Just Rattata and Hoothoot so far, but I'm hoping for a shiny Sentret or Nidoran next. =3
|
Re-started my Heartgold after leaving it alone for a while, was training Wooper after getting the 3rd gym badge and decided to do the Bug Contest, got myself a lvl13 shiny Pinsir! Well pleased! :) Was only the third pokemon to appear in the park too, and my first go at the contest in this play-through.
He looks bad-ass in blue :D lol Used a lvl10 Drowzee, maybe not the best choice by a mile but he done the job! This is only ever my second shiny pokemon that I can remember owning/catching since r/b/y and the second was an Onix on the save file I restarted to play the one I am now |
And another shiny again for me! My monotype runthroughs (bug atm) seem to be lucky for me. XD
http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/4/46/Spr_4h_241_s.png I was looking for a flying type so I could go to Cianwood again for more training and ran into this one. Was annoying to catch as it didn't want to stay in the ball and kept healing itself as well. |
The shiny pokemon I found were a Phanpy on Mt.Silver and a Geodude in the Dark Cave

I've never seen a shiny Pokemon in any of the games I've played. :( I've played all of them.
|
I only found a Shiny Magikarp in Blackthorn, within a month of the game's release.
|
Last month I started Soul Silver again and the most terribly thing happened to me :s
There I was on the tall grass right before Cherrygrove city and a Caterpie SHINY appears to me ..I had forgotten that I didn't have any poke-balls, so I fought it and left it with little HP, I clicked the poke-balls button and I saw no poke-balls.. I turned off my DS and have not played it untill today xDD |
While EV training on grimer in Celadon city, I found and caught a shiny grimer! Only my 3rd legit found shiny so far in SS.
|
after playing since original r/b/y I found my first shiny ever!!! an impish Tentacool.
<<does the happy dance>> |

|
I got a shiny Poliwag and a shiny Abra in SS.
|
first time through Viridian Forest, found a shiny caterpie. On a side note, I caught a shiny rattata on Dark Future. No hax for both, LOL. So lucky :]
|
I caught a shiny Miltank out of nowhere the other day.
|
http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/480d.png This little chap is still my one and only shiny :) (except the Red Gyarados of course but he doesn't really count)
|
Guess what... I found a shiny Gyrados! Oh my goodness I can't belive it :P!
|
yay shiny ohh no
i caught i shiny but its a unown why does my first shiny have to be weak like my brothers first shiny was a butterfree yet i cant find anymore shinys!
|
Quote:
And well I guess it's just a matter of luck. Mayb you can trade it for a better shiny if someone else wants it (and some collectors probably do), and it's better than say seeing a shiny Pokemon at the part of the game when you don't have any Pokeballs yet. =p |
Currently i have a Shinny Ho-oh and a shinny Ratatta
|
I got a shiny Bronzor a while back from my pokewalker. I was like :O and since then it's been one of my strongest pokemon on my team alongside with my shiny Umbreon, took me a while to get a shiny Evee :)

Really? Just that apparently having shiny Pokemon from the Pokewalker is supposedly really really rare... (something about only a few id numbers, some hidden in the game, matching lets you be able to find shiny Pokemon on it, and if you have those numbers you would also have a high chance to find shiny pokes via the pokewalker. The chance to have those numbers was something in the millions or greater? And the chance for a shiny Pokemon according to those who looked at coding was 1/32 if so - otherwise it was 0!) ...most interesting. Did you find any other shiny Pokemon on that Pokewalker, and could you post a picture? |
I just bumped into my second ever shiny (Red Gyarados not included of course) on my current Pearl Nuzlocke run.........
http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/399d.png hurr durr... Oh good. She wasn't the first Pokemon I saw on that Route so I won't be using her although I did catch her just because she's rare. |
I encountered a shiny mareep yesterday night while looking for a mareep to add to my team
soo cool, i almost killed it because i wasent paying attention xD but i caught it 8D |
I managed to catch a Shiny Rattata before in my old game file...
Haven't seen any in the new file. I'm kinda wondering if battling without the battle scene off could affect my chances of seeing a shiny... Hmm... |

I got a shiny Mudkip from Steven in Silph Co. :) i didn't even have to do any soft resets!:) My first ever shiny on S.S. ^-^ well other than the Gyarados of course, but it doesn't count to me because everyone gets one haha.:)
|

