    So you can get a shiny in any game, like Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, or any of the others?

    Yeah, and Leaf Green, Fire Red, Gold, Silver and Crystal

    Well, I am new, and this is my first post. I found a shiny wingull on my Ruby Version at 524:38(that is the same as my ID No., in case that is of any importance), and that is the only shiny I have. I reset that game though. Currently, I am training 5 pokemon to lvl 71 on my Emerald Version, training only against wild pokes, so I can see a shiny pokemon. On FR, I am soft resetting for a shiny squirtle. I really wish I had a lot more shiny pokemon, but I am grateful for the one I have.

    And are there any specific requirements I need to meet in order to become part of the Shiny Hunter's Club?

    I got a shiny Wingull on my Ruby Version, but I reset it, and I kept the shiny.

    I know someone who has 41 shiny pokemon, and I also know someone who had 53 shiny pokemon, and none of them were cheated.

    just that you're willing to look for shiny pokemon

    Hey, I have seen you at the SPPF forums! Hi!

    At the shiny hunters club, do I have to search for a shiny during any minute of gameplay. Like I can't just play the game and hope it comes up, I actually have to hunt for it. For example, I want a shiny Lotad, so I will stop playing the main story and only battle pokemon on the route it shows up on?

    I doubt that, I'd say just have a shiny & willing to search for shinies is good enough. I was searching for a shiny Rapidash or at least Ponyta but gave up but I'll go back again.

    DARKDESTINY, how many shinies you got!? I saw your sig, are they all in one game or from a few? You must have been lucky to find all them, unless you traded of course.

    In Emerald last night I was searching for skitties and it was like weird 'cuz I ran into a male skitty and then a SHINNY Phoochyena and then a female skitty right after.

    this Poochyena is actually the 2nd shiny pokemon I've obtained in my emerald
    version, the 1st is my Skarmory that I hatched.

    I saw a shiny pikachu in the safari one before, but it was dumb and ran off.
