>>44600234Feel free to call me retarded but I had an idea for something like this:
The 1/8000 chance for every Pokemon to be shiny ALSO applies to every Pokemon owned by NPC trainers. I.E. that random fisherman? He could have a shiny Kingler. Your rival might have a shiny starter, the girl who trades you a haunter might give you a shiny haunter, hell even the champion might have a random shiny on his or her team.
You would have to add some sort of code to make sure that a Pokemon remains shiny once generated (looking at you Wally) and cannot be generated shiny after being generated normally.
Would this anger some people? Maybe, but personally I think it would be cool. Most people might only see one or two shiny NPC Pokemon, but some people will have a really cool story or two:
>Holy shit Cynthia's Lucario was shiny in my game!>I bought a Magikarp from the salesman and he wound up being shiny!Thoughts?
