Besides obvious things like shinies and good Wonder Trades...

I frequently challenged my Chespin by having him take on my rival Serena's entire time by himself without using items. He was able to succeed most of the time, but failed during the final rival battle which mattered the most. When it turned out there was one last rival battle post story mode, I really wanted him to prove himself... and he did, but it was only because Pokemon Amie allowed him to dodge 2 supereffective attacks in a row. Probably the only time that I actually enjoyed getting hax entire story mode.

Although examples of the obvious things would be randomly hatching a shiny and receiving a Kee Berry and a few 5 IV good nature pokemon on WT.

One of my luckiest moments was when, well, I first started to play the game as soon as I got my copy of Pokemon X on release date. ;) Sounds maybe a bit too cliche, but then, all the nostalgia came back again and I haven't felt this way before back when I was a kid and Pokemon was "everything" back then :3

Also, I decided back in january last year, when Pokemon X/Y were announced and the starters were revealed, that I wanted to go with Fennekin, and I still stick with her! ^_^ i really wanted to have a shiny one as well, and after DAYS of hatching eggs, patience, perseverance and some luck, I was in absolute heaven when that cute little shiny Fennek appeared on my screen after hatching 458 Eggs! Now, it's one of my most trusted partners as a shiny Delphox! =^o^=

I will remember this moment forever... :3

When I encountered Yvetal in Pokemon Y, I didn't know when I could save and went straight into battle. I thought I would have trouble catching but I would try my best!!!... I just lowered its health down and caught it on my second great ball. Very lucky if you ask me.

Another lucky moment is when I received a level 63 Japanese Xerneas (even more lucky for me as I have Y version).

One of my happiest and luckiest moments is catching a shiny Luxio in Friend Safari. Finally, a shiny I will actually use in a team.

By the way, here is my proof, and Zorro is my male Zangoose (not related to this moment, but Zangoose is also another lucky moment for me), which I use for catching other Pokemon (with False Swipe)
Spoiler:


anyone curious - Zangoose was a special catch for me. Quick Story:

I would say that something really lucky that happened was that i was in the friend safari, and i was about to start shiny hunting in this friend safari and after 5 random encounters i got a shiny Luxio, which is evolved into a shiny Luxray now! this is even luckier to me because this was the pokemon out of the 3 that i wanted shiny and i got it!!

The fact I found and caught a shiny Remoraid exactly a week after I caught a shiny Clauncher. I was actually trying to look for another Pokemon when I fished up the Remoraid. It's odd that it's only halfway through the month and I already have 3 shinies in X.

Congratulations! I'm already jealous... I haven't encountered any shiny after 2 months, kind of sad.

Nintendo did a good job on the shiny rate for this game. Obtainable, but still requires a bit of work.

Yesterday I finally got a dragon safari with Dragonair in it (one of my top three that I was going for along with Ponyta and Eevee) and just a few minutes ago I was able to encounter a shiny Dragonair! When it popped up on the screen I was saying "Please be a girl! Please be a girl!" and it was!! I now have the shiny female Dragonair I've been dreaming of! ^_^

Also, earlier today I got a shiny stone from super training and used it to evolve one of my shiny female Minccinos into a shiny Cinccino! <3 Totally adorable!

In a battle against my friend, my last pokemon my Charizard Y, swept through his Greninja, mega Aggron and Dragonite with half HP. No clue how I did it, I was for sure I was done for.
