Shiny Pokemon
 
Have you ever saw a shiny pokemon and what was it?

I saw a shiny paras in mt moon on Leaf green, not the best of pokemon to be shiny but i caught it anyway.

Charizard EX August 28th, 2008 12:42 AM

For 50 times I played Pokemon, I never saw a shiny pokemon but when I was looking for a Staryu in Emerald at Lilycove shore, A shiny Wailmer appeared!

Banjora Marxvile August 28th, 2008 12:44 AM

I was really unlucky. In the Battle Pike in Emerald, I went through a wrong door and it was a room with wild pokemon. In the Pike, you can't catch pokemon, so what did I encounter? A shiny Dusclops

Angelic Diablo August 28th, 2008 1:25 AM

My first shiny pokemon was a Spheal in Ruby, I didn't even realise it was shiny I just thought it was cute so I caught it.

Go my now Stallrein (evolved on D/P so it has Ice Body)

That same file (Ruby) I also got a shiny Wingull

M O M U S U August 28th, 2008 9:09 AM

The first and only shiny Pokemon I've ever seen was a Weedle.

What a waste.

Totod!le August 28th, 2008 9:44 AM

The only random encounter shiny I ever found on R/S/E/FR/LG was an Exeggcute on LG when I was looking for a Kangaskhan.

Skaterzpenguin August 28th, 2008 12:47 PM

Oh gosh I probably caught at least 4 shinies in firered or leafgreen and like 3 of them in sapphire version and 1 in emerald. I guess i'm lucky expecially with my shiny charmander! XD

hothead August 28th, 2008 2:11 PM

My first ever one was a marill in emerald it was green and i was like how cute so i caught it

Braeden23000 August 28th, 2008 2:29 PM

The only shiny i ever saw was in Emerald in meteor falls, a shiny zubat, I would have caught it, but i hate zubat and his evos, even shiny ones.

I've encountered two shiny Pokemon in my Advance Generation games; the first being a Zubat in a tunnel in my Firered version. Naturally, I was devastated to find out I had no Poke Balls left. The second time I ran into a shiny Pokemon was in my Leafgreen version. I was fishing for a Krabby up where you used to be able to find Missingno. with the Blue and Red versions and I started battling a silver Staryu. Thankfully, I caught the shiny that time and it now resides in my Diamond version.

Ouch, thats got to sucks. A while ago I caught a shiny Sandshrew on my Sapphire version.

Lee Jin Tyz August 28th, 2008 5:44 PM

ha all of you are lucky i have never seen a shiny pokemon im my entire life of pokemon gaming. its just my unfortuante luck

MM_Zero August 28th, 2008 5:46 PM

In firered, I found a shiny ponyta on my way back from catching moltres, which is now a rapidash in my pearl. I also saw a shiny shellder in crystal while training through fishing, but my only ultra ball failed >=(.

pm_41 August 28th, 2008 7:45 PM

I once found a Shiny Onix in LeafGreen. However, I was out of PokeBalls... :(

Ramengan August 28th, 2008 10:13 PM

In FR, I caught a shiny Rattata really early in the game. I've insisted that it remain on my main team simply because of that. :D
My friend recently caught a shiny Pidgey in his FR.

All of the other shinies I've found are in Gold, but eh.


Shinies are pretty much the reason I always stock up on ridiculous amounts of Pokeballs, no matter where I am in the game.

Shiny August 29th, 2008 1:59 AM

I've seen afew in my time; I've seen: Manetric, Sharpedo, Tailow, Butterfree & Cascoon

Braeden23000 August 29th, 2008 12:01 PM

I just found a shiny shuppet a few minutes ago, it used curse and killed itself, i was so mad...

Arrmegedden August 29th, 2008 12:13 PM

I found 3.

Sapphire . Oddish -_-

leafgreen. Pigey -_-

Ruby . wingul :)

Why whenever i find shineys its always the weak ones.

Peach●Pit August 29th, 2008 12:20 PM

I only ever found a shiny in Gold, it was a shiny sentret. XD

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ August 29th, 2008 6:40 PM

In Leaf Green I came across a Shiny Muk and captured it. I still haven't Pal Park'd it over to Pearl and I'm debating whether to do so.