Anyways, I suggest seeing if you gt any more shiny Pokemon from your walker then and posting if you do get any more - it would be interesting if that coding can be confirmed or not after all. After all, a 1 in 32 chance for shiny Pokemon from the walker is something you should try to take advantage of. ;p |

I was playing my DS on the train. Randomly walking through some grass, as you do, and then one of these guys appears:
http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/5/59/Spr_4h_019_f_s.png BOOM! I wanted to yell it out, but I was on public transport so... >w< It's got a spot on my team for the time being, I called yer MapleFace xD |
Haven't found any so far, transferred some from Peal though...
|
Not my first, but some of my favourites are...
Charizard, Umbreon, and Shuckle, haha :D |
I just got my first real shiny in my heart gold version. While I was ev-training my Eruption heatran on the lake on route 35, I encountered a shiny psyduck. I caught it with a quick ball.
|
Just caught a shiny Oddish not too far into my new file in SS. Was looking for a Paras in the Ilex forest actually. Not sure if I wanna evolve into a Bellossom or Vileplume. :D
|
In HG i have about 4 Legit shinies they are
Yanmega Umbreon Espeon Metagross |
|
How many shinies have you caught/seen so far?
How many shinies have you caught/seen so far? I've seen 1 in my Japanese HeartGold, it was a Zubat. Evolved it to Golbat, then to Crobat and it is now lvl. 72. http://pokemondb.net/static/sprites/heartgold-soulsilver/shiny/zubat-m.png >http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/7/75/Spr_4h_042_m_s.png >http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/3/37/Spr_4d_169_s.png
|
well i caught two in heartgold....a raticate and a drowzee.....pretty crappy but i traded the raticate for a shiny ghastly and when i came across the drowzee i was so surprise to run into it that ima keep it forever....its pretty special....my second shiny...
|
Well I personally caught one a shiny drowzee, and my friend traded me a shiny arcanine that he caught in heart gold.
|
i saw a shiny ponyta. then i accidently killed it. then straight after that got away i found a shiny growlithe and caught it :D
|
Quote:
And hurrah for Pink crobat. =D |
I decided to play my sisters SS this morning (first time I've played Pokemon in a month or 2) because I was bored haha but anyways, I caught a Shiny Teddiursa inside Mt. Silver within like 2 mins of entering :D

I can't believe my luck. Within one week of finding my shiny Rattata:
http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/2/2c/Spr_4h_073_s.png Double BOOM! :D I was looking for a Mantine, but found something even more precious >:D I won't be using him in the team though ^^' He's a collectable. |
I was trying to hatch a female Snorunt for someone & since I had a Froslass in the day care center I figured out of 2 eggs one was bound to be female, so I got my 2 eggs and went to go hatch them. Low and behold the 2nd egg is female AND SHINY! I CANT BELIEVE I HATCHED A SHINY ON MY 2ND EGG. I have been trying forever to hatch a shiny Vulpix. I've gone through idk how many eggs and I get a diff shiny when I dont even try -_- I'm still excited. This is the first shiny I've ever hatched!
|
ARGH!
Ok, I don't know if anyone else has had this problem, but I have been quite frustrated as far as shinys are concerned. I have logged well 600+ hrs in my pokemon hg and I have yet to EVER see one. The only way I have ever obtained one was people making them for me. I want to make sure I'm not completely insane about this, but is it normal that I haven't seen a shiny yet? Also, I've tried to do the breed method. I've been breeding pokemon an easy 500+hrs of the 600+ with a Japanese Ditto and my pokes and have yet to ever seen one that way either. Am I just unlucky? Or just impatient, because my patience about it is wearing thin T_T

