Spotting a shiny Pokemon in Violet is pretty cool but can be tricky! The easiest way to tell is by the sparkles that appear around the Pokemon when it enters battle. Also, shiny Pokemon often have a different color scheme than their regular counterparts, so if a Pokemon looks unusual in terms of color, you might have found a shiny!

Bright sparkles, my friend! When that Pokemon pops up and you see sparkles like it's coming out of a glitter cannon, congrats, you've got a shiny!

I caught my first shiny in Violet because it was pink instead of its usual color. So yeah, weird colors and sparkles are your biggest clues.

Honestly, just look for the sparkles. If there's no sparkle, it's not shiny. Simple as that.