(Dusty<3) August 29th, 2008 7:03 PM

I found a cute greenish Kingler not too long ago! (Am I weird for thinkig that they are cute? o.o )
AND I found a shiny Ralts in Emerald, shiny Dusclops in Ruby, and a shiny Feebas in Saphire. Now it is a shiny Gardevoir and Milotic!
<3

.emerald August 29th, 2008 7:14 PM

I saw 7 shiny Pokemon in my whole,entire gaming Pokemon career.
SR'd Kecleon(Emerald)
Shiny Poocheyena(Emerald)
Shiny Tentacool(Emerald)
Shiny Poliwag(Fire Red)
Shiny Geodude(Red)
Shiny Starly(Diamond)
SR'd Chimchar(Diamond)

I guess its by luck...

shiney hunter August 29th, 2008 8:17 PM

i just caught a shiney ralts today. =)

iRawr-x August 29th, 2008 10:19 PM

Well, In LeafGreen.. I don't quite remember but I think my first one was a .. Shiny Pikachu.
and..
I got my shiny Mewtwo. =D

Shiun Enshidia August 30th, 2008 3:44 AM

Lemme See...
Leaf Green: I came across a Shiny Oynx in Victory Road. Caught it, got out of Victory Road, saved and the file corrupted to the point just before. So I lost it.

I came across a Shiny Pidgey as well on Three Island I think. Had ONE Ultra Ball left, caught it
I came across a Shiny Ditto while looking for Suicine of a friends Fire Red. We lost it

In D/P I've found a Rattata and Pachirisu shiny by Pokeradin'.
Plus the Shiny Gyrados. So...6 in total, 3 of which i caught. One of which I can't find (I can't find my LG) so I'm stuck with 2. Interestingly, never found one on my Sapphire, on second playthrough now.

~DarkAchu~ August 30th, 2008 3:48 AM

My first shiny encounter was a shiny carvana, i didnt catch it becuase i didnt need a water type lol, my second and last was shiny charmander when i kept starting my game over and over again lol

BlueEew August 30th, 2008 6:41 AM

Never ever found a shiny on my Sapphire, 2 copies of Ruby, 3 copies of FireRed, LeafGreen, or Emerald. Actually I have two copies of Diamond, and one Pearl and I haven't found on on them either.

The only legit shiny I have ever got was Gyarados from Gold, Silver, and Crystal.

Me too but on FR, I later evolved it now its a red exeguttor.

Tinhead Bruce August 30th, 2008 7:10 AM

I played emerald ALL the way through 4 times and never once got a shiny. I didn't even know shinies existed until I joined PC

But I did get a shiny noctowl once in Diamond with the pokeradar

shiney hunter August 30th, 2008 7:15 AM

the only two shinies i ever caught were the garydos from g/s/c and a ralts i caught yesterday in sapphire =D.

Duuuarte August 30th, 2008 8:29 AM

i've been playing pokemon sice RB were released, and i have never ever ecountered one.

Edit: Unless you count the shiny garydos in g/s/c

Tinhead Bruce August 30th, 2008 8:36 AM

That's right! There was the gyarados in g/s/c. Funny; I have it right next to me, and yet I haven't played it in years. I really need to start playing it again.

HalcyonXIII August 30th, 2008 8:54 PM

Shiny Hariyama in Ruby(Whirlwinded me), and Shiny Registeel in Sapphire.
I SRed for the Registeel, but it was still a random 1/8192 encounter anyways. My luck in 3rd gen games has been terribly sucky :c

Braeden23000 August 30th, 2008 10:31 PM

A shiny slugma appeared! :D

EDIT - My first caught shiny, i caught with a great ball!

Dratii August 31st, 2008 1:48 AM

I have only ever found a shiny hoppit. Which was black and looked weird.

Dark Sakurati August 31st, 2008 2:25 AM

In Emerald or it might of been Sapphire anyways In the safari zone I found a shiny oddish it was a darker greenish colour (look liked it was dieing) I tried to catch him but he got away oh well doesent matter it's just 1 little oddish .</p>
I've got loads of shinys here is a list of them:
-CHARIZARD -BLACK -FIRE RED
-BLASTOSE -LIGHT BLUE GREEN SHELL -LEAF GREEN
-GROUNDON -GOLDEN -EMERALD
-KYORGE -PINK -RUBY
-RAYQAUZA -BLACK -EMERALD
-ARNOTH -CAN'T REMEMBER -EMERALD
-LILEEP -CAN'T REMEMBER -EMERALD
-DITTO -BLUE -EMERALD
-MANY MORE...... -MORE MORE MORE!
I caught those all, cool huh yeah well it took a long time.
Starters I got at the begining of Fire Red and Leaf green.


bye bye

Shen August 31st, 2008 3:02 AM

I have :

A shiny Pikachu from FR which became part of my main team (I didn't even notice it was a shiny till my friend saw it as a Raichu...I really should've guessed what those stars meant).
A shiny Psyduck from FR (blue Psyduck ftw)
TWO shiny Oddish from FR (traded one)
A shiny Growlithe from Pearl (I was SO happy about this)
and a shiny Slowbro from a friend.
I think I may have more, but that's all I can remember...

