"Unpopular opinion: This is NOT a “post your shiny” sub."

#PokemonGO: Something needs to change. Mods need to step in. Every single day, this sub is filled with what seems like endless shiny screenshots and nothing else. While that’s cool and we’re happy for you and all, there’s specific subs dedicated for that stuff (PokemonGoBrag). That’s not what this sub is for.We have events rolling out one after another after another, with new shinies and rotations following (the same specific ones that everyone is hunting over and over). We all know what all the event shinies look like and we don’t need to post every single one that’s caught. Especially your “FIRST SHINY EVER” because by now, you either haven’t played Pokémon ever before or are straight up lying for internet points. The games almost 5 years old with nonstop events that have had some very high shiny odds throughout.Verifications here and there are fine of course with all the Niantic mess ups, but seeing a shiny Chansey 9 times from 9 different users before breakfast during an event where Chansey and it’s shiny are out and plentiful... that’s completely unnecessary.I’m an avid shiny hunter who works at a zoo, so I live around Pogo heaven and may be a little biased. But I’m not posting a screenshot of every single one I get because I have hundreds of them and will still get more...just like everyone here. And this sub isn’t here for you to show off your random shiny. via /r/pokemongo https://ift.tt/3dK1vOL
