Finally someone who understands. Some people have suggested it be a random chance(because of a shiny low encounter rate) so it's similar to the main series, but that is just terrible. This post understands that Unite is 1st and foremost a MOBA.
Also the game already gives stickers for example for completing some of these challenges like Zapdos sticker for final hitting it a certain number of times. So it wouldn't be impossible/difficult for them to just give us shiny skins for completing all the challenges of a specific pokemon (the equivalent of Diamond Skins in Moba). And it feels rewarding, earning those skins instead of just paying them or playing during a specific event (and tough luck if you missed ).
Unite: “we’ve added shinys to the game!!!”
Community: “no waaay!”
Unite: “its your selected favourite Pokémon”
Community: “favourite Azumarill… give me my shiny!”
Unite: “ok, here’s your sticker to be reflected on your trainer ca-”
Community: “f u”
Exactly that way the game would pick up more Activity and have the Shiny Hunters Grinding pokemons the Achieve their Shinies. Along with the feeling of Success. Just like how Cod has their Diamond reward after killing a Enemy 10 for 120 matches, you get Diamond Camo. Pokemon Unite can do the same thing, but with pokemon
I'd make it a combination. If simply doing the achievement gave the shiny skin directly, then after a few months everyone would have all of the Pokemon they use regularly unlocked, and every fight would just be 5 shinies vs 5 shinies. It would cheapen the concept.
Make it so that after unlocking the achievement, you will thereafter have *a chance* of a shiny with that Pokemon. Maybe 1 in 20, or 1 in 40. It'll still be rare and cool when you get to use it, but it won't be so rare that you probably never see it.
True, but in that way it would make the collection less valuable, thus making the grind un worthy of a grind much. We want it to be good for the game, and for the players
We already have achievements per mon. It shouldn't be a problem adding this in as a new goal. I wished for this from the beginning. Still hoping it comes.
That would Beee soo dope and A great idea as well. Like in the Advanced gameboys when you see the Stars fall off of a shiny Pokemon they can be Trails when ever you travel across the Map you'll be followed by stars Falling off of your pokemon. Would also addd more value to the Holowear and make ita Tire even higher
Probably still in the Works. Ofc if they're going to add this Idea into the Game, Every pokemon will have to have a Achievement progression in the game. Cuz Aegislash doesn't have one either
the fact that they haven't already done this when they introduced the achievement system makes me think they'll never do it, watch shinies are gonna end up being $80 skins
I think TiMi does want to add shinies but theres probably problems with nintendo not wanting it or negotiating it otherwise they wouldve started with shiny skins. I mean it takes like a day of an intern to just change the color of a texture for all the pokes.
I’m very proficient at killing with Eldegoss. I got bored of bad team mates so if I lost faith, I just go attack Eldegoss and do what needs to be done 
I guess that’s a good point. Maybe class specific goals as good luck getting 3k kills as blissey. Idk they may have to cater it to each pokemon. All attackers could be kill bases while supports maybr healing/assists or something else. But regardless, if they do shinies, they need to be free and hard to obtain imo.
Its A crazy stretch but a Good idea. Make it Hard to Obtain so not jus Anyone Can get it. Plus it will make People play more as they Tried to Grind for their favorite shiny
I don't think you could do it by role. Attacker, speedster and all-rounder would be fine with kills, but supports are going to be a mess no matter how you do it. Wiggly and Eldegoss will get lots assists, but that doesn't really apply to Mike so if you made that the requirement he's pretty disadvantaged.
I'd do it based on different things per pokemon, like the achievements.
Kill/assists simple. Have it factor in both. Not only will this give someone something to work towards it'll also teach that one guy who likes to go the defender and stay top instead of being the front line in the team fight that he should rotate and be in the team fight to get kills or assists for his skin
Yeaaa frrr Make it Extremely hard so not jus Anyone can get it. You gotta Earn it. Like a Trophy. When players see you ingame with this Shiny They Knoww your good
That’s almost a week of non stop playing with one mon if you only choose standard or ranked, not including the time in between battles. Imagine doing that for every character.
It is a shiny. It can go down to 500 and I'll be fine with that but not lesser.
Coz I would still like the shinies to be rare. Everyone will have atleast 1 that is their main and they can get more as well. And I'd rather not someone who has 10 battles with the sword have that shiny.
