The term "shiny" originates from Pokémon. It is a term used to describe a pokémon that is a completely different color from all others in their species. We have taken that idea and expanded it to include objects, plants, food, and people!

All color morphs are accepted providing they are atypical from the norm of that species, breed, or type.

Notice: This subreddit is not actively monitored, so the posts here are only a small subset of what exists on reddit.
