So I was playing through Black 2 and I found a shiny tranquil, it's only my 3rd legit shiny (I had the cute charm bug in platinum so I have like 5 boxes full of shinies from that) but right now my team consists of sawsbuck, munna, cinccino, flareon, klink, and vespiquen, so I'm wondering which one of them I should replace

BW2 also gives a free shiny Haxorus if you see every regional Pokemon.

Gible and Dratini both have bad shinies in their final evolved forms anyway. Dragonite is ugly and Garchomp barely changes

When trying to fill the unova dex to get shiny haxorus, I had to grab a shuckle, which are fairly rare, but in a cave so doable. I knew a shiny haxorus was at the end of it so it'd be worth it.

Two shiny bitches for the price of one. I usually have better luck on emulators though, catching 2-3 per game.

Only ever encountered 3 (discounting freebies, such as the haxorus/dratini/gible/whatever):

Tentacool in Sapphire. Accidentally fainted it, like a dumb kid I reset hoping it would return, but sadly not.

Pineco in Silver. It blew itself up.

Quagsire in Platinum. Only one I actually caught. Pokecheck seems to think it's suspicious but I didn't want to trade it regardless.
I retardedly named it 'Shiny' so I wouldn't forget (I did anyway) and once I transferred it to BW and realised, it was too late.