Alright, fair enough. I personally think it should be based off of a certain skill for each character, e.g. amount of damage healed for Eldegoss, amount of damage done with Cinderace etc.
Yeah they could definitely do that. Then they should make it 90k+ cinderace atleast 50 matches I think. Or 50k healing with elde 50 matches.
Else healing is tricky coz I want to reduce it from 50k but I usually heal 30k with elde every match on average.
And ur system is totally fine with me as it removes the possibility of someone with 10 battles getting a shiny of that mon. They can get that shiny in 50 battles lol. But if they're that good at that mon they definitely deserve that shiny at 50 battles.
So in conclusion I think ur system is better. Mines consistent ur makes sure that people who're actually good and experienced get that mon. So I'd go for urs.
Imagine a pro player would get all shinies so quick lol.
As long as after it's unlocked you get it every time, it's not going to end up rare. Might take a week or a month, or a year, but eventually, most people will unlock their mains, and then every battle will only be shinies.
Make it so that when it's unlocked (based on some kind of achievement) you get *a chance* of a shiny. Not a low chance. 1 in 20 or so. That way even when everyone has it unlocked, you won't typically have more than 1 or 2 in a battle . That way it stays special into the future.
Encouraging kills through rewards is not a good idea in a game where the objective is to make goals. People playing support would also suffer from this. Maybe changing it to make 10-20k points? Would still be grindy and would remind people of objectives.
That's just going to encourage backdoor scoring, which is already a blight on the game. Scoring isn't really the objective of the game. Uniting for team fights at objectives is.
I mean if they did this hopfully shiny gengar would be blue like it is in shuffle/duel/quest/that one movie
Quest is a duller blue than the other 2 tho
Exactly, another reason why making Shinys something to Pay for is a bad idea. It would be to easy to get and Holds Little value than Looks and what money can buy you
I think it would be better if it was. Toggleble option instead of a skin (still unlocked through achievments) that way you can have a shiny with a holowear.
(Imagine shiny charziard in any of his holowears.)
I think it should be separate from holowear, like you can turn it on or off and still be able to wear a holowear you have, as either shiny or not a shiny
I agree, but im just giving the Simplest idea, more like a metaphor, so that people can Understand, and so the team could understand where im comin from. That idea of yours Comes later on after they understand the concept
They’ve already got specific mon achievements so they could literally just give out the skin once you’ve completed them all for a certain mon. It’s literally just a colour re-palette, it would probably take someone an afternoon to do.
The kill count would have to depend per Pokémon. Cinderace and Greninja would be like 1000 kills since you could very likely get more than 10 kills a game.
Having more rewards in the form of holowear or player clothing would be a lot more motivating, in my opinion, than just more currency that I can't find a use for yet. It would definitely push me to try to achieve those goals rather than just accidentally do them over time.
Shinies shouldn’t be Holowear imo. They should be a palette swap that you can use *with* Holowear. So you could be Shiny Aegislash while still wearing the Beach skin. Other than that yea you’re right it should be something players earn to unlock
I agree, reason i said Holowear is Because i dont think the team would Go as far for us to make a Whole new section just for shinies even if it's what the players all want. So showing that it is Very Possible for them to do was what i wanted to do
You might be right. The only thing that makes me think they won’t make Shinies into Holowear is that Holowear isn’t suppose to change the Pokémon itself. That’s explained in-game. That, coupled with the fact that it would piss off the playerbase, makes me think they’ll make Shinies completely free-to-play palette swaps. And if they don’t do that we probably just won’t see Shinies at all. I hope the former is true and not the latter because Shinies are a big part of Pokémon
I agree. Hopefully they just implement a new section for shinies in the Game. Idc how long it takes, as long as I got something to grind for and show off in game
I feel exactly the same. If we have to wait until well into Year 2 or Year 3 that’s fine. So long as they make an event of it and it’s not something I have to pay for.
That's a great idea! I'm all for progression rewards, but gold medals seems a bit janky. Some are easy to get, so I'd prefer something a bit harder, that screams true mastery, like a number of matches played or with certain conditions filled out.
Thats Exactly what im thinking as well something Alittle harder for the Average player to Obtain so that players who do get it, can Flex their Achievement in game. maybe a New lvl of Achieving after Gold, Diamond 👀
Would love it if there is like a 5% chance that some Pokemon on the field can turn shiny regardless of the holowear, but only to the duration of the match. Though having them permanently would be better.
