Players of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet have noted the underwhelming Gholdengo Shiny and its one redeeming quality.
Prior to the Seasonal Event for the 2024 Pokemon Worlds Championships, players faced difficulty in obtaining a Shiny Gholdengo. However, the recent spotlight has revealed that the creature’s Shiny form appears lackluster when compared to others in Scarlet and Violet.
Many Scarlet and Violet players are struggling to distinguish between the two, as the difference is so minimal.
Underneath a post on Reddit that shared side-by-side images of Gholdengo and Shiny Gholdengo, someone made a humorous comment, saying, “It’s like night and… even later that night.”
At the same time, a different user inquired, “Is it actually different?”
Some additional individuals also joined in to express that the pictures gave them a sense of relief as they had not invested time in attempting to obtain the Shiny version.

The distinguishing feature of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet’s Shiny Gholdengo compared to its regular version is the substitution of silver accents for the usual gold embellishments. This difference is particularly evident upon closer examination of the lines on the creature’s eyes and torso.
Despite the fact that the upgraded design still has many flaws, various individuals in the Reddit comments pointed out that there is a “bright side.”
Upon receiving a humorous remark about a silver lining, a different user questioned, “So, was this [design] deliberately chosen for its pun?”
Although Gholdengo’s original form, Gimmighoul, may not be particularly impressive, its Shiny variant also has a rather unremarkable design with only subtle differences. The Shiny version appears to have a slightly lighter color than the standard Gimmighoul that can be encountered in the Paldea region.
During the current Seasonal Event for the 2024 Pokemon Worlds Championships, Trainers will have a better chance of adding a Shiny Gholdengo to their Pokedex. From now until August 22, players can participate in the event and have a small opportunity to encounter a Shiny Chest Form Gimmighoul in 5-Star Tera Raid Battles.
