I have a core pokemon memory from back when I played Sapphire as my first game. I knew basically nothing about the game and was running around in the safari zone. I ran into this weird Girafarig that had a blue nose and blue spikes, tried to catch it, but it ran away. It wasn't until half a decade later that I learned what a shiny was and that I failed my first shiny encounter.

[@Spookworm]

4:57 I think the lock-on feature is more saying it has the potential to be tiny, but it's not a guarantee, kinda like how it tells you a pokémon has a mark but it doesn't specifically say what it has. It's just letting you know that this pokémon was the smallest one out of the group it spawned in, so you don't have to squint at every single one you come across

[@ZakanaHachihaCBC]

Smaller or Larger then average

[@CTSael]

As a mark hunter, the lock-on feature does help to an extent, but majority of the time it will be any mark BUT the one you’re looking for. The sheer amount of uncommon, dawn, dusk, lunchtime and sleepy-time marks I’ve amassed is insane since they’re far more likely than any of the personality marks. (One of my favorites is my Magnezone with the stormy mark. A weather mark doesn’t carry the same weight as a personality mark, but at least it matches the Pokémon.)

[@Wurmze]

It’s just telling you it’s any size other than average

[@spooky808]

@@CTSael on the topic of marked shinies, I was hunting for a shiny sandyghast a while back, and when it finally spawned i saw that it was marked. So I caught it, went to check its mark, and nearly lost my mind when I saw it had the rare mark.

[@CTSael]

@ I wouldn’t have the patience to hunt for marks on shiny Pokémon. If a shiny comes along while I’m looking for marks, that’s great. But the odds for both to occur together is too much of a time sink to pursue. I have other things to do and other games to play. (I did find a shiny Oshawott that’s marked but it’s just the snowy mark, so his title is ‘the Snow Frolicker.’ I find that really adorable.)

[@diortememirp6204]

One of my favorite things they did in recent Pokemon games was the size mechanic, straight up. Like, I haven't gotten a jumbo or mini shiny yet (though i've gotten like 3 rare mark ones, including Polteageist, Hatterene and Gyarados), but at the same time the potential is cool, and even just seeing your mon with an abnormal model size is just that much more personality for it. Like, the big Farigiraf was so big its LEG was almost as tall as you, and yet it felt safe enough around you to fall asleep. I'd like more unique behaviors and interactions with the mons in picnics, but still, the size is like the icing on a cake, and another thing that makes your Pokemon "YOURS", y'know? I would also like to get a personality mark mini/jumbo but there's no way in hell that's gonna happen since even the max odds for a personality mark is still like 6/100, so stacking all three of those probabilities is like winning the flippin' lottery. Still gonna try, but it takes a special kind of improbable to be more improbable than that.

[@avanelletheclockfriend2515]

This definitely gives me a much needed motivation boost for my own silly little hunt. I’ve decided that because I am the #1 Dhelmise fan I must get a shiny one via every method in Sword. I already bred one via Masuda Method, and I actually got TWO from raids- the first I got by chance just a couple days after I hatched the MM one, but I ended up trading it like an absolute fool before realizing it’d be a neat challenge to try and get one in every way. I was gonna “cheat” and use the raid seed shiny frame hunting method to get another one because raid den odds SUCK, but then I somehow managed to get a SECOND one from a raid completely by chance. That was last week while I was taking a break from the mines where I have been trying to get the funny bowling alley carpet arson clown from space(shiny Blacephalon), and before that I got the wild encounter shiny outside Spikemuth. Now I just have two fish for the last two, one at Challenge Beach and one at the Frigid Sea- I was actually planning to get one in mainland Galar via fishing but learned later that you can only encounter them in the overworld there. Blessing in disguise. See, SwSh chain fishing kinda sucks, on account of the fact that it basically doesn’t exist. Fishing repeatedly in the same spot will boost your odds of getting a wild Pokémon with an aura, and they have boosted shiny odds(up to iirc 1/455), but the rest are base odds(well, shiny charm odds in my case) regardless of what you do. The chance of fishing up a Dhelmise are 10% at Challenge Beach and 5% at the Frigid Sea, but I’m using a Trevenant with the harvest ability to boost the encounter odds since it has an out of battle effect with a 51% chance to force encounters to be grass type if possible. Even with that, though, it gets really repetitive, and the “chain” breaks if you fail to reel in the wild Pokémon, leave the area, catch the Pokémon(you HAVE to defeat it to keep the boosted aura odds), or encounter a Pokémon with an aura while fishing. It’s just as monotonous as it sounds. Here I was think the raid shiny would be the biggest stumbling block, but nope! Fishing hell on earth. Small price to pay for funny seaweed. Looking forward to how ridiculous it will look in camp with five of them once I achieve my goal. Maybe I’ll set up in areas folks frequent just to goof around, might try to gather lots of rare berries and make good curry just to really embody the persona of “some freak in the wilderness but at least they mean well”. A family can be some rando young adult with questionable fashion sense and a dream, some weird seaweed, some weird seaweed but red, some weird seaweed but red, some weird seaweed but red, some weird seaweed but red, and some weird seaweed but red.