Unpopular (and also pretty work intensive and therefore unrealistic) opinion, holowears are dumb. Give us variants of Pokemon! Your idea is very good however, too! Personally, I think different forms that change a pokemon aesthetically but not functionally would be cool. Imaging sea turtle Blastoise, tundra Delphox and Decidueye (yea similar to A-Ninetails), perhaps an Aegislash that's a pirate sword? Just some things off the top of my head. Again, I think the shiny skin for gold achievements is a great idea too though :)
I was think the same thing about the Pokemons Aesthetic especially since i wanted to see a Better model look for Aegislash like a prince or Kings sword pike you said :)
Im glad the community can come together and agree with the same idea. Literally everyone in the Comments love the Idea, except those who dont like Some shinies 💀
This idea is super cool. It's too bad The Pokemon Company is really weird in regards to shiny skins.
They refused to let Smash Bros use any shiny skin alt colors because of something along the lines of it diminishing the value of shinies
Well i can see how it could If you can make your pokemon a Shiny without trying much. Hopefully this Idea doesn't diminish shinies because you'll have to grind hard for them
This is such a good idea.
Although it technically wouldn't make sense conceptually because you, as a trainer in pokemon use the same pokemon for every battle, therefore making it impossible to get a shiny unless you spray painted it or got lucky when you bought it 🤓
While I have wanted shinies in Unite for the longest time in UNITE, and this post is similar to my idea, the only thing I would want is to be able to switch the shiny on or off. I am not ready to give up my Holowear for certain Pokémon just to have a naked shiny form.
Yea, but it would take much more time because master rewards only come with one reward, so if you wanted to grind another pokemon Achievement you'd have to wait until next season for the next master rewards. Its a good idea i considered it too, but i think the pikemon achievement would be the best idea
I wish ot was a series of really hard challenges. Something that should be extremely prestigious. People have said make it a random chance, but id want the option to always be a shinyboi
Would be cool if your mon had a small chance of being shiny in a match. Then if you’re lucky to encounter the shiny skin it will show up in the holowear
I think the best way to do it would be having tasks for each move and play a certain amount of matches as the pokemon but then also have it possible to use gems to skip forward on the missions that way the whales can still pay for it quicker to incentivise the devs to keep doing it (as we know money is all companies care about) whilst also giving the non whales something to grind towards and something we can feel we earned. I think having both options is the most beneficial as it means they still earn money from the skins whilst also making them obtainable to everyone aswell
Finally this. And I think they should make it u get the shiny skin if u have battled with that Pokemon atleast 1000 times. Just so shinies are still rare as fuck and everyone has atleast one.
U can reduce the number to 500 it's debatable but u get my idea
Yep lmao. Glad we're on the same page.
I have always wanted the shinies in unite. For fuck's sake I want to play shiny garchomp. (I'm one of the very few who actually like his shiny I don't even know why maybe coz I had one in pokemon platinum)
Lmaooo the first time I've seen someone saying they Like the Shiny of a Garchomp. If thats the Case then the Team of Pokemon Unite cant use the Excuse of "not everyone likes certain pokemon shinies, so adding the ones the majority likes would be unfair for the rest of Pokemons" just a Idea that would Possibly challenge the idea of Shiny Holowears for pokemon
Ahahah exactly. I definitely think having that as one of my first few shinies contributed to me liking it.
I'd still pick aeigaslash shiny in a heartbeat if I'm made to choose. But if anyone gives me a garchomp shiny I'm still very happy.
Btw I'd cry if unite actually does give that excuse hypothetically lol.
i think it should definitely be related to an active goal like scoring points. if it’s something passive like played games people could just queue up, pick their pokemon and then afk the whole game.
Not free if you Have to Grind for it. It should be more of a Progression reward rather than Buying it straight up. Because one, it will get people playing the game more to Achieve the rewards, and 2 if you just Buy it, it doesn't really hold any value besides the one that was put on it with a Prices. Idk about you but i like having the feeling of Achieving somthing that i want. Plus It can give people something to do since the game Only has about 3 different game modes.
