The thing is, generally speaking, Pokémon are designed to look visually appealing. If you have an extremely rare alternate colouration which looks more appealing than the original, it begs the question: why not just make the regular form more appealing instead? That's the one people are going to see most of the time anyway.
Obviously there are exceptions but in most cases, the best shinies are those which would under normal circumstances look "as good", but seem better as a result of their rarity.
Quick, salvage it with some fan art!

You'll need to reupload them elsewhere using a permitted image host...
Or perform a reverse image search and look for a source that is either (the original or a permitted reupload) and permits hotlinking.
90%+ of Shinies are shit and way worse looking than the original colourations. I would be completely in favour of a total redo of Shinies to actually produce different colour schemes that made you think "damn, glad I have it!".
I think a lot of them look great, even ones other people hate..
Some of my favorites:
I know people mostly don't like this thing, but I like shinies that are actually "shiny", as in just a brighter version of the original Pokemon.
Gotta love shiny metagross <3
I like the more simple shinies. Also red Gyarados and the 3 dogs.

lolI found what I was looking for!
I think 90% of the good ones are black and Blue. I really wish some of those were the default colors instead.Best shines hands down
Not including some of the onese already mentioned.
Apparently I really like that colour of blue.
You a chicken, don't be scared!Guys, I'm at Lavender Town in RBY. And then a GHOST tried to approach ne and got leery.

So I just came to say that I just got Pokemon Black Version 2 today. I got it used from Gamestop (which I REALLY regret because the game didn't come with a case and the back of it had sticker residue on it) because I really wanted to learn the gen 5 Pokemon before playing Pokemon X/Y later this year. So far I'm on the first gym and got my butt handed to me badly. I have 4 Pokemon currently and their all lvl 4-8, with my starter being lvl 13. The gym leader destroyed my 3 under levels with their first Pokemon and I got destroyed by their second one with my starter.
The designs for the first 5 new Pokemon I've seen aren't too bad but I still got a while to go before I can say if I like them or not.
It's pretty fun to be playing a new Pokemon game again since my last one was Diamond/Pearl/Platinum which was a while ago.
Good to see you are fixing that!
Can you really call moving on tothe worst generation yet "fixing it"?

Nah, you see, he's skipping Heart Gold/ Soul Silver.
:3
Gen 2? Eh to each their own lol
I believe credit is due for you not flipping out at that. Many would.
Does anyone have an extra Razor Claw?

Gen V is best for me because
A) Infinite TMs
and
B) The # of mandatory HMs is extremely low.
It's very hard for me to go back to earlier gens just because of those two things. :/ Oh, that and the text speed.
this makes me uncomfortable, two of my favorite things turn out to be oil and water
I can dig through my save files to check
What gen are you on? 5 or 4?
Edit: yeah I have one on heart gold if you want it
I'm on 5th gen.
Infinite TM's are great, I have to admit, I would have loved that in the earlier gens
Yeah, whenever I go back to a previous gen the lack of infinite TMs drives me crazy.
