In Black, I came across a shiny Boldore one day in Victory Road. I caught and evolved it. It looks so awesome as a Gilgalith! :D

I have yet to come across any wild shinies in my Black 2.

I haven't come across a shiny in Black 2 yet, but in my White 2 version I came across a shiny Drifblim while training and caught it.
Then the very next day in the same area found a shiny lunatone and caught it.
xD
I've traded for a few shinies though, but those are the only two I've found and caught on my own.

Not encountered any shiny in Black 2 yet :( (I've only ever had 2, I caught a tentacool, one of my least favourite pokemon and I was traded a shiny Eevee in Diamond). But I'm still hopeful!

My Shiny Rattata... in Castelia Sewers. With Hugh as your partner. Exactly where Hugh KOed a Shiny Rattata on my friend's Black 2 run-through. I feel blessed.

I've got the shiny Gible that Benga gives you in Black 2. I also have a shiny Gyarados transferred from Soulsilver, and a hacked shiny Regirock I got from some random guy. (Don't ask)

I am currently using the Masuda Method to try and get me a shiny Golett. I'm breeding a Japanese Ditto with a Golurk from my game. Still no luck, unfortunately, but I'm hoping for that 1 in 1000-ish chance.

I got the shiny Dratini that Benga gives you in White 2, green Dragonite is way suckier than orange Dragonite, but eh, it's a Shiny!
I also found a wild Boldore that I trade back and forth with my friend so it would turn into a SHINY GIGALITH!

I found a shiny Sigilyph as well! Except it used whirlwind...

My only shiny was a shiny Audino in Black 2. I was just going about on one of my normal mass Audino hunting sessions when suddenly PURPLEAUDINOMGOMGOMG. <3

I haven't seen a wild shiny Pokemon in any of my games since Sapphire, years ago =/ I don't really have the patience to actually go looking but I guess it's just not going to happen.

Also, what happens if you find a Shiny in a Double Wild Battle? You're screwed, right lol since you can't catch Pokemon in a Double Battle.

You can. You just have to defeat the non-shiny Pokémon, then you're free to catch the shiny.

Does anyone have a shiny Growlithe they are looking to trade?
Someone in the Trade Corner might have one. I personally have only two of my own from the wild, those being Nincada and Audino. Everything else of mine is Event or Trade, and no Growlithe.

I've caught 3 non-programmed shinies so far in white 2! My first two were amoonguss and lunatone which I weren't too thrilled about... but I just got absol and it makes up for two not exciting (for me, sorry if you like them!) shinies as it's one of my favorite pokemon. ^___^;

I've been playing Pokemon since Red/Blue and I don't think I've ever found one shiny haha. The only ones I've ever had were traded/made for me.

So nope, nothing in W2/B2

In Black 2 and White 2, I have not run into any shinies, but in Black 2, I traded for both a shiny Audino and a shiny Pawinard, both female.
