ThePokémon-Franchise has existed for more than 28 years and has created an incredibly wide universe since then. The beginnings with the 151 pocket monsters in the Kanto region were much simpler compared to today. At the same time, there was still little predefined, which is why mistakes in production can turn out to be something completely different these days - just like a incorrectly colored Pokémon, which looks like his dazzling variant.

The Redditor and Pokémon-Fan Kissfan92 is looking at the Pokémon anime from the start and has noticed an inconsistency in a certain episode:

This can be seen in the picture:There are a lot of Pokémon on a farm. Among them are Rattfratz, Rattikarl, Fukano and Nidoran. This sight is at theAnime episode 67 of the first seasonWith the German title"Eternal rivals"to see.

The Nidoran - both male and female - are all Shinys.

Like the thread manufacturer in Kissfan92 later in theCommentsnoted, the first broadcast of the episode in Japan took place in October 1998. That is a little more than a year before the Japanese release of thein November 1999.

This plays a role in that Shiny-Pokémon was only officially introduced with the second generation of Pokémon. So if the people behind the anime have no secret knowledge in this direction, it must be a mistake when coloring the Nidoran. Coincidentally, this error hits the later Shiny coloring.

You can find out why Shiny-Pokémon theoretically exist in the first generation:

That is probably behind the Shiny error

Nidoran exists in a male and female variant. The two Pokémon differ both in their appearance and the later developments that they can do. Among them is the coloring, which turns different in both copies.

The dazzling variant of the two Nidoran then takes on the color of the other Pokémon-as in the image of the anime episode "Eternal Rivals". The male Nidoran took over the colors of the female Pokémon and vice versa.

The userCyan_ExponentHas the most catchy explanation for the phenomenon: Probably the person responsible had a bad day for coloring the Pokémon or was just tired and confused the colors of the two Nidoran. Since the Pokémon is quite similar, nobody noticed it before it was too late.

Perhaps Professor Eich is also committed to the Shiny hunt. In any case, we read this joking theory in another comment, this time from the userddogz95.

Shiny-Pokémon are currently in the latest expansion of The focus:

We will probably no longer get a explanation for the confusion of the Nidoran colors 27 years after the first broadcast of the said episode. Nevertheless, this coincidence is so delicious and specific for the two Pokémon that we wanted to share it with you.

That is why we are particularly looking forward to your observations:Have you ever noticed discrepancies in the Pokémon anime?
