"[Megathread] List of currently available shinies"


#PokemonGO: Five days ago, u/rapidashme has asked whether anyone had recently caught a shiny Krabby; as nobody has been able to post proof of a shiny Krabby caught since November, the post gained a large visibility. The day after, reports of shiny Krabby caught in January began to appear.Yesterday, u/kryg89 raised the same question with respect to shiny Magnemite; again, nobody has been able to post proof of a shiny Magnemite caught since the first week of December.The general hypothesis is that there has been some kind of issue that has made already released shinies unavailable for a certain period of time, thus violating the previously accepted rule that, once a shiny is released, it remains available -- a rule that had always held except for some shiny evolutions, namely Nidorina, Nidoqueen and Gengar; in the case of Magnemite, its shiny might still be currently unavailable.After discovering that the mistake does not seem restricted to Krabby, several travelers have argued that it would be wise for us to double-check via a Megathread whether the issue affects other species as well (I would personally guess it does not but, you know, better safe than sorry); this is the goal of this post. Please, report any wild shiny you have caught since the start of the new year –- i.e. since January 1st 2019; do so by posting a screenshot showing the capture date. I will update this post compiling the list.A last disclaimer: I know that some travelers are still skeptic; if they haven't been convinced by previous posts on this issue, they won't be convinced by any findings we might make here. Unfortunately, nobody can prove a negative; however, not only the Silph Road is a pretty large community in and of itself, but both other subs and Twitter and Instagram and local Discord and Telegram groups have been canvassed in search for shiny Krabby. I think that it is sensible to acknowledge that for them to be entirely missing for a month and then reappear the day after the relevant post would be a pretty huge coincidence.Edit: for the sake of brevity, I will only update the post with the username and the screenshot of the first person reporting a given species, which should be enough -- however, feel free to add additional proofs; for the sake of completeness, I will include information about raids and eggs exclusive shinies as well.Edit 2: Aand, approximately 30 min. in, the post got removed!Edit 3: It appears we are back up and running folks; I'll go on compiling the list!​**LIST OF SHINIES CAUGHT SINCE JAN. 1 2019**:Aerodactyl (quest) -- u/Saint_Errant; http://bit.ly/2LX3D7r -- u/drfsupercenter; http://bit.ly/2shAWcA -- u/mizznox; http://bit.ly/2M2rfb2 -- personally caught; http://bit.ly/2shvAhb -- u/BKtrn; http://bit.ly/2LWaRJ1 (egg) -- u/InfernalGinger; http://bit.ly/2sfSw0f (currently unavailable due to the species being XMas-exclusive) -- personally caught; http://bit.ly/2LWDSnX -- u/GirlForward ; http://bit.ly/2siVcuk -- u/Alcenana; http://bit.ly/2M2OlOI -- u/toy1200; http://bit.ly/2sf0jvz -- u/Kruemelkacher; http://bit.ly/2M2rgvC (egg) -- u/BKtrn; http://bit.ly/2sjalLS (quest) -- u/woopwoopwoopwooop; http://bit.ly/2M0AiZG -- u/sfgmh; http://bit.ly/2sg9Gec -- u/astaten0; http://bit.ly/2LW7h1i -- personally caught; http://bit.ly/2seU8rf -- u/Alcenana; http://bit.ly/2LXA5Xm -- u/MrDarkCript ; http://bit.ly/2sh6gb9 -- u/BiscottiManicotti; http://bit.ly/2LXdDxC -- u/GirlForward; http://bit.ly/2sfSxBl -- u/Kruemelkacher; http://bit.ly/2LXJX3k (raid) -- u/Kruemelkacher; http://bit.ly/2spM2MJ -- u/ThoughtfulKoala; http://bit.ly/2LZ0LXM -- u/solarachel ; http://bit.ly/2shAWt6 -- u/ThoughtfulKoala; http://bit.ly/2M59UhH -- u/Kruemelkacher; http://bit.ly/2sh6hfd -- u/BrettMaverick; http://bit.ly/2LX3C3n F -- u/drfsupercenter; http://bit.ly/2sgv9DZ -- u/FreddoSavage; http://bit.ly/2M2rgM8 -- u/TheWildRile ; http://bit.ly/2sjam2o -- u/xF-99 ; http://bit.ly/2LWslVs -- u/WigsbyLittleMix; http://bit.ly/2sc7SDc -- u/phillypokego; http://bit.ly/2LWaSg3 -- u/ThoughtfulKoala; http://bit.ly/2sfIXys -- u/woopwoopwoopwooop; http://bit.ly/2LWZWi4 -- u/threnodynx; http://bit.ly/2sjanmY -- u/ThoughtfulKoala; http://bit.ly/2M0AkRi -- u/mizznox; http://bit.ly/2sh6hvJ -- u/FreddoSavage; http://bit.ly/2LZogA6 -- u/ziegy4me; http://bit.ly/2sjasqM -- u/Kruemelkacher; http://bit.ly/2LXJXjQ -- personally caught; http://bit.ly/2sfvFls -- u/FreddoSavage; http://bit.ly/2LZ0NPo -- u/HappyWeekender7; http://bit.ly/2sjaqza (quest) -- u/buttsac765 ; http://bit.ly/2LXcypA -- u/atmurauer12; http://bit.ly/2siVe5q (egg) -- u/SirGeno2525; http://bit.ly/2LXcwOu -- u/GirlForward; http://bit.ly/2shR1Pm (egg) -- u/corrieh; https://imgur.com/S3XEwxu?r​ via /r/TheSilphRoad http://bit.ly/2Fipx3N
