As a big Persona fan, I am rather surprised to see Persona 3 Reload being featured as a sponsor. I, unsurprisingly, had been looking forward to it, myself.
Kinda sad he skipped over the weather Trio Shiny Primal Kyogre is a nod to real-life orcas who are black and white, while shiny Primal Groudon could be something burnt or cooled off magma with cracks on them, since Groudon has magma running down its body, shiny Rayquaza and Mega Rayquaza are black like space, since there is not much life to be around in the vastness of space itself.
Pokemon Gen 1 - 5 shinnies are algorithmically color palettes, so majority of Pokemon shinnies have no meaning, only few Pokemon were chosen their shiny colors like Pikachu, Charizard, Gyarados and Sudowoodo because those Pokemon were more special or their shiny was part of game story. Its only from Gen 6 onwards that color palettes for the shiny Pokemon were hand picked
The algorithmic palette swap thing is unconfirmed, but highly likely for a lot of Pokémon. That being said, as you have said, the developers would then indeed change certain shinies, although they might do it for more than just "special" Pokémon. There's a decent Lockstin & Gnoggin video that explains how true each possibility is. His speculation is that EVERY palette-chosen colouration is run by the devs before they are approved and finalized, and a bunch might have been tweaked, while others were left as-is. The TLDR is, it's probable, but unconfirmed which ones were tweaked and which ones weren't.
To elaborate on the zacian/zamazenta thing, until the 19th century, the word 'boy' was reserved for servants as both genders of children were referred to as girls.
could you imagine if shiny guzzlord was basically just screaming as a giant bunch of stuff comes flying out of it's mouth and wondering where the heck it keeps coming from
Always thought Shiny Primarena was based on the Tale of Lorelei. It is said that her Singing makes ships crash and the people on it drown and it is stated that she brushes her golden (blonde) hair while singing.
What about dipplin and hydrapple? The wyrms inhabit a gold candy apple instead of a green apple, (and syrup bomb’s animation changes to reflect the gold syrup)
8:45 Honestly, it just looks to me like its colors were reversed. Instead of its body being grey, and its pearl and blush being pink, its body is pink and its blush and pearl are grey. And I think its shiny is befitting of having a pink body since its just a pig bouncing on its tail.
Shiny Lapras being a reference to Tessie from Earthbound will always be my headcannon. Creatures Inc. had many former employees of Ape Inc., the company that developed Earthbound. So amongst many other things Lapras' shiny being purple like Tessie could be intentional.
I wonder if Pokémons that's Shiny in wild will be bullied by normal Pokémon because they're jealous of the Shiny? ✨ Also Shiny Chesney always reminded of the eggs you get in the daycare. They're both yellow and green! 🥚
6:33 I based Shiny Dragonite on that and Puff the Magic Dragon. The only difference between them is the shade of green, because the Puff I grew up with was a pale green whereas Elliot is more of a medium green.
It’d be a cool idea for Pokémon Chronicles to come back and do an episode for Jigglypuff where that shiny trainer catches it in the end a nice closing for Jigglypuff
Anytime I see a shiny Guzzlord, I think of the episode from the anime where all they do is constantly scream. Must've been a fun time at the recording studio for the voice actor.
In the description: I'll give at least a fact about every shiny Pokemons. Also Dobbs: Did not even had like half of the 1025 Pokemons there is? There got to be at least a part 4 then.
paras isnt a lobster 😭😭😭 its a bug,,, paras is based on the fact that there is a fungus that takes over and gradually kills insects.... you're killing me, dude
I think it's funny how persona 3 reload is the sponsor because I remember how you made fun of the original persona 3 in a video years ago because of the *interesting* method the characters use to summon their personas.
Non Shiny and Shiny Meltan/Melmetal could be referring to Red/Pikachu & Blue/Eevee. Non Shiny has a RED wire and a Yellow hexnut. Shiny has a BLUE wire and a Brown hex nut. The main line games these Pokémon debuted in was Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu & Eevee, a remake/retelling of Pokemon Yellow, with all 3 games having a protagonist and rival with starters of a Yellow Pikachu or a Brown Eevee
I feel like the energy for the ponytails and weapons of armarouge and ceruledge should have been different colors, even if the armor stayed the same color. that's just my opinion, though.
Poor shiny solgaleo 😢 Has a cool inspiration like lunala and yet it somehow isn’t good. Edit: if shiny armarouge and ceruledge don’t change because it wouldn’t make sense for the armor to change as well, then explain why the protector turns yellow on shiny rhyperior and why a blue teapot turns pink on shiny polteageist.
It’s possible that Shiny Arcanine and Shiny Ninetales are also based off of Pokémon Gold & Silver’s colors, similar to Ho-Oh. The evidence comes from both Pokémon being version-exclusive Fire-Type counterparts of each other, with the Growlithe family being found in Gold and the Vulpix family being found in Silver. A similar occurrence is also seen in Pokémon Ruby & Sapphire with Duskull and Shuppet’s Shiny colors, however it’s worth noting that they’re not true version exclusives, moreso just having flipped encounter rates for the most part.
I'm pretty sure the name "Shiny Arcanine" actually comes from TieuLinh HOTA's username in heroes of might and magic 3 horn of the abbys. I mean they look pretty similar so I do think it was based off of that.
Wait a minute if the story about the orange seagull for cramorant was recent then why Is it that when cramorant was cramorant first released about 3 years ago even though this video was posted 50 mins ago and 3 years ago in this context is not recent So unless the artists for pokemon could see the future I don't think this is true (sorry dobbs)
There are news stories as early as 2016 that have this, on BBC for instance. Bulbapedia cites said news stories on Cramorant's page. Recent doesn't need to mean "within the last year or two."
Only 30 seconds in and I'm already exasperated. This isn't explaining, this is "speculating." No, shiny Charizard isn't black because its a reference to being "charred," its that color because it "looks cool." Shiny Charizard literally used to be purple before they gave it a new design. In fact, a lot of the earlier Shiny colorations were likely made by putting a color filter over the normal sprites and calling it a day. And I highly doubt the squirtle line is based on the koopa troopa... Last I checked, regular turtles stereotypically have green shells.💀
yeah, mr. mime sure is based off the tech that came out YEARS after it was created...hmmm... lol. not sure that's real...in the least... lol. also what does a mime have to do with 3d body mapping suits?
I thought the earlier gens had random shinies and that’s why I’m there was so many green shinies. I swear it wasn’t until X and Y that they were custom designed by artists.

