The History of Shiny Pokemon in the Pokemon TCG

[@Yeahhhhthisisgood]

It’s wild that they called a palette swap “shiny” and set the Pokemon world on fire

[@Marapetersen1]

Shiny was actually initially the fan term for them based on the sparkle animation when they were sent into battle, it later became the official term

[@swinvloe7945]

The work you need to put into the games along with the time it takes makes everyone understand why we go crazy over recolord pokemon

[@CraftsmanOfAwsomenes]

They weren’t called shiny until the shiny legendary beasts event for HGSS that was shortly before the release of BW (it unlocked the Zoroark event in BW) Even earlier that gen there were shiny events that tiptoed around it with names like “pikachu colored pichu”

[@UltraMathi]

That Palafin card is SO GOOD it's gonna make me like a pokemon I actually find horrendous

[@cluckdimple3017]

It's been 10 months. Has Palafin grown on you yet?

[@TheFawse]

I remember collecting all of the Shining cards from Neo Destiny when I was younger, they were so cool. Wish I kept my Pokémon cards just for the nostalgia and memories, but I randomly gave them all away one day. As a kid I would grow out of things overnight, also sold my Yugioh deck for 50c in grade 9 so I could buy a cookie

[@j.m.3600]

My first ever shiny was a golden Magikarp in Sootopolis city. A Bittersweet experience. One of the coolest shinies but at the time also the only Shiny they just give you in the game

[@Voltorb1993]

My first shiny ever was a Graveler. Take a wild guess how that one went.

[@morpphh]

I had just gotten the Hoopa card myself, it's so so so underrated and cheap rn I'm so glad you included it in this video

[@jy2967]

I know, I was so happy that it wasn’t expensive and hot myself a copy

[@RichardBlaziken]

Didn't realize I wasn't subbed; fixed that issue! I can't wait to see the feature length movie for Gardevoir in the TCG haha

[@gorko9867]

Just got back into the Pokemon TCG and so glad your channel came up on my recommended! Love your content cant wait to binge the other History/Legacy videos you have!!!

[@charlesleverette2479]

Love the quality of these videos👍

[@michaeljones1045]

Dude I love your content you seem pretty knowledgeable about the card game and I've been playing competitive tcg for 10 years so it's cool to hear about things that I remember and things that came before I began playing

[@pikastudios8752]

I love your content man. Please keep it up. I was never into the Pokémon tcg, but you’ve made me want to look into it a lot as I really like your type of content as the history of games is so important.

[@Vortrox]

Awesome vid! For some reason im in love with the Shining Rayquaza card from Shining Legends, its just so sleek and well put together. So happy to own it, I want the shining Mew & Jirachi now too

[@matheuscastello6554]

as a non-tcg player (i collected the cards as a kid but didnt really know how to play) this was a very interesting and engaging video to watch, thank you :)

[@jonahhiraoka7093]

I loved this video. Great quality, well researched, and very informative.

[@jerberverc5959]

Fantastic work yet again, these vids are some of my favorites!

[@8bitflame853]

Thank you for this video!! I’m trying to collect all of these cards and their variants. There were two Japanese cards in this video that you missed. There’s a shiny Silvally card only in Japan that you didn’t mention, as well as a ‘Shining Imakuni’ card, which is just him having a flashlight shone at him. Thank you for the video, I’ve been needing a shiny Pokémon card video since CandyEvie’s came out several years ago!!

[@kitsaitogames]

Another great video👏👏 keep up the great work

What a video man, that was a really great compilation on the TCG history. Hope many people come to watch it too.

[@mike_deity]

When i was younger My big brother came home one friday night and bought me some pokemon packs. When i opened them, i got the first shining gyrados card. The next day, mom took me to walmart, where i would buy my packs. And obtained the shining magikarp. Oh man, was i happy when that happened. Good old days

[@Omar511gz]

Commenting for the algorithm but I also like the quality of your videos, looking forward to the next one

[@JahanSoundSystem]

4:18 *stares at my English rayquaza collection* Yeah, you and me both... Lovely video btw

[@nukelewman]

dude that natu video got me into shiny hunting back in like 2015

[@jy2967]

They also have other exclusive Japanese shiny cards that weren’t released here, Pryces delibird and Sabrina’s espeon from the Pokemon VS expansion

[@KingKardboard]

I have that corocoro shining mew from my childhood :) fav card

[@francescogirardello9250]

The Call of Legends shinies were MY shinies. Always tried to pull them as a kid, but never succeeded.

[@Cactus2388]

Keep them coming dude I love your videos!!!

[@drvonstreusel8171]

Dropping everything to watch this

[@relicy]

another banger. keep up the great work!

[@RamenCupBMG]

i wish they put shinies in every set and made them chase cards like real shiny pokemon in the games. as in, you pull a common pikachu and there's a 1/???? chance of pulling a shiny version. same art, just different colored pokemon. you'll have people collecting master sets where they have the entire set in shiny pokemon form and it'll be insanely hard to accomplish

[@alexgill6570]

Saving to watch later! Another blessing from Weeaboolin 🙏🏼

[@BoggoNewman]

Great video, subscribed. As for me, since I just started collecting I got some preorders for an ETB and a premium collection from Paldean Fates, even with the backlash I just want some shiny pokemon cards tbh so fingers crossed for that Palafin

[@Scorbunzx]

I want a shiny elektross from an egg, but I still haven’t gotten it yet. I hope that 2024 gives me shiny luck. Also great video!

