The only shiny I ever caught was a butterfree, which of course I was playing my cousin's game to help him with something at the time, so it wasn't even mine to have.
The only shiny I've seen in the wild was the first Pidove I ran into playing Black and White. But because it was the FIRST I'd seen, I assumed that the shiny color was it's normal color and then I killed it. I have a shiny Feraligatr I got from a friend as a Totodile, as well as a shiny Charmander that I gave to a friend
Since I got my camera on hand earlier I snapped a picture of those shinies I had in my cards.
Only one I ever caught was a Psyduck in the Safari Zone in Platinum.
I haven't really told how i got my shinies.
Well,i find out about breeding so out of pure boredom,i sent my two gyarados(Lv.55-ish at the time) to get funky.The result were two eggs,first time was a normal but the second time was a shiny and i freaked the hell out.
Weeks later,I was walking on some grass in BAM,Shiny Budew (which evolves to my fav Roserade)
The only shiny I encountered was when I was a kid and I thought the game was glitching.
My friend was watching me and his eyes were filled with so much rage when I just ran away.
First shiny I found was a Slugma in FireRed.
Second was a Poochyena in Sapphire, but I found it in the beginning of the game before you could get Poke Balls. That gut-wrenching feeling was awful lol
the first (and only) shiny i ever got was a shiny geodude in Diamond, I was levelling up in Mt. Coronet. I caught it but I have only just realised that i reset all of my pokemon games and decided to go on a marathon to complete them all before x and y come out >.<
it's gone forever
^That's why I ALWAYS trade my bestest mons to my friend for holding while I get to a part in my new run that allows trading again.
my first was pikachu i find the most common shiny
My first shiny that I remember was a Red Gyarados. I looked for it and caught it because I wanted to breed it with my storyline red Gyarados (saw one before that one, accidentally killed it) so I could get a golden Magikarp. Unfortunately they never bred with each other.
I also remember a shiny wooper, poliwag, growlithe, gloom, and I think a totodile as well back on Silver. I would go back and check, but some #*&^!@&*^$*#^!*%@*&^*$ stole our gameboys and games back when I was in grade 6 or 7.
Since then, the only other shiny pokemon I have seen is a shiny Espeon in the battle tower.
I have a Chansey on Gold or Silver (I have the two games) , I love him... or her, but maybe it's dead now, because of the battery and all. I really need to try the game to take a picture of it (but I moved from my parents'home so I don't have it with me), even if this shiney is no more, it will be forever in my heart! A shiney Chansey, it's really something!
I have a few starters too.
And a Zangoose on Ruby! Story: I spent months trying to find a Spinda shiney, gave up, go to the town at the left then went down the road... And there is was!
Oh and a Pikachu on Y, first day. Then I stopped the game a few days later.
I really liked the Shiny Gyarados from Lake of Rage, if that counts. And I'm trying to breed shinies in Pokemon X and Y.
I called the shine Gyarados I caught from Lake of Rage RedCyclone.
Also, I mentioned this in the general Pokémon thread but I randomly caught two shinies in a day when I was leveling up my mons, a Tentacool and a Geodude, now named T-Cool and Nugget.
