3rd Gen Your First Shiny

The 1st Shiny I ever cam across was on Emerald. You know what is was? YOU KNOW WHAT IT WAS? I GOT A FREAKIN' MAGIKARP!!!! Of ALL the Pokemon, the one shiny I find in the wild, is a MAGIKARP >_> The troll, it hurts.

2nd gen, Rattata. Caught the *****, :P

My first shiny. Wow, that takes me back... to a couple of hours ago. Yes, I caught my first shiny, literally a few hours before reading this thread. A beautiful little yellow Swablu on my way to Meteor Falls, like 2 others on this thread. Why is everyone going to Meteor Falls? Conspiracy... :paranoid:

Never had one. A total of 300 hours across the years AND NOT ONE SHINY!!!!!

Ahh, my first shiny.
Been playing Pokemon for years, and I found it while walking around on HeartGold.
It was a Rattata.
A freaking Rattata.
Hahaha, I was kinda pissed, but also, it was my first shiny, too.
But then I got a shiny Mudkip from Prof. Birch one time.
That was fun.

On Sapphire I caught a shiny Electrike. My gameboy died as I was saving. Corrupted file, dead shiny. :(

I caught a Shiny marill. Weeks later, as I was preparing to face the E4, my gba did the same thing and gave me a corrupt save. However, my game was able to recover my previous save! I got lucky I guess, and my shiny stayed alive...but then he died just recently because I lost my cartridge.

mine was a shiny barboach i caught on meteor falls. i loved it and still in my emerald game, now a whiscash..:D

I've never found a shiny in my Gen III games D: Though I did try and soft reset for a Shiny Torchic a long time ago, only recently did I find out that the RNG in it was broken so it was literally impossible to do so unless you were really lucky.

Female Mankey in firered, I was rather disappointed to be honest

1st and only non-legendary shiny was ponyta on fire red, quite happy when I caught a ponyta with blue flames.

my first saw was goldeen in safari zone in Emerald... when I was a kid. my stupidity didnt know what shiny is back then, i just saw a shining powder thingy, and i run. same i did to shiny wingull :(

I can said than I chosen one... My First Shiny is Shiny Regice. Yes... I found that in Pokemon Ruby. I was suprised that my first shiny been legendary Pokemon.

I still don't have any shinies in gen 3. The only shiny I've ever had is the shiny pichu I hatched in crystal last summer.

Mine was a shiny Oddish caught before i reacher fortree. :)

Shiny Tangela at Route 21 in FireRed, while I was traveling from Cinnabar Island to Pallet Town after defeating 7th gym. It was actually my first encounter of Pokémon on this route - and it was shiny :). I had good Pokémons, and I didn't wanted to risk fainting because of critical hit (I hate critical hits when catching wild Pokémons), so I simply poisoned it, and threw Ultra Balls. The second throw catched it. Too bad it was in ROM version, not on my actual cartridge, but still.

My first shiny was a poocheyena. At the time I didn't know what a shiny was so I knocked it out.

In the 3rd gen my first shiny was a red Zigzagoon <:

Shiny Spinda in Pokémon Ruby but I couldn't catch it cause I wasteted all my PokeBalls on a Skarmory I didn't even use :(