Whoa, so awesome that P3R sponsored you for this vid! My brother and I have been looking forward to that game's release since it was first announced.
That’s so funny that they sponsored you considering what you said about the game like 6 years ago Lol
You missed a Lot of shinies like the Gen 3 Legendaries Groudon, Kyogre and Rayquaza
Shiny Palossand and Litten are some of ny favourite shinies.
As a big Persona fan, I am rather surprised to see Persona 3 Reload being featured as a sponsor. I, unsurprisingly, had been looking forward to it, myself.
i thought i was going to see a 10 hour video of explaining literally every shiny pokémon lol
I guess someone else has to do it
Me to
Ok.
Garchomp: shiny garchomp is based on regular garchomp… that’s it. That’s the fact. LMAO
I think that's Lockstin's job
Kinda sad he skipped over the weather Trio
Shiny Primal Kyogre is a nod to real-life orcas who are black and white, while shiny Primal Groudon could be something burnt or cooled off magma with cracks on them, since Groudon has magma running down its body, shiny Rayquaza and Mega Rayquaza are black like space, since there is not much life to be around in the vastness of space itself.
Shiny relicanth looks like a world map with a red dot marking the spot to hidden ancient treasure. Like how u need one to get the regis
And, more importantly, it shows were exactly the Coelacanth was first (re)discovered.
Pokemon Gen 1 - 5 shinnies are algorithmically color palettes, so majority of Pokemon shinnies have no meaning, only few Pokemon were chosen their shiny colors like Pikachu, Charizard, Gyarados and Sudowoodo because those Pokemon were more special or their shiny was part of game story. Its only from Gen 6 onwards that color palettes for the shiny Pokemon were hand picked
And a few legendaries and mythicals. Celebi and Ho-Oh for sure are not algorithm generated.
The algorithmic palette swap thing is unconfirmed, but highly likely for a lot of Pokémon.

And paras isn't a fucking lobster
The Gen 9 Shinies:
@@Johanimate While most Gen 9 shinnies are bad, they're hand picked color palettes and not algorithmically color palettes
To elaborate on the zacian/zamazenta thing, until the 19th century, the word 'boy' was reserved for servants as both genders of children were referred to as girls.
could you imagine if shiny guzzlord was basically just screaming as a giant bunch of stuff comes flying out of it's mouth and wondering where the heck it keeps coming from
This gets even funnier when you hear what it sounds like in the anime… literally just AHHHHHHH
4:20
You're showing normal Shiny Gengar when the one you're actually talking about is Shiny Mega Gengar.
Always thought Shiny Primarena was based on the Tale of Lorelei. It is said that her Singing makes ships crash and the people on it drown and it is stated that she brushes her golden (blonde) hair while singing.
On an unrelated note, that would explain why Lapras, a Pokémon used by someone named Lorelei, can learn singing related moves.
@@bdt2002gaming I have never thought about it like that, but that would make sense O_o
Primarina is not the Pop Star Pokémon. It's the Soloist Pokémon. Brionne is the Pop Star.
trying to correct a pokemon expert,what a fake fan
What about dipplin and hydrapple? The wyrms inhabit a gold candy apple instead of a green apple, (and syrup bomb’s animation changes to reflect the gold syrup)

