The only shiny that I've gotten that wasn't the Gyarados or some kind of Wi-Fi event was a shiny Ponyta. I was super excited since I was grinding in Mt. Silver (?) in HeartGold to beat Red and bored out of mind... when bam! Shiny Ponyta. I leveled it up to make it a Rapidash, and then put it in my box to hoard forever. xD
I also got a couple other non-hacked shinies from kind people on the Internet (mainly for helping them transfer Pokemon or something), but that Ponyta's the only one I caught myself, so it has a special place in my Poke-heart.

I have picked up a few in my extensive time at the Pokemons. The most recent one i got was a lilipup. Before that I gathered a bidew, a geodude, a ponyta and the haxorus you can catch in the nature reserve in white 2. The first one I got was geodude, I almost had a heart attack when I saw it. Thank god I was way higher in level than it. 1 ultra ball and it was mine :3.

My first shiny was a noctowl in Crystal. It was glorious and led me to shiny victory against the dull elite four.
Currently I have these shinies: (I can guarantee all I did not trade for are legit which is all but the Latias if I remember right)
Suicune, Raikou, Entei, Latias, Golduck, Clefable, Shellder, Graveler, x2 Gyarados of rage.
I guess I am just lucky.

First shiny I ever saw was a Scyther in the Battle Tower. ._.
The first one I actually caught was a Hoothoot.

My first shiny I ever saw was a shiny pidgey. Never caught it though. I also believe I found a shiny Pikachu.

I've always wanted a shiny Manetric. But all I have is a shiny Illumise.

I think my first was that red Gyrados. Now I have around 80(20 since Feb) because they're RNG abused.
Gotta love that RNG Abuse

i've never caught a shiny that wasn't from an event or plot driven but i think a shiny ponyta is just adorable.
I have gotten Pokerus in every single pokemon game it was in... first time that happened i freaked out and though i had some crazy buggy game...

Eh, I still prefer to just catch one only if I happen to stumble upon one. Because of this the shiny Skarmory I have is all the more shinier to me.
