  • Caught a shiny Porygon about 45 minutes ago. Great IVs. Okay nature. I nicknamed it Cubix. I'm gonna EV train it, and then train it until lvl 60 instead of 50. Too bad I can't evolve it yet, I haven't beaten the e4 :( My next target is Latias on Ruby.

    I have three shiny Pokemon. I got a shiny Illumnise on Rt.117 in my Sapphire, a Makuhita at the cave in Dewford, and a Wurmple at Petalburg forest in Emerald. The Wurmple turned out to be a Dustox.

    If we are only allowed to talk about R/S/E shinies then I can't bring up Seel or Pidgey

    Anyway,the way I found my shinys were like this...
    Grumpig(Deepti);I was looking for a Spoink,but I couldn't find one. So,I was just about to give up...then a few minutes later I found her.

    Linoone(Angel);I was training my Cyndaquil,and then I found a shiny female Zigzagoon.

    Skitty(DanialBoon);I was looking for a Skitty and I was about to quit in 5 minutes...then by some kind of miracle, he appeared.

  • I think I just got the biggest stroke of luck ever. I saw a shiny Psyduck in Safari zone-and I actually caught it! This happened in my Sapphire after I had just reached the 500 play hours mark. It was my 2nd shiny in Sapphire, after Tentacool. (Two shinies and 500 hours? WTF?)

    Too bad that all shinies seem to have bad natures, Tentacool, now a Tentacruel, is Jolly, and Psyduck is Relaxed.

  • You guys do know we are only to discuss shinies from FR/LG, right?

    Anyways, I will hopefully get a shiny Latias from Ruby soon. When I do, I'll soft reset for a shiny Moltres. After Moltres, my next target will either be Mewtwo on FR, Latios on Sapphire AND Emerald, or Beldum on Ruby. I'm leaning towards Latios...heck, I may even try for it as soon as I get a shiny Latias!

    Best thing you can do for a beginning is to stop being stupid and posting everywhere senselessly.

    Secondly, it's all up to chance - 1 in 8000 or so, so really we can't help you, therefore rendering your entire postfest useless. Hope that explains it all.

    I found a shiny Graveler in the Magma Hideout in Emerald. It's such a shame they're not any different than the normal ones. How cool would is be to beat some kid speechless with a team of all shinies while linking? :]
