They're not shiny locked at all. Shiny hunters, rejoice! Though, be warned, finding a shiny starter is like finding a needle in a haystack. It's possible, but you might be looking for a while.

Absolutely not, the starters aren’t shiny locked. But, good luck encountering one, you’ll need it!

Nope, the starters in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet aren't shiny locked! You can indeed encounter shiny versions of Sprigatito, Fuecoco, and Quaxly, but remember, the odds are pretty slim, so you better have patience or a lot of luck on your side!

Yes, they're not shiny locked but honestly, is it worth the effort? The shiny rates are so low, it's like expecting to win the lottery.

Actually, I managed to get a shiny Sprigatito after days of trying! No, they're not shiny locked. It requires patience and a bit of an obsession, but it's totally possible.
