The monster-taming genre is one of the most popular, and Coromon is one of these games. It takes inspiration from the Pokémon series, including shiny versions. With shiny versions being in Coromon, you may be wondering if you can get a shiny starter in Coromon.
The answer is yes—you can get a shiny starter in Coromon. There are two different shiny versions, the Potent and Perfect version. Whether you get the standard version of one of the two shiny versions depends on your Coromon's potential. It may take some time and several resets if you want a shiny starter.

The best way to get a Potent or Perfect shiny version starter is to reset your game until you get one. Here is the best method for resetting your game to get a shiny starter in Coromon.
- Select Opt-in at the Reception counter.
- Save in the Coromon Lab before speaking with Professor Nelson.
- You can see if it is Potent or Perfect based on its sprite color.
- If not, select your starter and check its potential; it should read To Next: 100 / 24.
- Reset until you get one with a potential of 17 to 21.
Starting a game with a shiny starter is a great way to show off to your friends and form a deeper bond with your starter. Just be prepared to reset for a while, as it can take some time. Alternatively, you can get a starter with a potential of 16 or 20 and raise its potential to make it shiny with the Potentiflator. This will take it from standard to Potent or Potent to Perfect.
