Spot the Shiny

If you know the shiny by heart, trust your memory over the odd-one-out instinct.
How to use this page without spoiling the fun
The whole point of a daily Pokémon guessing game is that first "aha" moment, so we hide everything by default. Open one hint at a time and stop the second something clicks. If you only need a small push, the first hint for each game is deliberately vague: a region, a letter count, a starting letter. The answer reveal is always the last thing on each card.
Some games, like Higher or Lower and Spot the Fake Team Member, run for several rounds, so their reveal lists every round in order. Spot the Shiny is different: the real shiny sits in a random spot each time you load it, so we give you shiny-hunting tips instead of a fixed position.
