Why do people have Shiny Victini?

I’m pretty sure it is shiny locked, but I see a lot of Shiny Victinis. Are they hacked?

Victini has never been given out shiny, and every event since Gen V has either been shinylocked or guaranteed shiny, so yes, it is impossible to get shiny Victini without hacking.

Yes, they are hacked since shiny Victini has never been released in any country, plus it’s shiny locked, as you mentioned.

all those shiny victini you see could be hacked… or could be from wondertrade. take for example, pokenursery. he gives out shiny locked Pokemon like shiny meloetta and shiny victini. that’s the path i’m going for. and these lucky people won a shiny victini from wondertrade

Actually all of you are incorrect. Fact check please and don’t assume. You can obtain a shiny Victini in Black/White legit. Shiny locks didn’t happen until gen 6 so all current shiny locked Pokémon are available IF they are in another game before gen 6. So Yvetal and Xerneas are shiny locked and cannot be obtained unless there is an event, however Victini, Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza and Deoxys just to name a few, are all shiny hunt able in older games.
