Is Typhlosion Shiny-Locked?

Typhlosion's 7-Star Raid is Likely Shiny-Locked

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet SV - Typhlosion 7-Star Tera Raid Event

Typhlosion's 7-Star Raid will likely be Shiny-locked as it was with previous 7-Star Tera Raids.

You can still get a Shiny Typhlosion if you catch it in the raid, breed and hatch for a Shiny Cyndaquil, and evolve it, although it will not have the Mightiest Mark.

What are Shiny-Locked Pokemon?

Pokemon that Cannot Be Shiny

Shiny-Locked Pokemon are Pokemon that have been programmed to never be shiny. This is often done to special Pokemon, potentially to make their Shiny forms even rarer.

Shiny versions of Shiny-Locked Pokemon are typically only released through distributions or Mystery Gifts. We'll be sure to let you know if there are any Shiny Distributions going on!

7-Star Raid Event Encounters

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet SV - Black Crystal Tera Raid

Pokemon from 7-Star Raids, such as the Unrivaled Charizard and Unrivaled Cinderace, have been shiny-locked thus far.

You may consider delaying catching it and holding off until you encounter the shiny since you are only limited to one catch. This would be a mistake however as these raids are shiny locked.

You are however able to breed for a Shiny provided the raid boss is not in the Undiscovered Egg Group.

Starters from Director Clavell

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet - Gen 9 Starters

While many players may enjoy soft-resetting at the start of the game in the hopes of getting a Shiny starter, like in Pokemon Legends: Arceus before it, that will not be possible for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. The Sprigatito, Fuecoco, and Quaxly that accompany Director Clavell are programmed to never be shiny.

Story Encounter Pokemon

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet - Story Encounter Pokemon
Pokemon that you encounter in a story cutscene such as your first wild Pokemon encounter with Lechonk in Poco Path and the decoy Tatsugiri in Casseroya Lake are Shiny Locked.

Story Walkthrough

Titan Pokemon

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet - False Dragon Titan

The Titan Pokemon fought in the Path of Legends storyline are coded to not be Shiny. You can go back to the Titan's location and try to catch them, but if you're hoping for a Shiny, then it's best not to expect so.

However, while you will not get a shiny Titan Pokemon, you do have the chance to get it Shiny in its regular non-titan form in the wild.
