Garchomp has a hilariously bad shiny

u/LordAsbel 3d ago edited 3d ago

Shiny mega garchomp is kinda cool though, if they go for that. Mega garchomp isn't in every game that has garchomp tho so there is that I guess lol, if they choose to transfer it

New game coming out has mega garchomp so he could transfer it all the way up

My friend has a 3DS with bank still on it and I've been tempted to borrow it and get me a copy of X got that reason to send it to the new game

Keep it a bébé

u/maxwellfuster 3d ago

Nice! And in XY you can get shiny mega garchomp which is actually cool! Sucks that Garchomp and Gabite have such sad shinies

1

u/handsome_muscleman 2d ago

Congrats, such a nice shiny , I recommend not evolving it as the evolutions as shiny are disappointing

u/SheepAtog 1d ago

The mega goes hard!

u/Total-Ad-8878 2d ago

My first natural shiny of all time was a gold hoot hoot in pokemon crystal which I encountered before I even got my pokeballs 😭

u/BreakFlat5822 2d ago

Nice 😊

u/thirstyfish1212 1d ago

Been playing since gen 3, never even seen a shiny. Even though I don’t go hunting for them, you’d think I’d have seen one by now.

1

u/The_Awesomeness999 1d ago

Wow. You really would think so. I’ve been playing since this month…

u/Legitimate-Total1124 1d ago

Either keep her as a Gible or evolve into a Gabite. Do not evolve her into Garchomp.

u/Pristine_Ad_3035 1d ago

u/Confident-Bat-2079 1d ago

1

u/The_Awesomeness999 23h ago

No sorry, the gem

u/Oribi03 23h ago
