"Later games removed all the color restrictions Gold and Silver had and Pokémon could have dozens of colors, but Gamefreak stuck with the “change the color palette” method for five generations."
So they are forgiven for the first two generations but they decided to be lazy idiots after that.
Thankfully Gen 6 and beyond is where they fully pick the shinies so if there are any people hate then they are again at fault.

Badass psuedo that looks EXACTLY the same. Big waste!

Shiny Zekrom is a hell of a let down as well.

Shiny Zekrom is a hell of a let down as well. You wanna talk about Shiny Legends? Go look at Regice from Gen 6 on wards. My word, I soft reset for it in Omega Ruby and my eyes were so glued to the screen the whole time because if you missed the sparkle then you'd never know. The Lati's are good Shiny's but I was really disappointed with the Johto beasts. Suicune's cool but I wish they'd done something more with Entei and Riakou. The Gen 1 birds suck as well. They really dropped the ball on the Legendaries but gave us god tier Shiny's on Pokemon like Drowzee.

This is everything I need to complete the National Dex on Diamond. some of these are just I need to evolve/make an egg of what I have. some are stone evolvers that I haven't went digging for.. and a good chunk are stuff I have on Sword/Shield and haven't bothered doing again because I'm waiting on Home. But if you've got any of these and would be willing to trade, let me know. edit: I have a copy of Pearl I rented and am working through right now. got a few of the harder to get ones ticked, namely Palkia, but a LOT of the exclusives are locked behind the post game and I don't intend to beat the elite 4 and I skipped a lot of trainer battles so I don't have close to a 100% dex. I just need to import those over. I know Palkia, Purugly, Ho-Oh, Deoxys, Carnivine, and Victribell are all on Pearl waiting to be moved over.

Anyone have any luck with the event Slowpoke and Hoothoot?
I've not found their shinies or good IV versions yet.

I caught a random shiny Charmander on the way to my grandma's house today. As if I need more of those but still had to catch it of course.

I caught two shinies today while walking my grandma's dog and or being with her before going to my friends.
One was a first for me which is always nice: Slugma!
The second was like Charmander in that I have a ton so it wasn't needed but was appreciated: Machop.

I caught another shiny while walking the dog on Sunday (first time Doduo!).
It isn't great IV wise but I am still happy.
I really want a damn shiny Geodude though. They are everywhere and the shiny has been out for a long time yet I don't have one...

I think I have two shiny Geodude. If not then it’s 1 regular and 1 Alolan. I haven’t had anything since this event started. Would really like to get a Slugma.

Scored a shiny Diglett during the spotlight hour. My second one. I think that’s the 4th shiny I’ve gotten during a spotlight hour dating back to August. Sounds like a long time, but factoring in that it’s once a week and most of the time it’s either not shiny eligible/don’t try due to having them already, it’s quite a good percentage.
Edit: Followed that up with a shiny Slugma on my drive home from work!

Great job. I didn't bother with the Spotlight Hour this past Tuesday since I have like 4 shiny Diglett and the shiny rate in general is sh*t..
They need to make it like 1/2 as good as the Community Day shiny rate..
Wednesday was pretty uneventful in the game for me as well so hopefully today is better.