Guitar God in Training August 31st, 2008 12:03 PM

Gamehacker64, it's kind of ironic that you've got more legit random encounter shinies than most people on here :D

First shiny I ever found was a pidgey on Silver.. before getting my first pokeballs.

In 3rd Gen I got
Whismur in Ruby
Magneton and Ghastly in Fire Red
Bannette and Rayquaza in Emerald

The Magneton is now gone since I deleted the save file to start over.
So far Sapphire and Pearl have not given me any shinies and apart from Rayquaza, my shinies don't look much different than the normal ones and have terrible natures.

Penumbra August 31st, 2008 12:17 PM

LOL THAT SUCKS. AHAH BEFORE FIRST POKEBALLS. (Above)

Only one in FR. I was training my newly evolved clefable and I thought "great another common spearow. Oh well, i'm about to level up" and then a little sparkle. Caught within a few seconds..

It's now in my Pokemon Ranch fluttering about as a fearow. The PokeRadar ignored me and didn't do it's job. Through GTS I got some hacked shnies. Shiny Swampert over different forums + Shiny charizard. Kinda funny how I got the charizard.

I was uberly bored and I hated my weak charizard, so I traded it over wi-fi and wanted a level 50+. I come back, level 50 shiny charizard. gwah gwah gwah!11!

Blazers August 31st, 2008 1:16 PM

I have encountered a few shinies

1st one was Pokemon Gold version; Zubat
2nd Pokemon Ruby; Wurmple
3rd Pokemon Ruby; Whishmur
4th Pokemon Ruby; Numel

Lynnx August 31st, 2008 2:21 PM

I've only encountered one wild shiny, which was a male, LV 19 Goldeen in the Safari Zone. I threw a ball at it, but it ran on the first turn. D:

Dark Mystery August 31st, 2008 2:23 PM

My first shiny pokemon was a shiny tangela, then a shiny spinda, and then a shiny latias and then i saved my game in front of shaymin and kept restarting until it was shiny!

Duskfall September 1st, 2008 4:58 PM

It was in Pokemon LeafGreen. I had a Masterball on me, saving it for Suicune. I'm on Two Island, saving Lostelle. She says there's a scary Pokemon, and a lvl30 Hypno jumps out. Guess what? It's freakin' pink!

I neraly jumped out of the chair. After that, I just chucked a Masterball at it and imported it to Diamond ASAP.

varial295 September 1st, 2008 6:20 PM

onl shiny i ever got was a ryhorn wich was red but went to orange when it evolved it was in leaf green my first game on the sevii islands i was amazed

bubblewrap September 1st, 2008 7:24 PM

I found a shiny in my friends Pearl while pointlessly running around. Blue Ponyta! I quickly traded it to my Diamond and she still doesn't know to this day.:P

Oh, Yeah! And that Red Gyarados from G/S/C!

Evilyn September 2nd, 2008 6:25 AM

Yeah, I saw a Shiny Sandshrew in that ashy area in Emerald. I didn't catch it though 'cause I didn't have any Pokéballs with me :l
Now I have always atleast 100 Pokéballs with me XD

Meadow September 7th, 2008 6:40 AM

In FR I found a shiny Venonat.

True Justice September 7th, 2008 6:48 AM

In LeafGreen, I found a shiny Caterpie while searching for Entei above Cerulean. It took two Ultra Balls to catch. The next day, while training that shiny Caterpie (now a Buterfree) in Victory Road, I run into a shiny Geodude. I couldn't decide whether to use Stun Spore to prevent it from Self-Destructing or throw an Ultra Ball. So I chucked an Ultra Ball and I caught it.

More recently in Sapphire, I soft resetted for 2 hours and got a shiny Mudkip.

elmo534 September 12th, 2008 10:56 AM

i have never found one in over 200 hours of gameplay:/ bummer

Once caught a shiny Weezing and a shiny Unown (L) on the same day. Also caught every Unown that day... That was a good day for me ^_^

Conor September 12th, 2008 12:41 PM

I saw a shiny bellsprout today but i killed it by accident lol (n)

e-MeR September 12th, 2008 1:42 PM

Shiny Beedrill I caught.I was happy at that time. ^^

Kozoi September 12th, 2008 2:28 PM

I've never had a shiny because i epicly fail.

