Just watch for the sparkles when the Pokémon appears. If it sparkles, congrats, it's shiny! No sparkles, no party.

Easiest way? Shiny Pokémon sparkle a lot! When you encounter a shiny in the wild or start a battle, you'll see shiny sparkles around them. It's like the game throwing a mini-party for your rare find. Also, shiny Pokémon have a different color than their regular counterparts, so if a Pokémon looks unusual in terms of color, you might have stumbled upon a shiny!

Honestly, telling a shiny apart is all about the sparkle. I caught my first shiny in Violet totally by accident. It was just a different colored Sprigatito than usual, and then BAM, sparkles everywhere. So, keep your eyes peeled for that glittery animation.
