Eh, I don't know if you guys are gonna be happy for me or really angry.
Ooh, Shiny Cloyster and Absol. Both some of the cooler shinies. =P
Congratulations on both.
Too bad Shellder didn't count for a "completed hunt", though, but eh.
This shiny is named after the Greek mythological creatures known as the Sirens. They would sing a song that would entrance sailors and make them go to the Sirens, wherein the Sirens would kill them :3
Hm... That shiny hunt was started a day after I posed my Shiny Spinda. =o
...Whatever that means. ...Nope, don't think it means anything. Nope, nothing.
...Anyway, congrats on it- cool name choice. Wouldn't particularly expect it on a Spinda though.
Sirens were usually depicted with bird traits- most often as Women with bird wings, making them look kinda like Angels.
...And on rare occurrences they were mermaids- rather rare though, but meh.
I'd probably expect the name on an Altaria or something (Flying-Type that learns Perish Song). =P
...That's not particularly a bad thing, though- not saying it's wrong or anything. =x
Though it seems like I am, looking back. Gaah, damn the lack of voicetones over the internet.

Also, GTS+ rule sig update:

Hate being the bearer of bad news, but it's a fairly important one for anyone doing view-sharing. >__< My sig feels so empty now.
Huh, that's a bit of a downer.
Doesn't specifically effect my own Signature, but I think it does affect a couple I am in.
'Dawww.
IN UNRELATED NEWS.
Bidofo just got new PC sprites! They all have swords though- not their individual weapons.
Still obviously MUCH better than they were before. ...Which was just Bidoof sprites, anyway.
Actually, I REALLY like the new ones. A lot. A small error though is that their shield seems to be transparent.
I guess their shield was white or something, and accidentally got transparent along with the rest of the blank space?
Personally hoping Remorage and Octilerage follow suit. Now, they're the only novelty without unique PC sprites.
On a similar subject, four other PC sprites got updated.
Zombidofo's PC sprite changed, to reflect the new Bidofo PC sprites. Basically, it now just has weapons.
Also, both Pokii forms have new PC sprites. They're mostly the same, in most respects.
They're just slightly neater and have a bit more saturation (more vibrant / less grayed).
The outlines are mostly unchanged though, so it's less noticeable than the others.
Cherrim's Sunshine Form gets it's sprite from HeartGold and SoulSilver, rather than using the overcast sprite.
NOTE THAT AT THE MOMENT, THESE CHANGES ARE NOT REFLECTED ON THE ICONS IMAGE.
This means that you will NOT see the new sprites when looking in your PC.
You'll also still see the old sprites on pages like the Users Online Page, the Pokedex, and the Signature "Party Images".
The reason for those is due to the lack of changes in the icons image. Those all source their sprites from that full sheet.
The only way to see the new ones at the moment is by looking at the "Public PC" on someone's user Profile.
Note: NOT on the PC tab, on the User Profile tab only. The PC tab also sources it from the Icon Sheet.
Comparison Image:
The changes in Pokii are a little more noticeable when you see them next to each other. Kinda.
(Note: I filled in the transparency error on the Bidofo PC sprite on this image, for the sake of clarity.)
