Oh something like that happened to me in Gold. I found a shiny Rattata and hadn't got PokeBalls yet. :(

Lucky you all, I have NEVER EVER encountered ANY Shiny Pokemon. Not once. Not at all. :( Though I'm trying to obtain a Shiny Sandshrew via breeding, it's the best I can do. :3

I've bred quite a few Pokemon, mostly just multiples of my six main Pokemon (to compare stats and such), but also for some trade requests back in the days when I still could get on wi-fi...
Haven't done any in over a year, though.

I once found shinies. One of the most awkward moments was when I was EV training I believe was a Mareep back in Pearl and found a shiny Bidoof. I had to look twice to make sure it was shiny, since I saw sparkles, and they're hard to tell apart. I didn't know whether to run away or catch it, so I caught it. I don't know what happened to it after that though. :P

I only found one.
I was playing HeartGold, and a shiny Golbat showed up while I was training in Victory Road.

Just as much as any other part of the game controls a gamer :o There's nothing wrong with working hard towards a shiny, it's an accomplishment that you can show to other people and tell them about the odds and how hard you worked for it. I don't see shiny-searching as any different from IV breeding or EV training or Pokedex Completion, lol.

Probably because it's less thought than the others, more just tedium.
I like it because I don't like to just focus on one thing at once, so I can breed Lapras while I'm on my computer and doing other things, lol. What's so unsettling about it?
