My worst luck with shinies has come in FireRed, as the two that I found, I wasn't able to catch.
The first one was a shiny Paras in the Safari Zone. I was fooling around earlier on by tossing Safari Balls at every Pokemon I could find, and eventually made my way down to 1, while also having just one step left on my timer. Lo and behold, a shiny Paras shows up, and in fear of it fleeing, I tossed my last Safari Ball at it right away. It shook twice, broke free, and then my Safari game ended. The other time was when I came across a shiny Weedle. Well, I didn't come across it- the old man in Viridian did. I just had to sit there and watch while he caught it.
While I'm not a big fan of either Weedle or Paras, I still would've much rather had them than have them show up under those circumstances.
