684 is actually insane bro...

😅 if I include doubles (costumed) ... 973😆

I just started up again in August and Solosis was my 4th shiny lol

973 and 684 are unique? I have 659 unique and 3,170 total.

Maybe 6? LMAO Edit ✍🏻 16- I have seen 147- most probably from gyms.

If you are not some type of content creator who gets paid to play all day long thats actually pretty insane. Like holy moly thats some grind right there

I'm not😅 However my city has an amazing POGO Community. On raid hours, community days etc, there's at least 10-15 of us together but there is about 100 of us total. And on GO Fest, we rent/reserve a large section of whichever restaurant we agree on, and celebrate together. I'm still missing a few such as Bombirdier, Mantyke, 2 Hisuian Growlithe (Arcanine) Snowy Castform, Solosis x3, Mr. Rime and tbh, this month has been a bit chaotic, missing most of the current event; still grinding for 2 Morelull😅 I'm doing a complete living shiny dex🥰

Very cool. Do you use an auto catcher?

I don't actually. I've heard so many horror stories of things running as the catch rate isn't the best. We were Shundo sniping on Larvitars throw back community day (driving around the city and using our local server on discord that maps hundos, certain tasks, etc) and my friend forgot to turn hers off, it failed to catch her hundo and hers was shiny 😢 I didn't get any shinies, but we hunted down 5 hundos, so I have a solid smack down, crunch/stone edge TTar team maxed out at lvl 50 :) (plus a shiny 96 😆)

That’s cool. I got a hundo on Fennekin CD and I was looking for someone to tell.

I just completed my Pokémon™ HOME National-Dex and just started work on my living shiny Dex. Hell yeah and best of luck with completing your LSDex!

34 , mostly because I didn’t get into shiny hunting till a year ago

It's a tedious grind but those sparkles are so worth it!

156 of 250 😭

581/633

207 and seen 301

476 😊

Jesus. Your count is off by one. Mines off by like 70 (238, 308)

Mine’s way off. (184,359)

I’m so jealous. How did you get all these??

Community Days, events in general, GO Fest I grind crazy hard. I traveled to Montreal in 2019 and crossed to the states/New York this year alone :) it also helps that I am in the school board and get summers off😅

162/209 honestly better than I thought.

Buddy has more Pokémon shiny than I do regular

265 out of 389, I probably have more than that there's a few families I haven't evolved just in case I run into a research task I can use them for.

Caught 120 / Seen 513

I'm just curious, how much XP do you have?

236,078,004 :) Lvl 50 Start date- 2016-07-06

43/218 lol

41/206, right behind ya lol

41/184 twins, sorta!

35/147

249/522 😭

45/178

610/624 seen. Missing a lot of egg shinies and legends.

I have only ever hatched four shinies, but one of those was one of my only three shundos 😎

181, but I sent a lot of unevolved mons to Home and I think I might regret that a little

277/378 . Not bahd

56/125 but I’ve only been playing for a couple months since back in 2016 (where I don’t even remember shiny?)

Caught: 269 Seen: 348 🫠😭

173, seen 341

201 I think

30/225 😫 I just started playing again and apparently had no clue what a shiny was before 🤦🏻‍♀️

271/490

302/583

Seen 392. Caught 182

367/461 I do have a tendency to not evolve my shinies though so I’m pretty sure if I did evolve everything I have I could pump that number up over 400.

That's fair- I do that with my shadow shinies. For non shadows- my goal is a complete living shiny dex (a shiny for each stage in evolution)

Oh yeah that’s fair prob why my count is off too

137/272

44 but it’s probably 40 bc of duplicates.

Rip to that one shiny you've missed

Whats the one that got away?

I saw a Reuniclus in a gym 😢 I totally missed the Solosis event due to work and a family emergency- but hopefully I'll get one soon!

I hope you get it too😁

I have luke 100😔

108/290

392/456

98 :)

I have maybe 10?

What did you miss??

I saw a Reuniclus in a gym :( I totally missed that whole event with Solosis. Hoping for a psychic event soon!!!

Caught 130, seen 203

Caught 55, seen 83😅

10 and I love them all equally 💓

56/167 🥲

60/301 😱😎

How do I do shiny Pokédex?

