So has anyone else here managed to get a Shiny Alpha Pokémon and if so which one(‘s) did you get?

For me I managed to get a Shiny Alpha Tentacruel.

I trying to not only get all the Pokémon in LA and their forms but I’m also getting their Shiny and Alpha variants.

However I’m not going to go out of my way to get the Shiny Alpha variants of each Pokémon that can have them as that would take up a lot of space and time.

That’s not to say that I will skip over a Shiny Alpha variant if I come across it.

Clearly we're great!
I have Staraptor (caught as a Starly), Gallade (Ralts), Toxicroak, Misdreavus, Carnivine, Rapidash (the quest Ponyta), Gabite, Bronzor, Golduck, Glalie, Stunky, and my beloved Hippowdon that I caught as a Hippopotas and named Murph because Hippopotas is supposed to be Murph's favorite pokemon in Ranger even though he doesn't have one himself.

Murph saved my bacon in the postgame and no mistake. Tanky AND knows Crunch? There's a massive advantage against a certain superboss.



Hahaha and since I typed this up less than half an hour ago I found a shiny Shinx as well, just walkin' around.

My shiny Drifloon is now a Drifblim and it looks amazing whenever I let it out of its Pokéball. Still haven’t found any more but I’m hoping with the massive mass outbreak missions, I encounter at least one more Shiny.

I've caught three so far. The shiny Ponyta that you get in a mission, of course, as well as a shiny Starly and a shiny Burmy.

Provided that someone plays this game the way it was meant to be played, it's highly unlikely for them to not run into a shiny or two eventually. I'm nearing 60 shinies in this game myself, and I didn't really participate in that outbreak gold rush.

My main save only has the guaranteed Ponyta but I think the massive mass outbreaks will help me find some more. With all the Bidoof and Burmy I’ve caught, you’d think one would have been Shiny.

I caught a shiny Alpha Rotom in a Massive Mass Outbreak. I don't have the right Rotom item for the form I want though, and I'm not really keen on grinding out the money to buy it, so for now, it's a refrigerator.

I had to check my Shinies. Apparently, I have an Alpha Shiny Rhyhorn, which I have evolved all the way.

Yeah, didn't know (remember?) she was an Alpha until I checked. She's quite a big one.

First shiny I got outside of the guaranteed Ponyta was a Machop. Was actually heading for a Prinplup outbreak (part of the Cobalt Coastlands Massive Mass Outbreak request) when I heard the shiny tone from the Machop horde on the way there. Did not have the Shiny Charm but I had Machop's Dex entry at Level 10.

I've had 3

Shinx (Luxray looks amazing in this gold/black look)
Ponyta
Drifloon (That yellow thing with inverted yellow colors is ugly, i released it.)

What i really want are the Hisuian starters in Shiny forms. Decidueye looks much better in it's "Alola" colors and Samurott too.

I've got around 20 now, breaking from PLA but may play again every now and again for more shiny hunting. Ones caught since postgame I recall rn include two Paras, Rufflet, Beautifly, Mothim, Golduck, Sneasel, Geodude, Budew, two Murkrow (same outbreak!), Gliscor, Remoraid, Starly and Teddiursa. Would like to get some more Hisuian-only ones, and at least one Alpha...

Had a really good day today hunting those shinies. I got a total of 5 today. Got myself a Growlithe, Remoraid, Prinplup, Rufflet and Grotle. This would be my second shiny for Growlithe, Remoraid and Rufflet. Still on the hunt for Zorua even though I check it’s spawn point every time I’m in the icelands and go to all of its massive mass breakout points.
