What are all the shiny quests in Legends Arceus?

Question

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Like, quests with shiny Pokémon for rewards, or about shiny Pokémon

Comments

The only gift Pokemon in the game besides your starter is an Alolan variant, and they are shiny locked.

(Hide was an oops, misclicked)

@Baron, there’s literally a shiny ponyta quest

---

I never specified gifts ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

---

You said rewards, and usually rewards in Pokemon are gifts of some kind. I haven't played the game yet so idk all the major differences

You may be the owner of the site, but you’re still required to provide a source and not answer if you aren’t 100% sure, sir.

---

I've read that you're supposed to show a "special" Ponyta to complete the quest? Though I don't have any knowledge about in-game so I'm not going in depth or anything.

---

Yeah the “special” ponyta is a shiny ponyta. You get told there’s a weird ponyta in the wild, and you’re asked to bring it back. It’s a shiny and you get to keep it

---

Did you just close a Pokemaster answer? He would know if an answer is acceptable or not

---

Yes I did, because he wasn’t certain about his answer “as far as I know”, and he didn’t have any sources. Which, is low quality, and thus is against the rules.

---

Uh… my source is I read through every quest in the game…
I’ve reposted my answer with better wording.

Answer 1

After reading through all the quest text in the game, there is only one that mentions a shiny Pokemon, "A Peculiar Ponyta". You can get the quest around mid-game, I'd say.

But there are other ways to encounter shiny Pokemon such as getting the Shiny Charm and getting mass outbreaks which increase the chances.

Aye, that’s better. Thanks!
