Yes, they are pretty well known throughout the series

they made a pretty big deal about the white metagross

>>25959360
Haha, people are going to think the OP's pic is a Kanto episode because of the Kanto starters...but shinies didn't exist in Gen 1.

The episode in the OP is an AG episode named, "Judgement Day" where a referee named Jimmy had the second stages of all 3 Kanto starters.

That wasn't even a shiny in the anime. Not in the same sense as the games, anyway. It was a normal-colored Magikarp whose skin pigmentation didn't change because it was evolved with radio signals that fucked up its evolution.

>>25959551
They use "irochigai", "Alternate-colored", the actual Japanese term for these Pokemon.

"Shiny" is an English fan term that the English games started using too for some retardedreason starting with gen 5.

They do. They refer to them as 'iro chigai' (色違い), meaning 'alternate colored', another way used to refer to shinies.

>>25959567
It's a shitposter term, anon. They think they're being edgy and triggering people or whatever their logic is.

>>25959596
No, the games never specify why it's colored the way it is. It's just assumed that there happened to be a shiny Magikarp in the lake that got hit with the evolution signals. The stuff about keeping its Magikarp coloration was made up by the anime.

Pro tip, using that term makes your post come across as bait or some other kind of shitpost rather than an attempt at asking a legitimate question.

Didnt Winona have a shiny Swellow?

>>25959657
bit of both

thats a ditto in the misty image

>>25959626
You're right that it is not flat out stated, but it is implied. A Gyarados keeping its coloration due to premature evolution is a better assumption than a shiny one just "happening" to be hit by the same shit.

>>25959665
Yeah, but you genuinely hurt your chances of getting people to actually answer your question when you word your post in a way that makes it look like you're probably not actually wondering about this.

What's the problem? It's the simplest term, and everybody was already using it.

>>25959714
The point is that it's a term almost exclusively used by shitposters baiting and makes your post look like it's probably a shitpost.
You can ask legit questions in lolspeak too, but the chances of people treating it as a normally written post is pretty low.

>>25959744
I'm not the OP.

>>25959744
Not really. It is used by a lot of people that dislikes the anime. Disliking it doesn't automatically make you a shitposter.

I get people coming into your general just to stir shit up being shitposters, but that's far from everyone using the term.

>>25959734
I don't know, I just get annoyed when random fan terms get tossed into official translations like that. It's not like they used "EVs" in the XY translation, so I don't get the logic behind it.

Many of the "shiny" Pokemon aren't shiny either, for that matter, and the name they were actually given never implied they were.

No, but it's basically the difference between "Does the anime acknowledge shinies?" and "Does that gay animu shit acknowledge shinies?"

It's the same question, and it's fucking 4chan, so no one's really expecting people to be too polite all the time, but the second question makes it look a lot more like you're someone that probably doesn't really give a shit about the answer.
I don't even care much about the anime myself, it's just an observation. If you want people to answer, it's in your best interest to not ask in a way that makes it seem like you don't actually care.

I'm not OP and I agree that his usage of ashime while showing interest in the show is weird and he is most likely either baiting or a newfag.

I was merely pointing out that not everyone using ashnime is a shitposter, just that they have negative views on it.

>>25959855
you arent wrong anon, there was an internet poll to determine which pokemon hoopa would pull through the portals.

What the fuck was the point of even asking that?

>>25959966
I know it's the official "translation" of irochigai as per gen 5, I'm just saying it was a pure fan term before that, and was referred to in the English games as "different-colored" or whatever.

>>25959880

They have sparkles. They shine, therefore they're shiny.

And the term "shining" was used in the TCG since Gen 2.

>>25960078
"Shining" was a (accurate) translation of "hikaru", that was a completely different thing.

>>25959360
are you stupid? you literally contradicted yourself

>>25959567
>>25959604
It's because the anime is known for being nothing but; Ash: the Anime. Nuff said.

>>25959855

bullshit

>>25959587
Pretty sure "shiny" itself was from the TCG.

>>25960306
>Makes a portal
>Opens one end in front of Dialga and Palkia

I mean they could have fucked off since Dialga could have rewound time for itself and Palkia could just make another portal for itself but them being transported isn't hard when making portals is space-hax in of itself.

>>25959855
Not made by but made for, you should realise you aren't the target audience here.

>>25959360
The anime does it better since the real shiny Butterfree is an absolute shit.

>>25960331
It was not, see >>25960126

The card game had some card called "Hikaru (pokemon name)", which was accurately translated as "Shining (pokemon name)".

Completely different from the "Irochigai" term from the games.

>>25960331
nah "Shinning" was from the TCG.

>>25960306
Hoopa had a shit ton of bullshit in that movie. I can kind of forgive it being able to trick them into the city, but being able to mind control them like nothing was far too much.

>>25959795
Dude, look.
Every since these Pokemon appeared in Gen 2, what happens when they appear onscreen? They emit a sparkle effect. Every Gen pass Gen 1 did this. And what do you call a thing that spakles? Shiny. That's why every 10 year old kid in the day called them Shiny Pokemon.
Just because "Japan doesn't say that" don't mean it's "some retardedreason", otherwise every fucking Pokemon name that isn't one to one the Japanese name is retarded by that example. As anon here >>25959734 said, everyone was calling it that in the States, so that just made it "canon" since.

>>25960331
neo revelation expansion had 'shining' pokemon in 2000. but 'shiny' wasnt used until BW games.

>>25960382
"Shining" is a completely different term, anon. It's been pointed out multiple times.

>>25960367
Every kid called EVs EVs too, but XY still ignored that and called them "base stats".

>>25959563
Imagine if every shiny in the games had some sort of lore justification instead of it being some weird albinism.

>>25960410
Nobody gave a shit about EVs when they were kids.

>>25960433
But they did give a shit about Eevees

>>25960433
It's the same thing, though. The translators didn't care about the "EV" fan name, so why did they care about the "shiny" fan name?

>>25960395
yes, thats exactly what i just said. they are different, thats why there are two different sets of quotations.

>>25960351
Japanese fans have always used 光る (shiny) and 色違い (alt color) pretty interchangeably, despite the later being the official term. Hell, "Shiny" came into use in the states specifically because of people getting GS info from Japanese fansites before the English release.

I'm OP and you're incorrect on both accounts, but only because you're assuming there's a reason to use the term over the word "anime".

It's more of a disregard. There isn't really. It is sort of a silly question. It doesn't matter.

Still wasn't a shiny. It was pink for the same reason Ash's got a scarf, so they could look different from every other Butterfree in that episode.