Tanooki September 12th, 2008 7:50 PM

I have about... ZERO shiny Pokemon. Aren't I cool? xD

To be honest, I very rarely ever see them, so it amazes me how people manage to catch about 10-20 of them, when I think I've seen about maybe five in my entire life. The last one I've caught was a shiny Phanpy in Silver version. Yeah, it's been that long. =P

Ehwick September 13th, 2008 10:23 PM

Ahh the first time I ever played A pokemon game that had shiny's was in emerald so I started to just train my mudkip and then I found a Ralts and I checked to see what it was on serebii and read that it was a psychc pokemon and I noticed there was two different colors of him and I had the blue one and thought it was cool so I caught it. Ive never seen another one...

pokemon9901 September 13th, 2008 10:58 PM

I came across a shiny Rayquaza in Emerald and now it is in Diamond...and i also came across an shiny starly (which is staraptor now) in diamond...

MoogleTime September 14th, 2008 5:21 PM

a tentacool, horrible

mrpwnageisme September 15th, 2008 5:24 PM

ok i got a sjhiny raquaza on ruby i was doing the raguaza event and wen i battled it was shiny lucky me

ChamsRock September 17th, 2008 1:14 PM

My only shiny was... a Magikarp the first time I played Silver. The bad thing is, It was level 29 when I encountered the red Gyrados in Lake of Rage. I fail horribly.

PKDante September 17th, 2008 3:55 PM

I found a Shiny abra in Gold version

All the rest were on ruby:
2 shiny whismur,
Shiny Electrike
Shiny Zubat and shiny Golbat which I found in back to back fights!

I chained on Diamond and got 2 shiny Ditto from the chain, then my game froze and I lost them :(

Shiny September 18th, 2008 2:47 AM

I caught a shiny Ghastly last week

Asday September 20th, 2008 5:29 PM

I don't have friends, so I've seen as many shinies as I've caught.

1.

A Zubat on FireRed. Not evolving, gonna get one of each pokémon, shiny and normal. Ain't going well, so far. Kinda hampered by the huge unpopularity of pokémon over here, and aforementioned lack of friends, but I'll get by.

Luck September 20th, 2008 6:01 PM

i remember seeing 4 shiny pokemon(excluding gyarados in gold).

1:ruby
I was playing my brothers ruby and i encountered a shiny wurmple.
I was excited, so i caught it.

2:ruby(same one)
I was searching the route with the day care for half an hour for a volbeat, when a shiny roselia just popped up on me.

3:firered(rom)
I was searching for a larvitar in sevault canyon when a shiny marowak revealed itself.I caught it because it was glorious in its lizard green skin.

4:firered
My friend was playing his Firered when he came upon a shiny tentacool.
sadly, he had no pokeballs so i got really angry at him.

Thats about all. I had more, but they were on hacks.
I'll post when i have more shinies.

twilight guardian September 20th, 2008 6:46 PM

The very first shiny I encountered was a purple Wurmple (lol)in Sapphire. Unfortunately the batteries were dieing so at the time I had started a temporary file until the batteries died and was battling pokemon before my battle with Ruby/Brandon. I had to kill it.

After that, I caught a shiny Zangoose. I also have a Shiny Onyx that I got on DP from a trade. I also have a shiny Crobat from a Zubat. I actually have 2 if you count the one on my XP game. But that one is green and not black for some strange reason.

EvilMuffinKate September 20th, 2008 8:06 PM

I've only seen/caught 2.

1.) Tentacool/LVL. 5
2.) Magikarp/LVL. 10

:/ how disappointing

FinalMaster September 20th, 2008 9:37 PM

The only shiny I have ever seen was a Tentacool. I caught it and now it's a shiny Tentacruel at a level somewhere above 40. (I found him in my ruby version)

mischief4545 September 21st, 2008 8:34 AM

The only shiny I ever caught was a medicham in victory road on ruby..........
wish I had a shiny kyogre.......

Annuhh5 September 21st, 2008 10:07 PM

I've had a few but m most recent one was a few days ago, I caught a shiny Zigzagoon
:)

Mikau1 September 22nd, 2008 1:39 AM

ive seen a shiny zubat in gold. it wasnt great but still caught it.

BeelzemontZero September 23rd, 2008 8:25 PM

we found Shiny Ponyta in FireRead,forget where we exaclty find it

lordbahamut September 23rd, 2008 8:51 PM

I saw a shiny Ekans once and caught it, thought it was in Silver version. I don't remember seeing a shiny pokémon in the GBA versions. I guess I was just unlucky. *shrugs*

Ehwick September 23rd, 2008 11:19 PM

About 20 minutes ago I caught a shiny Abra while searching for my Latios I used my Masterball and now catching Latios will be alot harder.... but hey I love Abras..

