  • So, found any shinies recently in B2/W2? If so, let us know here! Did they escape your grasp? Run out of Ultra Balls? Or did you catch it on your first attempt?
    I guess the closest I've been is... I haven't. Still no shinies in B2/W2 for me, but I'll keep looking! :)

    Well, I got a Shiny Lillipup in my Black 2 and a Shiny Litwick in my White 2.
    The Shiny Lillipup was found real early...Flocessy Ranch to be exact.
    The Litwick was found post-game in Celestial Tower...I think. I just went to have a little look-see and found it.

XD on a side note my first shiny was a shiny Ralts in pokemon emerald after looking for one for about half an hour (because wally had one and I was like O_O ooh..pretteh) so whenI caught one I named him Galaxy! ever since I've had a pokemon called Galaxy in my game!

    I caught a Shiny Azurill while I was doing... something! I don't remember why I was in the area with Azurill is but I found it and happily caught it. It doesn't have a good nature with it's ability being Huge Power but I don't care. It's my first and only shiny for fifth generation and is now a shiny Azumarill.

    other then the shiny haxorus and and gible already programmed no. I have found one in every game except black 2( not counting the ones i mentioned) and fire red. I have done over 4,000 encounters to find one but no luck. I am going to find one i hope by looking. I am going to search till i find one. I hope it doesn't go over 20,000 encounters.

    FOund my first shiny ever a couple weeks ago. Caught a shiny shellmet. Found a trusty friend to trade me and I got a Accelgor. Looks really sick but i stopped using it since it doesnt hit as hard as i would like, even after Ev training.

    Regards, Chris

    Actually, during my very first play-through, I caught a shiny Vanillish! c:
    He became an epic part of my team, to. <3 after that, I haven't found anything. :c

  • I found my first fifth-gen-game shiny in the middle of the main story in my White 2 (in the Relic Passage, entered from the PWT side): a golden Onix I named Aurum (periodic table name for gold; I want to say it's Latin). But alas, I didn't add it to my team because I'd have too many common weaknesses.

  • Haven't come across any in black 2, did once in white but didn't catch(Shiny stoutland, honestly), and I caught one in pearl(OH YEAH GREEN FEAROW). But I guess this is just abut black and white 2, so no, haven't come across any or caught any.

  • I did have a shiny Hypno, but I traded it for another Pokémon in the GTS (and before you say anything... it's my choice). Besides, I have another Hypno which has better stats and nature than the shiny one.

    So, as of now, I do not have any shiny Pokémon in my possession. I am planning to get the Shiny Charm once I complete the National Pokédex, even if it may seem to be a difficult task. It'll take a lot of migrating and transferring from one generation to another, but it's worth a shot if I were to get that key item.
