SV: Why no shiny sprites or sparkles in the wild?

Trying to find shiny pokemon in boxes is a chore. Not seeing the shiny sprite in your inventory is obnoxious…I earned them, let me see the cool color palette man. Straight up lazy programming to leave this out.

And don’t get me started on the lack of Alphas smh. Arceus mechanics and graphics were better…I miss that feeling of the environment actually being dangerous and now it’s hard to go back to the old gameplay style.

SV is still a great game, but it could have been 5x better with Arceus graphics and open world mechanics.

    In your boxes the only thing I'd say you can do is make boxes for only shinies, you can also name the shinies with random nicknames like Cotton for Mareep or Clover for Petilil.

    It's better to be organized in your boxes so you know where Competitive pokemon are vs the pokemon you built for raids.

    For a game franchise built around collecting things, it sure is lacking when it comes to displaying and organizing your collection.
