboar shiny is. And I don’t even like Emboar.”
