Look for the sparkle effects when the Pokémon appears, and check for a star icon on the catch screen. Shinies also have alternate color schemes!

You'll know it's a shiny Pokémon because it sparkles like a disco ball on the catch screen!

It's obvious when a Pokémon is shiny; just look for the different color and the glittering stars.