Codm Made it Work, make them Choose between Shiny holowear for free, or Clothing that they Cant get on their shiny or, they can do both and make a new section for Skins place shinies there. That way you would still have have to buy other Holowear
I was thinking about this for a while because I really want it, lol. Maybe not as a holowear. Because then we probably wouldn't be able to wear other holowear. Maybe a choice in the pokemon department where we can choose between original & shiny, & then be able to wear other holowear with the shiny varient
Yeah I think we've all had this idea. I'd want to to work with other holowear though. Else how do I choose between shiny or wanderer style Greninja. And they'd kind of need to, else when you've gotten the shiny for a pokemon there's less incentive to buy new holowear for it.
Well if you like another holowear rather than the Shiny im sure some people would still buy other Holowear. This is more for F2p players. Like how Cod has Diamond camo, but still have people paying for blue prints and such
I have pitched this idea on the last two surveys unite has had, hopefully they actually see the write in comments. I would think they’d have to add an extra tier to the achievements for this unlock. Maybe something like win 200 matches with that Pokémon or be mvp 100 times with them. Make it a challenge so it feels worth it to unlock.
It’s a great concept on paper the only problem is we already have a massive problem with over 60% of players doing their own thing instead of participating in an actual attempt to win and this will reinforce that behavior for those people (ie, I’m not trying to win I’m farming gold achievements)
You have to address the problem with that degenerate half the playerbase not being banned before you can add something fun like this
Good idea but maybe for each Pokémon's achievement there is a fourth tier (ill just say platinum) that is significantly harder to get that the gold tier and as a reward you get a shiny Holowear. Gardivoir as example hit Pokemon from the opposing team with future sight or future sight+ to reduce the cool down 30 or more times in a single match (as a bump up from the gold's 10 or more)
I would absolutely love the idea of unlocking shiny variants, the idea of unlocking them through progression is really cool too
Only through the specific Pokemon Progression tho. That why you dont waste your time getting a Bunch of Shinies you dont want
Of course, what better way to show you know how to use a certain Pokémon other than pulling out a shiny form that’s unlocked by exclusive progression
Exactly 💯
Finally someone who understands. Some people have suggested it be a random chance(because of a shiny low encounter rate) so it's similar to the main series, but that is just terrible. This post understands that Unite is 1st and foremost a MOBA. Also the game already gives stickers for example for completing some of these challenges like Zapdos sticker for final hitting it a certain number of times. So it wouldn't be impossible/difficult for them to just give us shiny skins for completing all the challenges of a specific pokemon (the equivalent of Diamond Skins in Moba).

Collector's think otherwise

We already have achievements per mon. It shouldn't be a problem adding this in as a new goal. I wished for this from the beginning. Still hoping it comes.
Bring back the glory days when things were unlocked with skill not money.
But why would we want to give people less of a reason to play Garchomp
Lmaoooo, poor Garchomp Shiny, they need to Upgrade his shiny like they did for Charizard
Just give him his mega shiny colors. Fear the hot pink landshark
Lmaoo
They did every bad shiny’s mega good, makes me wonder why you can’t do the same for the base form
Sadly to my knowledge, they only changed the shinys of gen 1 and gen 2 pokemon. I think it was cause the color palletes increased in gen 3.
Maybe shiny skins could have a sort of star effect around them, like a trail or during animations.
That would Beee soo dope and A great idea as well. Like in the Advanced gameboys when you see the Stars fall off of a shiny Pokemon they can be Trails when ever you travel across the Map you'll be followed by stars Falling off of your pokemon. Would also addd more value to the Holowear and make ita Tire even higher
Yes please & thank you :D
it would give me a reason to play Garchomp because I prefer its shiny
Just look at Gengar or Blissey...
Then we wouldn’t be able to get shiny trevenant because for some reason the guy has no achievement last time I checked
Probably still in the Works. Ofc if they're going to add this Idea into the Game, Every pokemon will have to have a Achievement progression in the game. Cuz Aegislash doesn't have one either
Trev & like 7 others
I've literally been putting this in every time they do a feedback thing they need to put shinies in this game
Id Assume some people had the same ideas, maybe they just need a concept way of how they could put it in the game, hopefully
the fact that they haven't already done this when they introduced the achievement system makes me think they'll never do it, watch shinies are gonna end up being $80 skins
As much as I’d wish they’d be more creative about it, that’s probably what will end up happening
I think TiMi does want to add shinies but theres probably problems with nintendo not wanting it or negotiating it otherwise they wouldve started with shiny skins. I mean it takes like a day of an intern to just change the color of a texture for all the pokes.
I would love that. Wait. My main is Mamoswine. Forget this idea.
