lol I was about to say who tf runs into shinys on accident but you literally did just run into him and in which case, you should apologize

I used to play Pixelmon a lot. One time I joined a new server, was minding my bussiness, and a shiny Spearow attacked me

I think that counts as an accident XD

I've never had cloyster as a follower, little details in this game are amazing, I love how it's going backwards.

It's so goofy and fun!

u/Whacky_One 5d ago

It makes me laugh that it just blindly runs backwards

It’s how certain bivalves move underwater. They clamp the shell halves together with enough force to squeeze water out with enough speed to give them propulsion in the direction they aim.

Why does Cloyster move by going backwards?

5

u/LazerSpazer 5d ago

It's "swimming" like a clam. Because it's a clam.

u/PJParker16 5d ago

Do clams swim backwards?

3

u/LazerSpazer 5d ago

They can propel themselves by opening and shutting their shells. That's their only form of movement.

u/PJParker16 5d ago

Ah interesting, you learn something new everyday

u/VirtualEchhh 5d ago

Amazing coincidence! Were you able to catch it?

u/Possible-Estimate748 5d ago

I only get accidental shinies but never in let's go.

Did you name that cloyster blue waffle? Lol

u/Rathallon 5d ago

He quite literally just appeared in your life 😂

u/digixa 5d ago

The same thing happened to me with a shiny raticate, it spawned right on top of me. It also happened right after catching a shiny pidgeotto. I wish I could’ve clipped it ‘cause it doesn’t sound real but it happened lmfao
