a little star added to shinies

Post by Ecco »

Would it be a nice idea to add a little red star (or something else) to shiny pokemon its so hard to recognize shinies without looking into the stats first..

if its asked before iam sorry i tried to find it but failed.

with regards Ecco

I like this idea
But there could be an option to turn it on/off and the default is on

This would either happen for everyone or not happen at all. There would not be an option applicable per user. :)
Reason being that adopt images are not generated on the fly, hence we can't show/hide the indicator for you while it would be visible for others. If this happens, it would be non intrusive, you don't have to worry. :)

That being said, I like this idea as well. So many times was I not sure whether it is a shiny or not.

I like the idea, but if it is a shiny promo? Maybe the star should be on one of the upper corners
Also why not a yellow star? ^_^

I didn't mean that users can turn it on/off
I meant like the items if someone wants it invisible they can

Why not treat the shiny icon like an equip-able item, except showing up on a different part of the sprite?

A user can opt to "un-equip" it in the stats page, but it's "equipped" by default.

Although personally, i'm not sure why someone wouldn't want a shiny icon.. But the idea is there.
Looking to trade pokemon or net yourself some easy CE credits? Then check out my Trade thread!

There are a lot of shinies which look very similar to their normal counterparts. Arm yourself with knowledge!