4:13 THEIR BASED ON KIWI BIRDS?!?
Shiny Lapras being a reference to Tessie from Earthbound will always be my headcannon. Creatures Inc. had many former employees of Ape Inc., the company that developed Earthbound. So amongst many other things Lapras' shiny being purple like Tessie could be intentional.
You forgot that Shiny Pichu was also called Pikachu-colored Pichu during the Spiky-eared Pichu event in HGSS.
My first Pokemon plush was a shiny Jigglypuff. Candy green eyes and a different shade of pink. Not knowing it was shiny, I got rid of it 😅
Every Past Paradox is based on the shiny form of the Pokémon it resembles
what about scream tail
@@Mr_Yeet123 It's the original shiny + some extra smaller changes. shiny Scream tail is a different shade of pink just like shiny jigglypuff is.
Infernape: Infernape’s shiny make it look like a snow monkey that have pink faces and are found near hot springs🤔
Wich explains why Chimchar is in the Polar Biome.
3:23 I recently in the last few years got into persona after being a pokemon fan my whole life. I would highly recommend the series
So basically... Lunala's shiny doesn't only look epic but is also inspired by a blood moon?
I love it.
I wonder if Pokémons that's Shiny in wild will be bullied by normal Pokémon because they're jealous of the Shiny? ✨
Also Shiny Chesney always reminded of the eggs you get in the daycare. They're both yellow and green! 🥚

Aw yes my favorite Pokémon 5:24
Shiny Charizard is one of the best shiny to ever exist in pokemon
Kinda like it's shiny Y version
That Pyukumuku and Komala pronuctiation 😂😂😂
Fun video tho, some of these are legit
Source: trust me bro
Literally, like how many shines are green? They can't all be for special reasons 😂
Shiny Umbreon has to be my favorite shiny Pokemon of all time... 0:24
You learn something new every day. I've always said "kit-soon-aye" because I've never heard it anywhere.
Fun fact: shiny espeon is based on an alien!
(Very underrated shiny, fight me)
My idea for why a Shiny Hoopa is gold is because the Pokedex says it likes treasure, so they made the colors resemble that
Or Tyranitar could also be based off of Robozilla, the cyborg version of Godzilla.
It’d be a cool idea for Pokémon Chronicles to come back and do an episode for Jigglypuff where that shiny trainer catches it in the end a nice closing for Jigglypuff
ironic how skwovet and greedent's shinies are based on the og
Anytime I see a shiny Guzzlord, I think of the episode from the anime where all they do is constantly scream. Must've been a fun time at the recording studio for the voice actor.
I thought Iron Thorns was based on Mecha-Godzilla.
Me too
“Dobbs saying that dragonite’s shiny could be a stretch”
Literally stretching any other shiny origin
In the description: I'll give at least a fact about every shiny Pokemons.
Also Dobbs: Did not even had like half of the 1025 Pokemons there is? There got to be at least a part 4 then.
"Every Pokemon that has MEANING behind it"
paras isnt a lobster 😭😭😭 its a bug,,, paras is based on the fact that there is a fungus that takes over and gradually kills insects.... you're killing me, dude
I think it's funny how persona 3 reload is the sponsor because I remember how you made fun of the original persona 3 in a video years ago because of the *interesting* method the characters use to summon their personas.
17:42 that is just straight-up false. The props cannot be shiny. That grey Mecha-Tyranitar is an "upgraded model" from a sequel to the first movie.
I never thought about Alcremie being based on the Grey Stuff. That’s really clever if it’s actually the case
14:53 lol. it's true since in SWSH, we make curries.
I always saw Foongus and Amoongus as more of a Great ball color.
Why is Pikachu a Japanese school delinquent gang member with a pompadour?
A shiny Pikachu was seen like that in the Sun and Moon Anime
Literally everything up to gen 5 is wrong because it was a pallet swap and there was no inspiration for any of them
Non Shiny and Shiny Meltan/Melmetal could be referring to Red/Pikachu & Blue/Eevee.
Non Shiny has a RED wire and a Yellow hexnut. Shiny has a BLUE wire and a Brown hex nut.
The main line games these Pokémon debuted in was Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu & Eevee, a remake/retelling of Pokemon Yellow, with all 3 games having a protagonist and rival with starters of a Yellow Pikachu or a Brown Eevee
Gotta love the goemon's great adventure music that play in the background in some these videos
12:11 does anyone still remember the blue lobster meme
I feel like the energy for the ponytails and weapons of armarouge and ceruledge should have been different colors, even if the armor stayed the same color. that's just my opinion, though.
lot of "mights" and "maybes" being thrown around
Shiny origins have rarely if ever had official confirmation for their origins, so of course explanations are going to be educated speculation.
The shiny dragapult line is based on a blue navy angel jets and dragapult is based on the British Navy bout that holds the navy angel jets
You couldn't find any meaning for the rest?
Stay tuned
Most of them probably don’t have meaning Lol
Shiny colors were random until gen 5 though anything before had zero meaning it was a random color shift script.
Before g 6 shines were not decided by the game developers they were randomly generated
Shiny Relicanth is nice 😏
Kiwifruit comes in gold, red..loads of colours other than green btw.
True. Still, green is by far the most common conception of the fruit, just as red is for apples.
This makes my day when DOBBS uploads a new video
Poor shiny solgaleo 😢
Has a cool inspiration like lunala and yet it somehow isn’t good.
Edit: if shiny armarouge and ceruledge don’t change because it wouldn’t make sense for the armor to change as well, then explain why the protector turns yellow on shiny rhyperior and why a blue teapot turns pink on shiny polteageist.
Well I guess we all found out why there’s so many green shinies. No idea that color works so well with its Japanese meaning
It’s possible that Shiny Arcanine and Shiny Ninetales are also based off of Pokémon Gold & Silver’s colors, similar to Ho-Oh. The evidence comes from both Pokémon being version-exclusive Fire-Type counterparts of each other, with the Growlithe family being found in Gold and the Vulpix family being found in Silver.

