Welcome to my most consistent source of video game dopamine for the past fourteen years. That Gen IV Diamond/Pearl shiny patch just never loses its zing. Footage recorded via Nintendo DS Capture Board; edited with ScreenToGif.

Let's see how many shinies we can chain tonight in Pokémon Platinum. We can do this, Team Quick!

I AM SO SO LUCKY AND SO HAPPY HOLY SHIT! I’ve been doing Poke Radar Chaining today for the first time and after having so many chains break I started yet another new one and on the SECOND ENCOUNTER THIS APPEARS?! That chance was ridiculously small OMG!!!??! Plus Buizel is a favourite pokemon of mine!

Side-by-side comparison of daytime shiny patches in Pokémon Diamond (top) and Pokémon Platinum (bottom).

Diamond/Pearl patches are always brighter and more eye-catching to me, especially at night -- but the outward pop of Platinum patches does make them easier to see on routes with rough weather.

Both have their advantages! Do you have a favorite?