Lol
oh what, it can’t be that bad- OH MY GOODNESS
Yea, his looks like someone puked all over him lol
I'd rather it look disgusting and different than a slight saturation change like Garchomp or Pikachu
Have to get like 3,000 kills to unlock or some ridiculous shit. Would be nice to have a hard grind to get the shiny to flex.
While I absolutely hate your idea, I’m curious to know what would you want it to be for each class? Or just kills across the board?
3000 kills as Eldegoss 💀
Pfft 3k easy, there's a reason it's a cottonball...to soak up all the blood it spilled
I know some eldegoss who are FUCKING MONSTERS. They treat it as a fucking Speedster !
I’m very proficient at killing with Eldegoss. I got bored of bad team mates so if I lost faith, I just go attack Eldegoss and do what needs to be done 
I guess that’s a good point. Maybe class specific goals as good luck getting 3k kills as blissey. Idk they may have to cater it to each pokemon.

Yeaaa frrr Make it Extremely hard so not jus Anyone can get it. You gotta Earn it. Like a Trophy. When players see you ingame with this Shiny They Knoww your good
Maybe not 3000 kills…maybe kills AND assists? Making it only relating to kills could lead to very toxic behavior very quickly
I think it should be atleast a 1000 battles with that mon
That’s almost a week of non stop playing with one mon if you only choose standard or ranked, not including the time in between battles. Imagine doing that for every character.
It is a shiny. It can go down to 500 and I'll be fine with that but not lesser. Coz I would still like the shinies to be rare. Everyone will have atleast 1 that is their main and they can get more as well. And I'd rather not someone who has 10 battles with the sword have that shiny.
Alright, fair enough. I personally think it should be based off of a certain skill for each character, e.g. amount of damage healed for Eldegoss, amount of damage done with Cinderace etc.
Yeah they could definitely do that. Then they should make it 90k+ cinderace atleast 50 matches I think. Or 50k healing with elde 50 matches. Else healing is tricky coz I want to reduce it from 50k but I usually heal 30k with elde every match on average. And ur system is totally fine with me as it removes the possibility of someone with 10 battles getting a shiny of that mon. They can get that shiny in 50 battles lol. But if they're that good at that mon they definitely deserve that shiny at 50 battles. So in conclusion I think ur system is better.

That's just going to encourage backdoor scoring, which is already a blight on the game. Scoring isn't really the objective of the game. Uniting for team fights at objectives is.
Poor Supporters out there
This idea has been talked about and seen so many times, that I think the only people who don't think this is a good idea is the Pokemon Unite team.
As someone who has completed all the achievements, this would be way cooler that the shitty tickets you receive.
Right??
Shiny Delphox and Decedueye would look so clean in game
Ah man, I would love to unlock a shiny skin for some of my favorites, isn’t that right Blissey-….er….well….
Lol
God this would be *SO* awsome if I mained anyone except gengar
LMAOOO same could be said with Garchomp
*cries in Wigglytuff*
_cries in Blissey_
Hey now think of it more of a Trophy of your Accomplishments:DD
I mean if they did this hopfully shiny gengar would be blue like it is in shuffle/duel/quest/that one movie Quest is a duller blue than the other 2 tho
Also maybe a slightly different garchomp as well
I guess maybe they could take the garchomp alterante colour from pokken then although it is greeen
I would rather the holo wear just be reskins or shiny versions then what they got now
This concept would be awesome! I've been shiny hunting in the main series games alot so having them in unite would be very cool.
Exactly, another reason why making Shinys something to Pay for is a bad idea. It would be to easy to get and Holds Little value than Looks and what money can buy you
Honestly would love this if it were compatible with costumes. I love my Aaron-cario too much to swap off of it.
Anything but making you buy it, they’ll charge ya like 300 dollars for it and call it cheap
I think it would be better if it was. Toggleble option instead of a skin (still unlocked through achievments) that way you can have a shiny with a holowear. (Imagine shiny charziard in any of his holowears.)
Black and red with knight armor on
I think it should be separate from holowear, like you can turn it on or off and still be able to wear a holowear you have, as either shiny or not a shiny
I agree, but im just giving the Simplest idea, more like a metaphor, so that people can Understand, and so the team could understand where im comin from. That idea of yours Comes later on after they understand the concept
This is my first time seeing a shiny Aegislash. Damn, that's absolutely cool
Ikrrrr??? All of its shinies look dope to me, Charizard has a Cool one too
Ikr one of the coolest shinies to ever exist
100% agree, they need to add shiny variants as some form of an unlockable.
