  • I got a Larvesta in a trade once before I actually got the egg in-game. Then I bred it, hopefully to get one with the opposite gender. Surprisingly enough when I hatched it, it turned out to be a shiny. Funny thing though, the guy who traded it to me had been matsuda methoding a shiny Larvesta for quite some time now.

  • Just my shiny oshawott...Which is now a Samurott. I would love to get a shiny Eevee/Umbreon, Munchlax/Snorlax, or Trapinch/Vibrava/Flygon. Right now I'm SRing for Bulbasaur and the lvl. 75 Volcarona- which might be a good trade pokemon for one of the other shinys I want. Has anyone else SRed for Volcarona??

    I found my first shiny in Black a while ago, just a Lillipup. I caught it, and now want to go after a shiny Kyurem, but i sidelined it. Not sure if I should go back to Cobalion or try to SR Kyurem, decisions decisions.

    Hey I recently caught a shiny Litwick! That was my second shiny encounter in my life so I was very happy. And I happen to really like Chandelure's shiny version so I'm planning on training it. I also really love Reuniclus' shiny, one of my favs.

  • I've got quite a few, but none are caught by me.
    My favorites are Deoxy and Uxie and Treecko.

  • I haven't seen any so far and I'm already on route 10. But maybe someday, though I'm not sure if I'd recognize one even if I did see *laugh*

    But I think the shiny Purrloin looks pretty good! As well as Litwick.

    Recently caught my first shiny Pokemon in the Black&White series (shiny Boldore), after months of game-play.

    I've recorder it and uploaded it to youtube, but unfortunately i'm not allowed to post links to other 'sites' until i reached 15 posts.

    If you'd like to see the video, search on youtube Pokemon White Shiny Boldore , and select the video of the user snowkids12345 (thats my account), or PM me and i'll send you the link!

    Just letting you know that this thread hasn't been posted in for over a month and about a week but since it was once a pretty active thread in the past, and considering that the death was only recent, I'm going to keep it open (posting here just so we don't receive reports).

    For next time, have a look at when the thread was last posted in, if it's been over a month then you're free to remake it and if not, then yeah it's fine.

    Trust me, if you're paying attention to the game, you will notice. :P It wouldn't be surprising if you got through the entire game without seeing any shinies, that's what happened with me.

    My boyfriend went out and caught a shiny Axew and trained it up to be a shiny Haxorus. So cool looking @-@

  • A while back, I was leveling up my Zweilous by battling Audinos, and I ran into a shiny one. My boyfriend was sitting in front of me, and I accidentally kicked him when I found it. xD

    Wow nice. :P I always thought I'd run into a shiny Audino eventually, since they seem to love appearing the most in the shaking grass for me. That still has yet to happen for me though. Congrats on the find!

  • Lost a shiny Lillipup the other day. :/ Started a new game, and right after your mom gives you the running shoes, I encountered it. Even with 2 pokeballs, I was unable to catch it; I was too afraid to weaken it even further.

    That one stung for awhile. :disappoin

    Thank god shiny pokemon sparkle during battle, or else you wouldn't fricken know if you got a shiny Tynamo!

    BTW, encounter ratio for him, non shiny is 1:12.5.. Easily the hardest to get shiny, or one of the hardest atleast..

    I have found two shiny pokemon since I started playing White. I have a shiny Blitzle, and have also found a shiny Durant. I don't really care about either of them, but having them isn't so bad. I plan on just trading them for other pokemon I may want.

    Archeops will always be the best shiny sprite in B/W. His normal sprite looks like it was bleached a little and lost its color.

    And sadly no; i have not seen ONE shiny yet. I feel like as the generations go on, it gets harder and harder to find em...
