What legendaries can be found shiny by soft-reset?
What legendary Pokemon can be soft reset to farm for a shiny variant, and, in which games?
Example: If Groudon in Ruby can but cannot in Omega Ruby, make sure to tell.
One more thing, I do not care about the Game Boy Pokemon games legendaries, just because I can not get them to my newer games. You do not need to include any of them in your answer. I do care about Game Boy Advanced though.
According to Serebii, starting in Pokémon Black & White, the developers started instituting locks where Pokémon could be caught in a wild but prevented from being shiny. These locks are mostly done on the signature legendary Pokémon of the games, but do range further.
These Pokemon are:
- Victini, Reshiram and Zekrom in BW
- Reshiram and Zekrom in B2W2
- Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, Mewtwo, Xerneas, Yveltal and Zygarde in XY
- Kyogre, Groudon, Rayquaza and Deoxys in ORAS
