Your first Shiny?

My first shiny was a Psyduck! I caught it because it was blue, not because it was shiny. I then started a new game (I had no interest in shines long time ago). When I found out I had a SHINY Psyduck, I gave myself a huge facepalm. ><

First shiny I ever SAW was a Skorupi. Badass coloring. Unfortunately, it was in the Marsh Zone in Pt... If only I had thrown a Pokeball instead of some mud *sigh* BUT! I have redeemed myself, and my first shiny caught was a Gligar in one of B2's Hidden Grotto's. Got a shiny Espeon through GTS, though I don't really count that one.

I'm pretty sure my first shiny was in Diamond. I was running around in the tall grass near the Day-Care center and I randomly ran into a wild Ponyta. I thought the game was glitching at first because the flames on its body were blue. So I caught it. Don't have it anymore, though... I gave it to my best friend as a gift.

Mine was a Ghastly from Pearl that was just outside of the haunted estate. I was very surprised seeing as I don't hunt for them.

It was either the Red Gyarados on my Pokemon Silver or Ash's Noctowl (which I'm guessing would count here).

Shiny Geodude in Pearl. I later evolved it into a shiny Graveler. Never got a shiny Golem, though.

A shiny Tentacool was the first one I seen back in Pokemon Gold for Gameboy Color. But I didn't know when it shined it was rare at the time.

The first one I caught was Hippop in the Safari Zone in Heart Gold and then later before Black and White came out I got a Shiny Ponyta on Mount Silver.

My first shiny was a shiny Onix on Victory Road (Firered). It was weird that I encountered it again after I restarted the game through..
