ShinyPokes is an unofficial fan made tool. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or associated with Nintendo, Game Freak or The Pokemon Company. Pokemon and Pokemon character names are their trademarks. The app contains no assets from any Pokemon game. ShinyPokes is a shiny hunting tracker. It counts your encounters, keeps your timers honest, logs every shiny you find and gives you one place to look back on all of them. Free, no ads, made by one person who hunts shinies too. WHAT IT DOES Hunt counter. Pick the Pokemon, the game and the method, and the app checks the combination is actually possible before you start. Count with a tap, watch the timer, and see your odds update as you go. Run up to four hunts at once in multi hunt. Put a hunt on hold and pick it up later. Shiny found. When it happens, log the catch with the ball, the gender, marks and a nickname. The hunt moves to your collection and your Shiny Dex fills in. Collection. Every shiny you have caught, with the game, the encounters and the time it took. Edit them, log past catches you found before the app, import a list, and share a card for each one. Shiny Dex. All 1025 Pokemon, with the ones you own lit up. Dex and Living Dex views. Locations. Where a Pokemon shows up in each game, and where the items are. Gen 1 shiny check. Enter the stats from a Generation 1 catch and see whether it will be shiny when it comes forward. Hunter levels. Encounters give a little XP, shinies give a lot. Your level shows as a border around your avatar. Turn it off if you would rather not. Community. A feed of recent finds, live hunts happening right now, leaderboards, community stats and a chat with channels for hunting, trades and showing off. Community events like the Bank Run, where you fill a bingo card of shinies before the old transfer service closes. Notifications. A mention in chat or a reply to your message reaches your phone. Same account everywhere. Sign in with Apple, Google, Discord or an emailed link. Everything you track in the app is on shinypokes.com too, and the other way round.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ShinyPokes at none against MMORPG's 8. ShinyPokes also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 6 months) and review sentiment (100% vs 82%). MMORPG's advantage is ratings volume (266 vs 7) and rating (4.6 vs 4.4). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. MMORPG sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. ShinyPokes asks for nothing beyond the download.
MMORPG holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MMORPG has 266 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of MMORPG's written reviews are positive against 100% of ShinyPokes's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
MMORPG ships an update every 6 months, ShinyPokes every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
