Listen, not every sparkle means it's shiny. Sometimes it's just the game's way of messing with you. But true shinies have a distinct color and those unmistakable sparkles when they appear. Trust me, when you see one, you'll know.

Easy peasy! A shiny Pokemon will sparkle with stars around it when it pops up in the wild, so you can't miss it! Also, its color is different from the normal version, which is super cool. Just keep your eyes peeled for that special sparkle and you're golden!

The color difference is the biggest giveaway. Shiny Pokémon in Scarlet often have colors that are wildly different from their standard counterparts. Missed the sparkle? The color will tell you everything you need to know.

Shinies? Overrated. You'll spend hours hunting and probably not find one. Focus on enjoying the game instead!
