What Pokemon are Shiny Locked in Pokemon Violet?

Actually caught a shiny Pikachu right off the bat, but yeah, the main legendaries and starters are locked. Makes sense to keep some exclusivity.

Just Koraidon/Miraidon and the starters till post-game. No shiny hunting for those, folks.

In Pokemon Violet, shiny locks prevent certain Pokemon from being found in their shiny form during gameplay. The list includes the starters (Sprigatito, Fuecoco, Quaxly) until you've beaten the game, the box legendary Miraidon, and the special event Pokemon like Koraidon in Scarlet, which you also can't catch shiny. It’s a way to make some moments more special and some shinies more rare!