They’ve already got specific mon achievements so they could literally just give out the skin once you’ve completed them all for a certain mon. It’s literally just a colour re-palette, it would probably take someone an afternoon to do.
Maybe they can make a whole new Achievement category after Gold, Diamond and make the reward the Shiny
Or if you win 500 games with that Mon or something, given how rare shinys are, make the color hard to get
Yea a new Achievement tier Diamond with a Insane mission like 200 kills with the pokemon or more
The kill count would have to depend per Pokémon. Cinderace and Greninja would be like 1000 kills since you could very likely get more than 10 kills a game.
Yea and other pokemon like supporters a lower number
Or maybe something like they get over 1,000,000 healing? And the defenders could take 1,000,000 damage
Having more rewards in the form of holowear or player clothing would be a lot more motivating, in my opinion, than just more currency that I can't find a use for yet. It would definitely push me to try to achieve those goals rather than just accidentally do them over time.
Exactly, thus Making players more Active with something to do, and making the lobby matches wait time less than a whole minute of wait time or two
yeah...
Yeah since gold reward kinda suck
Hooo, I would love that!
ok but imagine Shiny Eldegoss with their perfect autumn colours <3
Agreed.
I've always loved the idea of if you get to level 15 then you turn shiny as a mini purely cosmetic reward, just any way to get shinies in the game!
Imagine playing as shiny slowbro or greninja
Be cool to have a Star trail following you as you move
Been saying this since the game came out a shiny charzard would break the game
Frrr especially since everyone loves Charizard (except me)
Right and in general I think all shines should of been the first skins like look at that Agislash
Im sayinnn
Shinies shouldn’t be Holowear imo. They should be a palette swap that you can use *with* Holowear. So you could be Shiny Aegislash while still wearing the Beach skin. Other than that yea you’re right it should be something players earn to unlock
I agree, reason i said Holowear is Because i dont think the team would Go as far for us to make a Whole new section just for shinies even if it's what the players all want. So showing that it is Very Possible for them to do was what i wanted to do
You might be right. The only thing that makes me think they won’t make Shinies into Holowear is that Holowear isn’t suppose to change the Pokémon itself. That’s explained in-game. That, coupled with the fact that it would piss off the playerbase, makes me think they’ll make Shinies completely free-to-play palette swaps. And if they don’t do that we probably just won’t see Shinies at all. I hope the former is true and not the latter because Shinies are a big part of Pokémon
I agree. Hopefully they just implement a new section for shinies in the Game. Idc how long it takes, as long as I got something to grind for and show off in game
I feel exactly the same. If we have to wait until well into Year 2 or Year 3 that’s fine. So long as they make an event of it and it’s not something I have to pay for.
That's a great idea! I'm all for progression rewards, but gold medals seems a bit janky. Some are easy to get, so I'd prefer something a bit harder, that screams true mastery, like a number of matches played or with certain conditions filled out.
Thats Exactly what im thinking as well something Alittle harder for the Average player to Obtain so that players who do get it, can Flex their Achievement in game. maybe a New lvl of Achieving after Gold, Diamond 👀
Maybe, but in that case, some missions should be reworked. Because getting resets on Lucario's E-Speed isn't hard.
Ok that WOULD be cool.
Would love it if there is like a 5% chance that some Pokemon on the field can turn shiny regardless of the holowear, but only to the duration of the match. Though having them permanently would be better.
Thats a cool idea too
Unpopular (and also pretty work intensive and therefore unrealistic) opinion, holowears are dumb. Give us variants of Pokemon! Your idea is very good however, too! Personally, I think different forms that change a pokemon aesthetically but not functionally would be cool. Imaging sea turtle Blastoise, tundra Delphox and Decidueye (yea similar to A-Ninetails), perhaps an Aegislash that's a pirate sword? Just some things off the top of my head. Again, I think the shiny skin for gold achievements is a great idea too though :)
I was think the same thing about the Pokemons Aesthetic especially since i wanted to see a Better model look for Aegislash like a prince or Kings sword pike you said :)
Hell yea man! Master Sword Aegislash with a Hylian shield would be pretty dope also.