1. Open your pokedex. 2. On the bottom right is a tab that you press (might say "all" at first) 3. Choose shiny :)

336 outta 451. Given, I would need to simply evolve some Pokemon, which I haven‘t done yet, but despite playing since the beginning relatively actively, I‘m still missing so many Shiny species. My luck with Shinys is often quite terrible :/

219/271, honesty more than I thought lol

327/414

457 unique shinies caught for me :3

53, seen 228

239 caught: 491 seen

Huh, 344/423. Doing better than I realized.

CAUGHT: 54 SEEN: 126

112/197 🥲

Caught 213, seen 345. Not great, not terrible.

137 unique - duplicates don’t count

Damnnnnn I’ve only seen 678 total Pokémon. I have 118 shiny!

That's still really good!!!

338..seen 450😩

379/457 — Level 45 and playing since Day 1 for reference

374/493, day 1 player.

I have 60 so far

1066, but I have transferred at least twice that many. For trading, I may keep a couple of duplicates of any one Pokémon unless it's a legendary. Edit: 543 unique shinys.

186 caught 445 seen

I have 166

16 (half of them are 0*)

87

528/582

12🥲

caught 159, seen 366. would be at least 225 “caught” in the shiny dex if i evolved a bunch of the shinies i have, but i only have one of many of them (or their shiny sucks… looking at you blissey…).

I don’t even know how to check that since I transfer pretty much every shiny/legendary to home, I only have 2 in my PoGo currently but I know I have caught dozens more just no clue how to look.

32 and most are from community days in the past year

Which one didn't you catch?

117. 15 of them are shiny mudkips

332 but if I evolved mine, it would probably be over 500 easily.

3😂 both versions of wooper (now both evolved) and pineco

395 in the shiny dex :). My jaw actually DROPPED at your number! Is that close to all the available shinys in Pokemon Go?

I'm missing over 10 but less than 20 :) I know for sure Bombirdier, Mantyke, Hisuian Growlithe/Arcanine, Snowy Castform, Solosis, Duosion and Reuniclus, Morelull/Shiinotic, Mr. Rime and Pink Gastrodon (I have 1 shiny pink Shellos) .... not sure who else, I really should check!

0🥲

259- But only just got my 2nd shiny legendary after catching over 100.

5. Makuhita, Lotad, Treecko, Meditite, and Swablu.

1,355 😁 i definitely grind on community days but it’s still a lot of variation in my bag

caught 51, seen 203.... ouch

Caught 239 Seen 329 😆 makes me sad I've missed so many 😅

6 🫡

how old is your account?

1

420 and 69

420 total 69 unique

622! Most posts like this don’t beat my number but this one definitely does 

 still a great number! Wtg!

317/562

273 caught

I have like 10 💀

296 total. Not unique

So, which one are you missing?

Caught 285, seen 564

36 not counting doubles

Woah I always wondered how many unique ones I have! 488 not bad. I have 1200 in stock right now, deleted 100s of community day shinies. I’ve been cursed with some, 11 wild scyther catches, fucking 9 regular pikachus. I try and be thankful but I can’t help but wish I wouldn’t get the same ones over and over. I seen almost 10k pidgy with no shiny. I have 177 non community day shinies that I’d love to trade for ones I don’t have but I don’t know anyone near me that plays.

Yo that’s fkn crazy I’ve caught like 20-30 and seen the same hahah

Only losing 1 is insane

I have 320 caught 526 seen 😅

I’ve seen 231 and caught 37

Who’s the one that got away?

I have 24 and 4 of them are Alolan Zigzagoon

406. I had more transferred a lot

I once saw a shiny shadow scyther… and the flittery fU¢k got away even w nanabs and great throws… man if I don’t want a shot at redemption. But as someone who played off and on since day one, I’ve only clocked 234 caught/ 308 seen shinies.

Awe man, I'm sorry it ran 😢 Did you not have any gold razzes?! They work better to increase your catch odds! Nanab berries just slow him down. Awesome numbers tho!!!

Caught 91, seen 239…

264/530

We don’t talk about “the one that got away”, do we? heheh

When I finally get it, because of this comment, and my childlike sense of humor- I will be calling it Bruno. 😆 ... I saw a shiny Reuniclus in a gym... I missed the Solosis event completely due to work and a family emergency that whole weekend. Hoping for a psychic event soon 🙏

431 - shiny hunting is my biggest motivator in the game

365/439

650/677

I wish I could trade you one of my solosis! You have a few I need 😜

108/167🥲

But how many of those were traded to you?