...but then again i caught three shinies in less than 4oo hours of gameplay so maybe i shouldn't be talkin...im pretty lucky |
caught the red Gyarados, obviously, and I kept resetting my game so I could have a shiny Lugia, it worked! I also got a shiny Ratatta, which I raised to level 100 and EV trained XD
|
I have two on my HeartGold, a Shiny Manectric and a Shiny Crobat, but both are traded in from a friend of mine who quit playing his Platinum.
Gonna soft reset for a shiny Kyogre though |
So far, i've caught a Shiny Sentret, Headbutted shiny Pineco, and found a Shiny tentacruel aswell!
i'd say i'm pretty lucky! |
Quote:
Given my luck, I'll end up running into a shiny Graveller who will promptly Selfdestruct before I can throw a ball at it. D: |
Can you guys rub your luck off on me, it's been very sad for me TuT I got my GF and I got HG and SS as a birthday present for her and me and she found a shiny weedle 16 minutes into game play ^^;; so yeah I'm being incredibly patient, I'm just trying to figure out why variables aren't working in my favor. As much as I want to blame my game =P I know I can't, it really all comes down to luck. All I have to say is whenever that little sucker shows up, I have my master ball I've been saving the whole game, for the one moment that shiny pokes its head out to catch and raise it all the way to the top!
|
After three years of playing Pokemon games, I found a shiny jigglypuff in the safari zone. I ended up catching it.
A few days later I saw a shiny clefairy; it got away. :( |
The only shiny I have ever found was a shiny meowth while I was training in the magnemite area. :I But my friend reeeaaaally wanted it so I just traded it to her oAo...
|
I have never found a shiny! Im keeping my master ball incase I find one! :)
|
2nd Shiny! (including red gyarados) a shiny psyduck!
|
Only Gyrados :) Does that count?
|
Working of Soft Resetting for a Shiny Porygon
50,000 coins ftw :3 This is gonna take a while :O |
Excluding Gyarados, I've never caught a legit shiny :(
|
Only shiny i found was a shiny caterpie on an emulator...
so none IRL yet |
I got a shiny mr.mime, in the freaking safari zone ;/
I tried catching it, but it fleed... never had a shiny before that - well yeah, the shiny gyarados, but really, that just doesn't count.- |
Ive only ever seen 2 Shinys in my own game and they were Noctowl and Sudowoodo, though this was back on the original Gold version. I caught them both though :)
It wasnt until I met the shiny garados, i realised what shinys were and that my Sudowoodo was one. lol |
OMG! BASHFUL Lv2 Shiny SENTRET!!
Hello everybody, for once, DJ91990 did NOT use cheat codes while playing Pokemon Heart Gold...so today...I was training my SENTRET and I ran into...a LEVEL 2 WILD SHINY SENTRET. I quickly switched to my lowest level Pokemon, CATERPIE Lv:4 and got its HP down to YELLOW. Then I threw my LAST POKEBALL at it. I jumped out of my seat when the capture was complete! I even recorded a video of the aftermath! (If this video will upload this year!) I will add the video to this post!

