Shiny Pokemon are rare colored Pokemon found in both TCG and the video games. The term "Shiny Pokemon" was originally a fan term and was first used in game in Pokemon Black and White. Shiny Pokemon's colors can change very little or a lot. For example, shiny Pichu is only a few shades darker then the original. A common Pokemon such as Caterpie might have a dramatic difference.
Black and White and Heartgold Soulsilver. (Bulbapedia)As you can see, a Shiny Pokemon may have a large or small difference to the original.
Unfortunately, you only have a 14% chance of getting a shiny Pokemon in a Localised game, and a 50% chance in a Japanese Game, so if you can read Japanese, and want Shiny Pokemon, get Japanese. (This applies to the odd egg in Crystal especially.)
The ways that are calculated tho get a Shiny Pokemon in the game are VERY complicated. So I will tell you some of the simpler ways.
In generation 2, shininess was determined by the IV's in a Pokemon. If a Pokemon's Speed, Defense, and Special IVs are 10, and its Attack IV is 2, 3, 6, 7, 10, 11, 14 or 15, it will be Shiny.
Now... the moment we've all been waiting for...
THAT'S RIGHT! Pokemon X and Y will be coming out in October! The starters are Chespin, Fennekin and Froakie! Cant Wait!