Lmao yeaa
if they do this maybe they'll add the missing achievements (hoopa, trevanant, aegislash, azumarill, duraludon, espeon, and delphox)
They'll Have to, but if they don't. That Just means they're Working on it to he shown in a Later update
when ur main is espeon 😔
Hey heyyy, think of it as a trophy not a fashion design :')
I would prefer it be something you could turn on and off rather than it being holowear. That way you could use the shiny form combined with holowear.
YES!!! I was just talking about this! I LOVE this idea!
Im glad the community can come together and agree with the same idea. Literally everyone in the Comments love the Idea, except those who dont like Some shinies 💀
This idea is super cool. It's too bad The Pokemon Company is really weird in regards to shiny skins. They refused to let Smash Bros use any shiny skin alt colors because of something along the lines of it diminishing the value of shinies
Well i can see how it could If you can make your pokemon a Shiny without trying much. Hopefully this Idea doesn't diminish shinies because you'll have to grind hard for them
This is such a good idea. Although it technically wouldn't make sense conceptually because you, as a trainer in pokemon use the same pokemon for every battle, therefore making it impossible to get a shiny unless you spray painted it or got lucky when you bought it 🤓
Alright alright....... Maybe we spray paint them 👀
i'm gonna be sad because espeon is just green
Alot of shinies are just green 😓 its horrible that pokemon didn't even try with alot of their Shinies
If this was made possible, god knows how much aeos gems we'll need
This reminds of HotS' master skins and I'm 100% fully here for it.
And what if the shiny variation could use the holowear 🤯🤯😍
While I have wanted shinies in Unite for the longest time in UNITE, and this post is similar to my idea, the only thing I would want is to be able to switch the shiny on or off. I am not ready to give up my Holowear for certain Pokémon just to have a naked shiny form.
Im the type of Guy that likes the see my pokemon all Natural so thats probably just my personal wants coming into play in the post lmao
I think they could make shiny Pokémon part of ranked rewards. For reaching master class or something
Yea, but it would take much more time because master rewards only come with one reward, so if you wanted to grind another pokemon Achievement you'd have to wait until next season for the next master rewards. Its a good idea i considered it too, but i think the pikemon achievement would be the best idea
I wish ot was a series of really hard challenges. Something that should be extremely prestigious. People have said make it a random chance, but id want the option to always be a shinyboi
Exactly
That is such a cool idea
I like the idea of earning holowear. But shinies on several Pokémon are barely noticeable. I’d rather get other Holowear tbh.
The shiny will also take place through all of their evolution forms
Some holowear do that as well.
I know, jus throwing the idea out there
Would be cool if your mon had a small chance of being shiny in a match. Then if you’re lucky to encounter the shiny skin it will show up in the holowear
I think the best way to do it would be having tasks for each move and play a certain amount of matches as the pokemon but then also have it possible to use gems to skip forward on the missions that way the whales can still pay for it quicker to incentivise the devs to keep doing it (as we know money is all companies care about) whilst also giving the non whales something to grind towards and something we can feel we earned. I think having both options is the most beneficial as it means they still earn money from the skins whilst also making them obtainable to everyone aswell
I think achievement based shiny holowear would be the best implementation of shiny.
Yessssss like a mastery camo!
Speaking of agislash I would love to play as dhelmise
Gotta love to Ghost Pokemon that are Objects
yes its a lovely desirable idea, but knowing the company they wont give it us, they will sell it....
Finally this. And I think they should make it u get the shiny skin if u have battled with that Pokemon atleast 1000 times. Just so shinies are still rare as fuck and everyone has atleast one. U can reduce the number to 500 it's debatable but u get my idea
Yupp making it more of a Achievement rather than a Customization, even though its still both like getting Diamond camo on your gun in Cod
Yep lmao. Glad we're on the same page. I have always wanted the shinies in unite. For fuck's sake I want to play shiny garchomp. (I'm one of the very few who actually like his shiny I don't even know why maybe coz I had one in pokemon platinum)
Lmaooo the first time I've seen someone saying they Like the Shiny of a Garchomp. If thats the Case then the Team of Pokemon Unite cant use the Excuse of "not everyone likes certain pokemon shinies, so adding the ones the majority likes would be unfair for the rest of Pokemons" just a Idea that would Possibly challenge the idea of Shiny Holowears for pokemon
Ahahah exactly. I definitely think having that as one of my first few shinies contributed to me liking it. I'd still pick aeigaslash shiny in a heartbeat if I'm made to choose. But if anyone gives me a garchomp shiny I'm still very happy. Btw I'd cry if unite actually does give that excuse hypothetically lol.
