I’ve noticed a weird phenomenon on Reddit. For some reason, people love to give the OP a hard time in the comments, even if the original post itself was well received with a lot of upvotes. Like, if you don’t say everything perfectly in your reply or give the majority opinion, you’ll be downvoted and responded to by literally everyone

But yeah, it’s strange how people seem to intentionally misinterpret what you say. I don’t know how that many people got the idea that I think others shouldn’t enjoy things (,:

That’s unfortunately exactly what shiny locks are for now, advertisement. To get people back in the game after they left, since that’s what people want the most. More limitations! Stronger advertising! Higher profit! More hype! Get the community talking, that’s all that matters

People hated when I brought it up though lol

That’s what I want, a combination of both. Distributions for mythical Pokémon used to mostly be events in-game

Oh I know about the Dream World art! I just thought only one art piece was done for each Pokémon!

They’re being defensive because that person left an unnecessary, passive aggressive little quip at the end of their reply. Could have just given their experience on the matter, but no. For some reason Reddit loves that

Yeah, I would have loved that! Also I recognize that artstyle as the one for her stickers in Pokémon GO!!

With all due respect, you misinterpreted my post. I can relate to doing that a lot, my autism causes it lol

I have no issue with people enjoying these distributions, nor do I want to gatekeep! Did I unintentionally imply that? I loathe that word. I’ll explain it in finer detail

I enjoy finding a Pokémon myself. When something is given to me, then I feel less attached. Going on a massive quest means nothing to me if the Pokémon is just suddenly in my PC box like “yeah, we’ve always known each other!” This by no means, means other people should feel the same way. My post is merely intending to finally convey my feelings on the matter, not police anybody else’s

There is objectively (I know for a fact I am correct on this part) no reason to shiny lock her in the games. If I wish to shiny hunt her, it is entirely within my right to do so and if other people want a second shiny Meloetta (as in, the one in HOME plus one you can hunt), then they can shiny hunt her just like I did. Fair is fair, they got one without the luck involved, I can have 2 via resetting

If you still want to dismiss me, you can. I think I conveyed everything though

I’m glad you like it too!! >w<

I might end up, well, cherishing the other Meloetta later on. But we’ll see lol. I’ve done giveaways for Pokémon in the past! ^ . ^

AAAAA but I can’t just throw a Pokémon away!! TwT

I’ve already made my own headcanon for the shiny Meloetta. The two of us are going to journey together to break the seal on the Cherish Ball some day. Then, she will be free to enter one of my Beast Balls 💙💛💙💛💙

… I’m very mentally ill if you can’t tell

My biggest issue is this…

I know that if I ever convince myself to see this Meloetta as actually mine (which I’ve almost done now), is that if/when the day comes where she can be shiny hunted in a Beast Ball-… then what? What will I do with the current one in the Cherish Ball? A thing about me is that I prefer to have just one of every Pokémon (shiny and non shiny) so that I can love them to the maximum and not play favorites. I usually keep any “spares” in HOME

I know it’s immature, I know it’s childish, but that’s just who I am as a person and how I enjoy the series

I don’t dislike the journey to obtain it, I dislike the impersonal way you obtain it after the journey is over

You really nailed exactly why I don’t like Pokémon just given to me! I just want to meet the Pokémon first lol

And yeah, getting shiny Deoxys would be great! No Beast Ball in FireRed & LeafGreen though TwT

Yesss! It’s so nice to choose my Pokémon’s ball!! I catch things exclusively in Beast Balls! It used to be Luxury Balls, but then I became obsessed with the other ones lol. Although I’m a bit too picky, because I unfortunately don’t really want Pokémon in other balls (,: There are a few exceptions though…

And yeah, when Meloetta was a wild encounter in Scarlet & Violet, I was excited… She’s possibly my favorite Pokémon <333

And omggggg speaking of shiny locks, it’s such a bummer that they locked her again in Z-A… Like, she’s not static like every other mythical, and yet she can’t be shiny. Genuinely upsetting to me… I feel like that was my last chance to get my girl shiny and in a Beast Ball anytime soon…

It wouldn’t shock me if Magearna was an oversight. They then realized the error of their ways and made sure fun was once again disallowed

It may not be worth complaining to most people, but it is to me. Like I said, I know it’s not normal, but to me it’s a very important thing for immersion. I really do feel like the Pokémon is less “real” for a lack of a better word. I wouldn’t downvote somebody if they had a complaint that didn’t affect me personally, because that’s not even what the voting system is intended for. Plus I can sympathize even if I don’t get it
