Boss Parasect Confused with Shiny

By Kalaster1
- 09 Aug 2013 17:55 #66860 So I was recording a Pixelmon episode for Youtube, when I came across a very large Parasect, that was oddly colored. There was no name tag, so I immediately thought it was a shiny, and I freaked out. Sadly though, I was trying to get back to my death point to reclaim my items, so I had nothing to catch it with, and when I got my stuff and returned, it was gone. This wouldn't be considered a bug, but more of something to change. What I mean is to raise the name tags a little higher for certain big pokemon, or to make the name tag visible through pokemon, so that we don't confuse certain boss pokemon for shinies.

Also, don't forget that there is now an option in the config file to change nameplate render distances too! That will help out with telling the difference from a distance.