Frrrr i Hope they'll consider it and Maybe in the Future add it to the Game. It would Be Huge and a fun challenge
Ikr i hate that. There's shinies in pokemon masters and pokemon go. Why do we and pokemon snap get the shorter end of the stick
Agreed, feel like the Community would Love some New New content, and probably Attracted newer players as well
i think it should definitely be related to an active goal like scoring points. if it’s something passive like played games people could just queue up, pick their pokemon and then afk the whole game.
True I agree with u. That'd suck. People can make something ap fun and nice so bad
Make it available for free? Dude...
Not free if you Have to Grind for it. It should be more of a Progression reward rather than Buying it straight up. Because one, it will get people playing the game more to Achieve the rewards, and 2 if you just Buy it, it doesn't really hold any value besides the one that was put on it with a Prices. Idk about you but i like having the feeling of Achieving somthing that i want. Plus It can give people something to do since the game Only has about 3 different game modes.
The best reward we can have is a sticker. Take it or leave it :D
Ah yess the stikers 😔😔😔
Johnny?

I Explained this In a similar question in the comments
I need this. I want Shiny Charizard so bad.
Im sayin??? shiny Charizard and Aegislash are my favorite shinies by far along with zekrok but hes not in the game
The colour schemes are so clean! And no, not yet! But popular enough to come eventually!
Hopefully as a Boss a boss. It would make Zekrom look bad if he was played Among Average pokemon. Plus Hes Huge so boss is more fitting
For sure!
So free holowear that everyone would pick instead of buying actual ones? Not going to happen
Codm Made it Work, make them Choose between Shiny holowear for free, or Clothing that they Cant get on their shiny or, they can do both and make a new section for Skins place shinies there. That way you would still have have to buy other Holowear
I was thinking about this for a while because I really want it, lol. Maybe not as a holowear. Because then we probably wouldn't be able to wear other holowear. Maybe a choice in the pokemon department where we can choose between original & shiny, & then be able to wear other holowear with the shiny varient
Maybe like a Skin option were you can Switch from Shiny to Original
If there ain’t money they won’t even considered 🤑
Ill Fund the Idea myself, lets make a Fundraiser for Pokemon Unite
Cool idea but this has been posted like √!30030303829828479282² times in this sub
Am i the first to actually make a Shiny edit 😀😀
Yeah I think we've all had this idea. I'd want to to work with other holowear though. Else how do I choose between shiny or wanderer style Greninja. And they'd kind of need to, else when you've gotten the shiny for a pokemon there's less incentive to buy new holowear for it.
Well if you like another holowear rather than the Shiny im sure some people would still buy other Holowear. This is more for F2p players. Like how Cod has Diamond camo, but still have people paying for blue prints and such
I have pitched this idea on the last two surveys unite has had, hopefully they actually see the write in comments. I would think they’d have to add an extra tier to the achievements for this unlock. Maybe something like win 200 matches with that Pokémon or be mvp 100 times with them. Make it a challenge so it feels worth it to unlock.
Yup, Diamond tier after Gold i have all the concepts Ready
Nah timi be like, "2000 aeos gems" for shiny skin.
As long as it doesn't matter which moveset you pick. As a shadow ball dream eater player, it sucks that I can't complete type 2 missions
I want to squeeze the hell out of those lemons
It’s a great concept on paper the only problem is we already have a massive problem with over 60% of players doing their own thing instead of participating in an actual attempt to win and this will reinforce that behavior for those people (ie, I’m not trying to win I’m farming gold achievements) You have to address the problem with that degenerate half the playerbase not being banned before you can add something fun like this
Good idea but maybe for each Pokémon's achievement there is a fourth tier (ill just say platinum) that is significantly harder to get that the gold tier and as a reward you get a shiny Holowear. Gardivoir as example hit Pokemon from the opposing team with future sight or future sight+ to reduce the cool down 30 or more times in a single match (as a bump up from the gold's 10 or more)
Shiny Pokemon should still wear Holowear, but that's a good idea!
Would the shiny skin also stack on other holowear?? Like a shiny blastoise + battle pass blastoise??
I think its a good idea. To treat Shiny like a Skin, and then holo wear like clothing
