Title: Tell me that Druddigon’s shiny is really bad, please
I figure this would be a good place to ask... I was playing Pokémon
Y earlier, just training my Absol in the final section of Victory
Road, and I’d already finished EV training it (this was my very
first time EV training a Pokémon, by the way), so I was just
focused on leveling up and didn’t have any reason to pay attention
to what Pokémon Absol was beating—or so I thought... Then I
happened to look at the screen after I’d already told Absol to use
Giga Impact, and finally saw that the Druddigon Absol was fighting
this time was shiny—too late...
I was just ranting about how terrible the camera is in Pokémon Y,
how it never shows you the stuff you need to see (and seems to
deliberately hide Pokémon from you, like I’d already had
frustrating experiences with when hunting different-colored
Flabébés). And then this happened. It hid the fact that the
Druddigon I was fighting was shiny from me until I’d already told
Absol to do its one-hit-KO move... I was of course begging the
little digital particles that make up my Absol to let Giga Impact
miss as it had on many other occasions... But, nope, of course it
wasn’t going to miss when I needed it to :/
So, please, anyone here who hates Druddigon’s shiny form, rant
about how terrible it is and how you’d never want to have it for me
so that I can feel better about messing up so badly and not getting
it when I had the chance. I do think that regular Druddigon’s
colors are much better, as blue is my favorite color.
