      I just started the video so I did not know that it was white but I can guarantee you right now it's a reference to the white serpent. White serpent lore is epic and I encourage everyone to go out and find every story about the white serpent that you can find because it's super ancient and super cool and there's about a million renditions of it some of which are directly opposed to each other. In fact there's some who speculate that the white serpent is the oldest deity known to mankind as a depiction of it or at least something that after thousands of years under the ground is a white serpent is one of the oldest artifacts that we've found of modern humans. And this thing was not small I believe there was more than one and they're huge and we know almost nothing about them, but they do weirdly line up with some of the white serpent lore.

      Oh that's a really good point. I always wondered why it was so meh and why they didn't do a white one since if you don't feed a flamingo enough tiny red crustaceans they turn white. Sun bleaching explains everything. I think though I'm going to have to go with the option of referring when the Chinese just look really cool versus being a reference. It would be nice if we could have both but I am always disappointed when a shiny is just like really meh.

    I think the Paradox form's colours can have an extra meaning too. The past ones mostly use the same shiny colorations as their previous pokemons. Because, after all, you cannot change the past. But the future shinies are all without paint (even Miraidon), because the future is yet to be painted, it's in our hands to paint it.

  • @bluekirby_64
    @bluekirby_64 หลายเดือนก่อน +90

    The shiny future Paradoxes being unpainted versions also makes sense with the rarity, since factory rejects of mass-produced things tend to be much rarer to find.
    Additionally, the reason only the metal parts change while the neon "energy" stays the same might be because, if the latter is what keeps them running, a difference in its color may indicate a malfunction, thus not letting them battle properly, which can't happen ingame as a shiny Pokemon is functionally the same as a regular one.

    Okay, I actually have a bit of a tinfoil hat theory in regards to Koraidon's shiny.
    Remember way back when Junichi Masuda went on a trip to Portugal and not only said that he loved the restaurant Nando's but that the rooster they use for their logo, The Rooster of Barcelos, would be a good concept for a pokémon? The very same bird whose primary colours are black with white, red and yellow as accent colours?
    I theorise this to be the true origin, at least partially, for Koraidon's shiny, maybe not even that, it could have inspired Koraidon outright, it just lines up so well. That concept for a rooster pokémon IS Koraidon. It even has many rooster-esque features like a massive feathery head crest, huge tail feathers and even technically wings (that sprout from its head of coarse).
    You heard it here first. Koraidon is part rooster. You're welcome.

Sure there are a couple like Black Widow, Batman, and Black Panther, but considering black is a color not usually associated with heroism and justice, it’s makes sense that shiny Palafin’s hero form would be black.

    Why The Golden Gate Bridge is called that, and why it's Red:
    The reason why the Golden Gate bridge is red is because it was purposely painted red in the 1930s. Bethlehem Steel at its foundries in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, had the steel coated with a red lead primer to increase safety and visibility of the structure.
    The name “golden” came from its yellowish-orange color when seen from a distance but this has faded over the years. Basically from a far off distance, the bridge had a Golden color but it slowly turned more red the closer you got to it.

Whimsicott's Pokedex's entry says it travels in little tornados, and due to it's more tan skin and also trickster nature leads me to believe it's based on Saci Pereré, also a brazilian folklore legend. And Hitmontop's japanese name is Capoeira, which is a brazilian martial art.

    3:16 I'd definitely describe Nymble and Lokix as a more green color. It's mostly a Kamen Rider reference rather than just Tokusatsu:
    » The normal coloration of the line is blue/black, common colors for describing evil characters or enemies. Thus, the shiny colors being green is a reference to Kamen Rider 1, Ichigo, as he is a human-turned-cyborg using evil technology who now fights against evil. The rare rebellious soldier to reflect the rare nature of shiny Pokémon (more likely).
    » The confusion some have with Nymble and Lokix's shiny coloration being yellow or green could be a reference to Kamen Rider Zero-One, the first Rider of the Reiwa era, in which fans and official sources alike sometimes categorize the character with a green suit rather than their actual highlighter-yellow colors (less likely).

    I am indeed very biased, but I personally think that the Sprigatito line's shiny forms are underrated and absolutely great despite them being so subtle. The pink to purple is a very nice alternative that compliments the more cold tones of the green added. It may not be the greatest starter shiny in some eyes, but I think it's freaking awesome as far as subtle color changes go.

    - Fidough and Dachsbun’s shiny I think more has to do with their dough-ish skin going from a generic white bread dough to a wheat bread dough.

      White bread is made of wheat, but not whole wheat. When milling wheat for white bread they remove 28% of the kernel making the flour white.
      Fidough is probably actually brown because there's been added dark malt extract or cocoa to the dough, seeing as it doesn't get a rougher texture, which a whole grain bread would have :]

    Personally I think the Pawmot line turning pink isn’t just for the cute factor. It’s a fighting type and you can’t look at the regular colors without thinking of Dragon Ball and more specifically how it looks like a super saiyan. With that in mind, the pinkness of the shiny could be a more specific reference to Dragon Ball and Goku’s first major power-up technique, the Kaioken. That technique multiplies the user’s power and had a distinct red aura that makes those using the Kaioken Technique appear to be washed out in reddish pink.
