Hello!
If I remember correctly, a shiny would be gifted every 4 years on the site, and it was said that those who missed out during the first 4 years would get it at their next.

I recently completed 8 Years and could only collect one shiny at This Link. It has gone back to the default message of 'We're sorry, but there is no gift
waiting for you...'
I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if I'm only meant to collect one at the moment.

I did search the forums and came across an article that mentioned an exploit to collect as many shinies as possible if the account was 4+ years old. My guess has been it was suspended because of that.

You can only claim one Anniversary Gift each year, so if your account is 8+ years old, you'll get to claim another shiny one next year.

Oh, I assumed I’ll be able to claim 2 this year. That clears that up. Thank you!
