Knight Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Except Red Gyarados of course, and without the aid of a cheating device. I only have ever once encountered a legit shiny, it was after getting lost for hours in Meteor Falls on ye old Emerald, and I encountered a green Golbat. I am now so sad that I deleted that file.

Anacybele Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Oh yes, several. Shiny Aron and shiny Nincada in Emerald, though I only caught the former. The latter was the first shiny I ever saw, so I didn't know how valuable they were back then, lol. Then there's shiny Rattata in FireRed, shiny Kricketune in Platinum, shiny Zubat in HeartGold, and shiny Tentacool in SoulSilver. I caught all of those except that last one. I was out of Pokeballs when I ran into the Tentacool. >.> Lastly, shiny Vullaby in Black. I caught that one as well. Haven't encountered a shiny since, though I haven't played any Pokemon in awhile.

BrandedCharmer93 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I saw a shiny tangela that I accidentally killed :( I will forever wish to have one. I ran into a shiny Starly on a Nuzlocke run, so I decided to screw the rules and catch it (I ended up deleting the file anyway, after trading the shiny to a different game) I managed to get a shiny Tentacool :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Shiny Rhyhorn in Victory Road, shiny Shellder in one of the ports, both in Silver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight Posted April 8, 2013 Author Share Posted April 8, 2013 Everyone's much luckier than I, never again have I seen a shiny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nayr Farros Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Once, I think. As memory serves, it was an insect pokemon, first evolution(cocooned.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karasz Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I caught a Shiny Starly in Platinum, and a friend of mine gave me a Shiny Squirtle...though I have no knowledge of whether or not the latter was hacked or not. It seems legit, though. But that's the extent of all the Shinies I've legitimately acquired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Komeiji Koishi Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I remember that my friend had a shiny Altaria in his Black, it looked pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freohr Datia Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 (edited) I have not ;~; But I got Pokerus, which I looked up to find out is less likely than shiny encounters ;~; Edited April 8, 2013 by Freohr Datia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kon Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 My most recent shiny was on my Platinum Nuzlocke, a female Adamant Gligar named Maka. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunshineYON Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I've come across two shiny pokemon. One was KO'd, and the other one was traded for something that was actually useful. So brave. No one said they were useful. Hell, they're trophies more than anything... and trophies are not very useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redturtle806 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Once I found a Shiny Geodude in soul silver. I threw an ultra ball at it, it almost caught it, and then the geodude used explode.... Fuck you geodude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DancingDanny Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 (edited) I have found a shiny Ponyta in HeartGold, and a shiny Ferroseed in Black! :) I was sooooo happy to have finally found one! xD Edited April 8, 2013 by DancingDanny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emeraldfox Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 (edited) Shiny Tentacool in Crystal Shiny Zubat in Ruby Shiny Haunter and a Shiny Spearow in Leaf Green All were caught, but I don't have them anymore. Obvious for the Tentacool, and the Zubat, Haunter and Spearow(which I evolved to a Fearow) are gone because I caught them waaay before Gen IV was announced. As in I never sent them to another gen III game when I started a new advrnture. Luuuuuuul Edited April 8, 2013 by Leafeon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadowofchaos Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 3rd Gen: FireRed. I encountered a Shiny Rattata outside Pallet Town... before you even had Pokeballs. And when I didn't know what a shiny Pokemon was. I laughed so hard after I found out the odds of finding one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
