Let's take Garchomp, for example.
vs.
Wtf?
I guess if you look at the red in the middle, the shiny version's looks a little more orange, and the blue looks slightly darker, but there's no way anyone could tell which was which unless they had a side-by-side comparison.
I prefer shiny Pokemon that actually look like they're shiny.
Personally, if I ran into a shiny Gible, I'd feel jipped. Sure, the Pokemon's still shiny, but it looks almost exactly the same... so what's the point? The whole idea of having a shiny Pokemon is having a Pokemon that's a different color than the original...
vs.
See? Orange vs. Purple; it's easy to tell which is which here because shiny Magcargo is clearly NOT ALMOST EXACTLY THE SAME.
I don't understand why the designer of the rest of the shiny colorations couldn't make a visible difference between normal Garchomp and shiny Garchomp. Did he just get lazy? He could have made it any color in the world and he decided to make it so similar it hurts my eyes trying to differentiate the two.
Why?
