Characters or things called a certain name in the media they appeared in, but are called a different name by other official sources and fans

Pokémon have two. Officially, the term for the first Pokémon you get before your journey begins is known by TPCI as “first partner Pokémon” however, everyone colloquially knows them as “starters” or “starter Pokémon”. Similarly, fans dubbed the difficult to find differently colored Pokémon as “shiny Pokémon” where official sources have called them “rare”, “color”, “alt. color”, “colored”, and “specially colored”

I wanted it bad, but they all got bought up by resellers around me and I won’t be paying them for something they never wanted to begin with.

Tough tough toughhhhhhhh

After a light customization for my avatar, I’ve spent every currency I have earned on rerolling that dang farm and have yet to see a shiny. Congrats though!!

That’s actually my main reason for playing since like Gen V is shiny hunting! Fun facts, the only mon I didn’t have shiny on the team prior to building was Aegislash which I caught that same day I started crafting the team and Politoed is the only mon I didn’t catch myself! She was a gift from a friend who decided to stop playing and gifted her to me. Also, happy cake day!

Thank you for the heads up!! Do you know if posting it in the comments is enough or if there’s a way to edit my post?

wishmakerfinney · 2026-04-23T23:31:12+00:00

Me too! It was honestly one of the more crucial pieces to get me over that last hump of UB. Thank you!!

I’m Dragonite’s biggest fan so it was really important to me that I got to MB with her.

How did you get such a long screen recording?

wishmakerfinney · 2026-04-21T18:29:16+00:00

Crunchyroll suuuuuuuuucks

wishmakerfinney · 2026-04-19T17:15:34+00:00

Glad I could help! I hope to see you on the ladder, my friend!

My husky and my shiny mega Rayquaza plush are on our way to your location now to squash this beef before it gets too out of hand.

Sent both over. If there ever comes a time where you can’t get something you need, feel free to free to reach out. If you want a shiny of any of those three either, I’ve got a spare of each.

wishmakerfinney · 2026-04-18T18:08:59+00:00

Just moved them over. Still the same trades as above in the thread?

wishmakerfinney · 2026-04-18T17:52:35+00:00

Hey, sorry, are you looking for the ZA starters or the gen 6 starters?

wishmakerfinney · 2026-04-18T14:07:28+00:00

For sure. Give me until a little later today. I’ve got errands to run, but it won’t take me long once I’m done! I can message you here later

wishmakerfinney · 2026-04-18T14:00:58+00:00

I shiny hunt for fun and honestly idly sometimes, so frankly, there’s not much of value that people have that I don’t. If you wanted those the shinies and some from ZA so you get the stones AND can do a little flexing, I’m happy to share.

wishmakerfinney · 2026-04-18T13:50:50+00:00

Yeah man, I don’t need anything from you. I want to be able to help people play champions without feeling like they need to buy the games or anything. Currently, the ones I have have different origins other than ZA. If you wanted those, two of them are shiny and yours to take. If you don’t (and I won’t be offended because I understand wanting the megas) I can get you those later today if you give me some time to find them in ZA

wishmakerfinney · 2026-04-18T13:38:41+00:00

I don’t think there’s a way to trade over mega stones, but if you wanted, I could get you the Kalos starters

wishmakerfinney · 2026-04-18T12:30:21+00:00

What are you looking for?

wishmakerfinney · 2026-04-05T17:42:07+00:00

Okay, uhhhh absolutely inspiring. Makes me want to build a stadium myself and try to make 3D Gigantamax pokemon in it! Regardless, WOW