[@cpinter10]

Fantastic video! My only critique is that some of the descriptions of the cards' appearance are a bit misleading. E.g., the shiny vault being on a 'white' background is true but lacks nuance about the hologram and texture. Or the Neo Destiny shining colors being hard to see is only true for those atrocious digital scans that make the pkmn look more like a silhouette, when irl they are much brighter and very easy to see the colors.

[@Mimic_Gaming]

Wait is this a reupload? Or am I havin the most insane case of deja vu

[@NecromancyForKids]

This is the shiny version of the video

[@JustRichStl]

Very very dope video my guy

[@777privet]

what’s the song at 9:00 ?

[@mac30yyz]

the background music is from battle revolution right? can someone tell me what song it is

[@stupidguitar17]

Amazing Video!

[@BradenINSANE]

*sees font in the thumbnail* Ah, I see you're a man of culture as well

[@ryanpooley]

I somehow got ahold of shining star metagross as a kid and traded it for shinging star flareon and around 5 years ago I sold it in terrible condition for $70! Gosh I wish I took better care of my things

[@v0canon]

I'm not really sure if it counts, but I remember seeing 2 cards of/featuring Jigglypuff with green eyes (one was a Jigglypuff card, the other was a supporter card I think), yet oddly enough those cards don't count as shinies! I think there's been a mix up with people at the time: because the first Jigglypuff of the anime had green/emerald eyes instead of blue, they gave it green eyes on some official artworks, including TCG.

[@kenthuang436]

I actually have one Pokémon Star and that is Entei. I also have a few of the Radiant Pokémon cards.

[@simongamer987]

This video is so well made 👏

[@chandler8434]

Can we get a history of the sets from Ruby and Sapphire right around the time the transfer from WOTC to Nintendo?

[@Nix.ily3]

What about the common shiny azumaril from one of the omega Rudy sets

[@mathiasl2623]

awesome video, thank you

[@Hynotama]

I have a Radiant Eevee and I love it! 🥰

[@Zaccyonline]

Call of Legends is the GOAT

[@teren60]

ARE prism star cards not considered shiny?

[@Guy_fromALaska]

Can you do lugia next thank you

[@enoyna1001]

I still have a CoroCoro Promo Shining Mew card

[@Yeahhhhthisisgood]

This channel is dope

[@shad0wphoenix1]

The mi678tv natu is nostalgic :,)

[@TheTwistedTreant526]

12:00 THAT'S HOW THE SHINY SHOULD BE

[@F1ghtGam3r]

History of duel type TCG pokemom

[@kylehorner9562]

Mudkip Gold star is not the shiny version of Mudkip tho... does anyone know why? Shiny Mudkip is pink/purple-ish

[@dionpira1444]

so the mudkip star is not shiny?

[@treyvonishere4375]

0:06 bro shut up it’s a mid recolor

[@shinygiveaways1920]

No, black and white had a shiny pokachu in base and a shiny mewoth in like noble victories or something

[@jy2967]

Did it?

[@shinygiveaways1920]

yeah look it up@@jy2967

[@hexx09real]

SHINY NATU

[@hulkingmass]

in what way is a gold star pokemon a shiny pokemon?

[@thomasadams8463]

In the way that they're literally depicting the pokemons shiny color

[@tripled2096]

Didnt even bring up shining imakuni smh

[@swinvloe7945]

You also cant get shiny volcanion legally in game which could be another reason why volcanion wasnt shiny in the tcg

[@Rocketsrares]

It’s a card look up shining volcanion it’s illustrated by Hitoshi Ariga

[@Alex-gw6ie]

Why doesn't pokemon import japanese exclusive cards like Yugioh

[@KingChiggy]

I will say the art rares and the special art rares are what I wish shiny pokemon cards looked like. Having the normal shiny pokemon just being the pokemon on a white background is so boring. I dont care if its "rare" I want the cards to look pretty!

[@felixbelaunzaran1680]

You never mentionrd the light toxicity hydro mmymikiu

[@MikeSiegert]

Honestly I don’t think I’m going to be picking up he new shiny set. While the art rares are beautiful, it’s not worth it to me to rip packs for a chance of pulling 7 cards. The shiny vault has always been kinda ugly to me, but that’s just my opinion

[@logannnn]

it’s never “worth it” to rip packs. if you’re hyper focused on a few cards from a set save yourself time and money and just buy them as singles.

[@MikeSiegert]

@@logannnnI meant it’s not worth it for me. I don’t really care about the card value.

[@ddrspy]

I like shiny pokemon

[@bad_atgames]

radiant eevee isnt THAT bad

[@bruhmphrey]

Niceu!!!

[@snegsbegs]

But half those gold stars arent shiny? Lol

[@theghostfacekza4549]

Weird to hear red gyrados is 'popular'. I don't think I've ever met a single person who likes it, being tied to the story really ruined it's allure

[@tankdempcy1]

The history of arceus in the tcg please

[@Frankie12374]

I do not like the black and white shinys personally I like the diamond and pearl cards better

[@machina5]

I'm so glad I'm not related to a shiny hunter holy crap the Natu guy was insufferable lol

[@xxXxBluecheddarxXxx]

You can always tell how sad a person's life is by how they scream "oh my god" like morons over a shiny pokemon. Sweet Jesus. 😆 🤣 😆
