Shiny Pokemon

[Samboelrod]

Ahh...shiny Pokemon! What a wonder to behold! Talk about the LEGIT shiny Pokemon that you caught here.

I caught 3 on my White. My first one was a Pidove. I was training my baby Smeargle in the double grass on Route 3 when out came a Blitzle and a Shiny Pidove. I was like OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My second one was a Boldore. I was wandering around in Challenger's cave when I was thinking about catching another shiny Pokemon. Ironically, a Shiny Boldore appeared a few seconds later.
My third one was a Krabby. I was trying to fish for a Clamperl with a good nature on Route 4, but Krabby and Luvdisc also appear there too. I'd let my rod go, and it came back with a yellow Krabby!

first was a shiny charmander. i was so happy. I also had a charmander as starter in Fire red
2nd was a shiny magikarp. I felt like it is so boring but then i realized that how dangerous it looks after it evolves. so i caught it.
3rd was a kanghaskhan. He was my first pokemon to be caught in a master ball as my party was having low health. # of them were in Fire Red
4th was in Gold a shiny ditto. oh my god a shiny ditto. but i learned how do it by seeing a site.

The only shiny I ever found in-game was an Oddish in Emerald.
I thought something was wrong with my game (I was so young and dumb), so I reset my game.
The first shinies I legally obtained were the Gamestop legendary beasts, which I accidentally deleted when I reset my White DX
At the moment, I only have Gamestop shiny Suicune, because Judge Dredd is an amazing person.

Where to start?

First Shiny capture ever? A Zubat. It was in emerald (I forgot the name of the location: It was the place where you saw the good-guy team for the first time in Ruby/Sapphire). I really didn't KNOW what was going on, but I saw the sparkle, thought it was important, and managed to catch it without KOing it. I am lucky I did. I traded it away to someone, though. The Shiny Pichu event was the next legitimate Shiny I got, followed by the Gamestop Shiny Beasts. Then followed a Nuzlocke-Ruining Shiny Audino, the first Shiny capture since the Zubat (I had a theme on PE2K usernames as Pokémon Nicknames, so I named it after someone I know called Necros). I also got traded a Shiny Corsola once. Then there were the prizes for the Terrifying Trivia Trial (as I was the only one that participated,) both legitimate: A Shiny Deino and a Shiny Latios...And that's it, really. So, in total, Nine legit Shinies.

Ive killed a few natural shinies out of stupidity, but I have captured a shiny Dugtrio and shiny Graveler in my Sinnoh travels. The first shiny I ever encountered was a Numel in my Ruby, but I KOed it before I considered The value of it,. In fact, when I first fought I just thought the coloring was off and it was some sort of glitch. Oh how I regret it.

My first Shiny was a Rhyhorn in FireRed in the Safari Zone. My second shiny was in Platinum, I chained a Starly. Also in Firered I caught a Shiny Tentacool. My next Shiny was a Rayquaza in Sapphire. Then in HeartGold I was extremely lucky. A Spearow, Onix, and Zangoose(In the Safari Zone.) My most recent shiny was in White where I a got a Sandile.
I think that covers all of them. They are all legit.

First shiny was a Shiny Gyarados in Gold. xD Only caught it because I liked the shiny animation. I didn;t even know what a shiny was for a long time after.

In HG, I saw a shiny Stantler in the Safari Zone, but it fled before I could catch it. :(

A few playthroughs later, I SRed for a Shiny Ho-Oh and a Shiny Lugia. Got both! Took like, 89373248934895 years. -_-

In White, I saw a shiny Minccino on Route 5, but it was a double battle, both female Minccino, and I got confused and KOed the wrong one. DX

In White forest, I met a Shiny Mareep and caught it. :D

In B2, I found a shiny Golduck as my first encounter on Route 22.

[Obliveon]

Sadly my only shinies are the Gyrados in SS and the shiny Dratini than Benga gives you in W2 for beating the White Treehollow.

[Latio-Nytro]

Oh, I forgot about the Red Gyarados! I caught that guy (actually a gal), too, in HG at least. I caught it again on the second playthrough, too, that thing is BEAST. I failed in the original Silver. That makes it ten I've found. Silly me, forgetting. :P

I feel like this shows exactly how 3/4 of us feel in this thread.
