One of the most demanding tasks in gaming Pokemon it’s the hunt for shinies, as only dedicated players are willing to invest tens of hours to come across one of these extremely rare versions. If you are one of them, you will love it Pokemon Scarlet & Violetas they will include a feature that will make it easier to find them.
Media from all over the world, including LEVEL UP, have already had the opportunity to test Pokemon Scarlet & Violet.
The chance of encountering shinies is so low (nearly 1 in 4,000) that it was very unlikely for a medium to run into these creatures in such a short amount of play time that the test offered. However, there was one who was lucky enough to make a very interesting find.

It will be easier to find shiny Pokémon in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet
We say this because the expert in Pokemon and Serebii manager John Merrick was able to have an encounter with a shiny Pokémon, specifically Skiddo, during his test run in Paldea.
What is interesting is that Merrick confirmed that the shinies will reveal their unique appearance in the first place on the map. This means that there will be no need for the player to engage in combat with it for it to be revealed if the creature is shiny or not.
In case you missed it: Legendary Pokémon are appearing in raids of Pokémon Sword & Shieldbut it might disappoint fans.
This feature was implemented in the main series with Pokémon Let’s Go!, Pikachu & Let’s Go, Eevee! and, although he was absent in Pokémon Sword & Shieldcame back with Pokémon Legends: Arceus. That said, it looks like Game Freak could make her a recurring part of the franchise.
Therefore, it will be easier to identify if a species is shiny or not and will save the player time. In addition, we have no doubt that there will be many players who come across shiny creatures without looking for them and will be able to catch them, something that they would have otherwise missed.
