Simple - if it sparkles when it enters battle, it's shiny. No sparkles, no shiny. Keep those eyes peeled!

Spotting a shiny Pokemon in Scarlet is like finding a needle in a haystack, but way cooler. You'll know it's shiny because the Pokemon will sparkle with stars around it when it appears in battle. Plus, shiny Pokemon have different color schemes than their regular counterparts, making them stand out. So, if you see sparkles and a Pokémon that's not its usual color, congrats, you've found a shiny!

Actually caught a shiny the other day! Wasn't even looking, just popped up with sparkles and a color I didn't recognize. So yeah, definitely the sparkles and odd color are what you're looking for.
