    I love a lot of the Unova shinies. They're so pretty! I love that Amoonguss is a Master Ball, ha ha.

    I'm biased, Virizion is my favorite. But shiny Reshiram is fantastic as well, it's definitely my second favorite (it would probably be my favorite if it was available in gen 5); I'm so grateful it's obtainable in ORAS!
     
    I think the best Unova shiny is Zorua. To me the blue in his shiny looks mystical like a tribal ocher a shaman in a cave painted his face with. Not only is this my favorite gen 5 shiny but Zorua is one of my favorite shinies ever. He'd be in my top 5 with Shiny Milotic, shiny Rayquaza (regular or primal) , shiny Rapidash and shiny Mega Gardy.

    Back to strictly Unova i was pleasantly surprised by Gigalith's shiny. He's one of my favorite gen 5 Pokemon and I enjoyed seeing him turn into living treasure, its like turquoise being mined out of his back. I think the Haxorus line is also interesting, can't decide whether I prefer shiny Haxorus or Shiny Fraxure-- when in doubt add black to a dragon and all will be well :)

    Last but not least let's talk about shiny Scolipede. He looks even more poisonous with those neon markings. I just feel like I've taken a trip to the rainforests and have stumbled upon a tree covered with poison dart frogs and other exotic creatures when I see this shiny.
     
    I have never actually encountered or hatched a shiny in any Unova games, but I hope to get a Tepig and a Axew eventually via hatching :P
     
    Gigalith is one of my top shinies ever! I think the blue is such a fitting color and makes it look way better than the original
     
    It's true tbh @ an earlier point. Unova really is the best region as far as blue shinies go. In fact honestly I think the shinies in this gen are better than the two after it. I know everyone hated on 7 and 6 wasn't too popular lol
     
    Yup, this gen has a lot of cool, blue(-ish) shinies. I personally would like to hunt Tepig, Audino and Kyurem. Too bad Reshiram is shiny locked.
     
    My fave 5th Gen shiny probably has to be Chandelure, since I do love how great it looks with orange flames. I do have to give praise to Emboar as well for its blue flame.