Zaia Katora September 24th, 2008 4:43 AM

I have seen and captured a shiny Chansey, a shiny Fearow, and a shiny Horsea (it's a Seadra now).

You don't have to play for hundreds of hours, you just need to be extremely lucky.
The only shiny Pokemon I've encountered that wasn't preset to be shiny was a Shiny Swablu I caught in Pokemon Emerald.

Lith September 28th, 2008 1:36 AM

Ive had a large share of shinys in my games...
In D/P/Pt Ive used other means....chaining and such...
In Emerald 2 (I have 2,see?) I have about 5 shinys...
From the top of my head they are...Luvdisc (Orange), Gyradose (Red), oddish (Fully green) and....hmm...

Goku GT September 28th, 2008 1:48 AM

i found the same...I was confused at first why it was colored funny but looked it up.

Now i'm sad i only found a sentret...hopefully I find something a little cooler through the games

Suzume September 29th, 2008 10:17 AM

I've only found shinies in my Silver, even though I have played Crystal the longest. I was just lucky in Silver, but now the internal battery has died so I don't have any shinies anymore... The two shinies I found in Silver were Drowzee (purple) and Rhyhorn. (almost same color?) I didn't train them or anything, but it was cool to have them. :P

ChibiVamp September 30th, 2008 5:00 AM

i caught a shiny tentacool and a shiny oddish in ruby. the bellosom i evolved was super-cute :D

Sirrush October 1st, 2008 5:43 PM

i've played the games plenty in my time and the only shiny i have ever found is the one u always get in G/S/C lol

my lil brother bought his gold used though and when he got it it had a shiny murkrow on it.

that's it though.

don't own Fr/Lg, Emerald or D/P :/

Daniel A. October 1st, 2008 5:58 PM

In Pokemon D/P, I saw a shiny meditite out of randomness and thought it was a cool glitch so I caught it..

True Reign October 1st, 2008 7:47 PM

Now that I think about it, I remember that I saw a shiny Wurmple in Emerald, but accidently fainted it. I didn't want it anyways.. Just wanted to catch it because my friend wanted it (at the time we were both playing at his house, so we were looking over each others shoulders to see everything we were doing).

Ehwick October 1st, 2008 8:06 PM

W00t!! Yes I just hatched a Shiny Smeargle.

~Azure- October 2nd, 2008 12:31 AM

well here it goes:

RSE:
Poochyena (friends game) caught it! (Pal Parked to my Diamond)
Houdour (friends game) ran O.o
1st Battle Shiny Poochyena no pokeballs...

~Edit~
Wish i had a shiny Houndour...
Go to my Thread if you want to trade for it

Bonzai-Cat October 4th, 2008 9:23 AM

Ruby, I caught a Blue Numel

and in Cerulian Cave I caught a Bronze Machoke in Leaf Green

EvilMuffinKate October 4th, 2008 9:44 AM

Well I just caught a Shiny Duskull ^___^

pumpkinziggy October 4th, 2008 1:30 PM

The first shiny I ever encountered was a shiny Poochyena on Emerald. However, I was about 8 back then, and didn't know what a shiny Pokemon was, or its value. So, I restarted the file. ;_;
The next one was about a year later, when I encountered a shiny Bellsprout on LeafGreen, east of Celadon. I caught it, since I had learned about shinies now, but I can't seem to find it. Maybe I deleted the file... I just don't know.
Then, a year ago, I found a shiny Sandshrew on the same game, west of Cerulean City. I have now migrated it to Diamond, and plan to evolve it.
In August, I was playing Diamond, chaining Tauros, and on the third Tauros, I found a shiny patch. Then I encountered a shiny Tauros. I caught him, and named him Lemon-Lime, after his colors.
Only a month later, I was EV training my Gible, randomly encountering wild Pokemon, when I found a shiny Shinx. I caught her and named her Nefertiti. :)
That's it! I'll probably post again when I find another shiny Pokemon.
Right now, I'm aiming for a shiny Pidgey, Zigzagoon, or Surskit on Diamond. Too bad they only come in swarms...

.Iramet October 4th, 2008 1:37 PM

Yeah the first ever shiny I encountered was in pokemon crystal, it was a rhyhorn, but when I was young I had no idea about shinies so I thought I was seeing things when it sparkled, and I ran, I found out about this a few weeks ago and was devastated.
:/
