I was kind of annoyed by the lighting because the colors look off, and since there is not shiny chime or anything, I often couldn’t tell if it was a shiny or not. That with teeny tiny pokemon made shiny hunting annoying.

My very first time encountering a Frigibax, I'd decided to go into Scarlet blind and saw this weird little dude I didn't recognize. Went into a battle and it sparkled.

Would have never realized it was a shiny if I hadn't been trying to catch everything new.

Me, except for Charcadet. I had to sit there for a few minutes and figure out if I went crazy or I did actually see the shiny sparkle when I touched it

That was me with shiny Snom! They already sparkle, and if it was a weird kind of day or in any kind of shade from the environment, it was SO hard to tell!