7:34 Umbreon is the Moonlight Pokemon
Kakuna is crazy my dude
Where did you get this info? Several of them you said “probably” why they were colored that?
Don’t you think that some of these are a bit farfetch’d
Also paras is not a lobster, it’s a cicada
I thought Shiny Chansey was based on green eggs and ham
I love this video, this was pretty dope
Come on Shiny Iron Thorns is clearly Mecha Godzilla
Shiny Alcremie is actually based on burnt cream.
Dobbs imagine if you had the power to change their shinies?
13:07 He did said Pumu.
Ooo! 7mins! Glad I’m back to watching you regularly Dobbs! ☺️💜
Now i just realised how many shinies we've seen in the anime, 40 to be exact
Wait a minute if the story about the orange seagull for cramorant was recent then why Is it that when cramorant was cramorant first released about 3 years ago even though this video was posted 50 mins ago and 3 years ago in this context is not recent

Explain every special form Pokemon, like notch eared pichu
10:16 Shiny dialga based on the time gears???
Allow me to doubt this one
Shiny alola sandslash reminded me of sonic
I thought all shinies till gen 6 were random
You mean Gen 6.
@@9Tailsfan right thanks for the correction
Shiny nihilego based on Lillie even the anime shows
Dobbz play Persona 3 start with P4 if u can amazing games
I figure shiny Palafin is based on a corrupt paladin, villain, etc. That's why I named mine Oathbreaker, after the Oathbreaker Paladin from D&D
nice. many shiny pokemon with actual thought put into them.
Only 30 seconds in and I'm already exasperated. This isn't explaining, this is "speculating."

I just realized the two long things next to palafin's head are slightly yellow at the tip
Or iron thorns are based of mecha godzilla
This is the a good video for shiny catherin
This was my favorite of your videos in a while. Nicely done!
The funny part about shiny nihilego is in the anime theres one that is litterary named Lillie
Charredizard💀
OG shiny zard is best zard, also it was the direct opposite of dragonites where the body and wing colors are switched referencing them as rivals.
So your telling me everybody with blue eyes are related
I noticed paras and venomoth have very similar eyes. Maybe a normal paras with no mushrooms on it would evolve into venomoth
Good to know fartsticks is back! Howd it escape its trainer?
yeah, mr. mime sure is based off the tech that came out YEARS after it was created...hmmm... lol. not sure that's real...in the least... lol. also what does a mime have to do with 3d body mapping suits?
Dude it's kit-su-ne not kitsuun 😭😭
I thought shiny Iron Thorns was meant to be an even more obvious reference to MechaGodzilla.
Dobbs is the best 😭✊

Are you sure the red squirrels are extremely endangered? Cause, from what I know, they're not. I commonly see them in our woods and parks.

Foongus and amoongus are a great ball, not a master. They're blue, not purple
Yo wtf?! You an esper or what bro? I was legit thinking about shinies and shiz. Nice.