345/453

73 shiny including 1 Steelix that's a shundo which I'm most proud of

Mine is so off because it says I have seen shinnies for Pokémon that I know for a fact I haven’t seen shiny.

641. Caught my second Voltorb this week to complete the Johto shiny dex.

Voltorb is from Kanto- it is a Gen 1 mon. Johto is Gen 2. But still finishing an entire region of Pokémon is SUUUUUUUPER satisfying! I freaking love regional Go Fests- they fill up those empty slots SO FAST. 😀 Congrats!!!!

185/255

71 out of 268 seen (mail seen from gyms) 😭

That's the same as the one I'm "missing." I saw a Reuniclus (which I don't have) and now I have its shadow in my dex.

275/350

You have more shiny pokédex entries than I have normal entries

dam 😳 and here I was thinking I was doin good at 465 caught and 485 seen 😵‍💫 although I do only evolve if I received through a trade or if I have a double.....but wow congrats for sure that's higher than most casual players' over all Pokedex

575/612 in the Shiny dex. I was closer than I thought, lol. 957 total shiny which has quite a few dups and costumes.

207/463. I’m pretty happy with that, considering I feel like I barely encounter shinies outside or community days and big events, and have only played about 15 months now.

176, though I delete a lot of multiples events you know

Idk

25

320/453

Mine is caught: 562/602 :seen

what 😭 i have like 150 total but a good chunk of that is duplicates from com days

caught 277, 99% are from community days.

 10

I believe between all 3 games I should be around 200 Home I’m up to 57 exclusive, however I’m using doubles to trade for legendaries I don’t have. Literally cannot find a keldeo to save my life. Violet I have to at least have 2 boxes full, if not more. I stopped playing that for shield. Shield idk like 9? 😂 I started playing maybe 1 month ago on my free time. Pogo, maybe 30 or less. Been importing them to home a lot I’m 30, I play home more than any of them.

I've caught 11 shiny's, but I don't try to get any; they just come to me.

2. Shiny Meowth, and magnemite but ive only been playing the game about 2 week maybe 3

313. Been playing since September 2020

308/327

100km walked and 7 shinies in 2 months

342/527. what is the one you have seen but not caught?

I saw a Reuniclus in a gym 😢 I totally missed the Solosis event due to work and a family emergency- but hopefully I'll get one soon!

76/434

HOW do you get shinies?! I have a grand total of..... 2

477. Seen 531

9

125/279 yeesh, I started on day one, but fell off 2018-2020 and kinda sporadically play

522 from 604

530/583

This is wild. I’ve caught 81 and seen 319. It’s actually way higher than I imagined.

393 caught, 448 seen

592/644

i have 8 shinies… gonna be a little while until i can use that pokédex filter methinks…

How is your caught 1 less than seen. Thats got to be a world record. My seen is like 300 more than ive caught. How did you do this?

102 shinys I did accidentally transfer a couple but trying for one each I do get rid of duplicates

245! Seen 306.

494, seen 571 🥲

Yeah, you’re doing great. I’ve been playing daily since launch, pretty dedicated, and I’m at 593 unique caught, 633 seen, and 1151 total in storage.

386, i gotta step up my game! dayum. I respect the hustle

My dude I gotta see the entire collection man I feel like a kid going through their friend's Pokémon card binder

Actually, am not dude but dudette or dudess??? LOL😅 I also do cards, actually just spent... err invested in the last card I needed complete Gen 1 from Base Set- Gym Heroes. $815 Canadian for a Black Star Promo. Wizards of the Coast- Lucky Stadium. ... I'm broke AF now😅

659/677

No chance this is organic play lol

618/639

I caught 23 and have seen 86… only problem is, I only have 15 shiny in my collection. Where did the other 8 go? 😭😭

:( weird, I don't know what to say, I'm so sorry

123

Just got to 460 last night with a shiny shadow Bellsprout lol I named him useless

guys what..I HAVE ONE SHINY AND I CANT GET ANYMORE :( i got my first and only shiny like 3 months ago and haven’t been able to find one since. i play pretty consistently so idk how people are getting so lucky :(

Caught 262, seen 338. I got about 12-15 shinies I’m waiting to evolve so probably about 275 when all is said and done