I remember when the shiny gyarados was first introduced in old gold/silver. I didn't know what shinies were so I was convinced it was an evil team rocket robot and that was why I could never catch it :I I was such a winner back then lol
|
Whilst leveling up my Gyarados at the base of Mt. Silver, I found a shiny ponyta! I was so ecstatic my dog came in the room real concerned. :DD
|
I was training one of my pokemon, I forget which, and I saw a shiny Tangela before I killed it and I captured it with a quick ball. My second legit shiny that isn't Gyarados. Darkrai doesn't count, although I did get it in a trade. XD
|
I run into some shinies... XD on random days...
Ran into a shiny Sentret Male on HG. He was Jolly so I trained him~ Then I began RNG-abusing for them. :P |
I have never saw a shiny through legit methods, except for Red Gyarados!
|
ive gotten alot of shinies on soul silver so far, i have an abra, a pacherisu and farfetch'd but then again i did medusa method for them, atleast i know i did with pachirisu and farfetch'd not really that sure with abra though.
but i did get the red gyradoes with a premier ball though :) other shinies ive gotten are a wingull while playing emerald and a rayquaza while also playing emerald but i soft reset for rayquaza. |
I have a shiny Hoothoot and Machop from SS. Machop was a Safari Zone catch, so naturally I was having heart attacks with every ball it broke out of.
|
i got a shiny Growlithe which is now an Arcanine then a week later i think i got an Onix witch is now a Steelix GJ FOR ME :D (also the first shiny I've ever gotten was a shiny Parasect in leaf green i traded it for a shiny Kyogre ands thats my history for shinies btw ive never ever soft reset fer anyone of them i tried the matsuda method but i failed D:
|
I found a shiny totodile in 21 resets yesterday.:)
|
i have never found a shiny poke but looking ive got 4 though one was garydos at lake of rage 3 of them from trades lol but still looking really want one though lol
|
I've encountered a shiny Geodude on Platinum on Route 207.
I've also encountered a shiny fearow but I cant remember which route. Another is a shiny ponyta on route 207. |
i dont care for most shiny's, and i get them all the time now practically give them away. in SS i EV train on Psyduck/Golduck, so the 1st shiny i have seen+caught was shiny Girl modest psyduck. in the pond thing rite above Goldenrodcity
|
I got a shiny Ekans on Route 33 in SS. Was quite happy that I even encountered a shiny at all to be honest, I never have any luck when it comes to shiny pokémon x_x
|
I found another shiny today just wandering around on the game, it was a Shiny pidgey on one of those noose routes.
|
I found a shiny Lugia, Ho-Oh, Mew, Garadyos, and I forget the others.
|
You used the soft reset technique, I presume?
|
This is probably off topic, but I really hate how hard they made it to obtain Shiny Pokémon on HG/SS :| I mean really, without the Pokétch it's so much harder. I found out about the Masuda Method though and have just obtained a Japanese Ditto with damn good IVs so that is at least a comfort!
That and I just found out about the RNG abuse thing. Where's the fun in that!? That pretty much guarantees a shiny as when you want, at least with the masuda method the chance is only reduced and it's still down to luck. Well I guess I can just chain on Platinum and trade them over. Also, to make this OT... I have a shiny Gyrados and a shiny Ekans. |
Just encountered a shiny Golbat in SS in Victory Road. I was able to catch it in in one Fast ball. It was my first Shiny in the 2nd generation remakes :)
|
Is there any kind of technique to get a shiny in SS/HG? Ive never seen/caught one before and i want to try and i need some advice on how to go about it. Thanks.

Oh how I am envious of you. |
My first shiny was a shiny Floatzel in the safari zone, I was able to throw eight safai ball before it fled. That was my first ever ingame shiny besides Gyarados.
|
I found a shiny Hoothoot, but I accidentally raped it with a critical hit Scratch x_x
|
Just found a shiny ditto while running back from Goldenrod to Ecruteak on my SS.

I got a shiny Bellsprout right before I entered the town for the first gym badge.

Got a shiny Ho-Oh. :D I'm so happy about it!

Found a shiny Rattata the other day.
|
In the middle of another shiny hunt on another game, I took a break to play HeartGold, and found a shiny Caterpie the day before my birthday. I had mixed feelings, though, because I really wanted that other shiny on that other game; when I first got the shiny Caterpie, I was angry at it, then I was happy about it about ten minutes later... and it kept switching like that. Coincidentally, just a moment before, I had been thinking about finding a shiny... That's the second time that that's happened to me.
I want to find a shiny on HG/SS that's better than just a Caterpie... xD I should probably go evolve it now... Depends on whether I want to keep its name GoldnTime(Heart) or rename it Mizuki... |
Well, I just started a new game on HG recently, and I wanted to get an eevee of a specific nature/gender (female, sassy btw). Because I spent so long SR for it, I hoped it could be shiny, it wasn't though, so I left and started to grind.
While grinding, I thought it would be funny to bump into a random shiny after all that SRing and not getting one. I then bumped into a shiny pidgey! And it evolves into one of the most epic shinies ever... http://tpmrpg.net/images/pokemon/ShinyPidgey.png http://pkmn.net/sprites/hgss/maleshiny/18.png |
i found a beedrill but i mistakly killed it (found it in the forest in kento)
didnt know earthquake will be super effected |
On the original gold silver and crystal I ran in to shiny meowth shiny sentret both with no pokeballs. When my dad played through crystal when I was 7 he found a shiny hoothoot before even getting pokeballs, and a shiny poneta when our power went out, he was playing it on the gamecube. I was determind not to do sutch things in hg/ss. but before I get there I must say I ran in to 2 shiny wishmers on emerald olmost consequtively! They were litterally 15 minutes apart 1 in nusterf tunnel and 1 in victory road. Now for hg/ss. Shiny Giredose odviosly
Shiny drousey not bad. Personal fave shiny LUGIA! I have more amazing stories to tell about shiny experiences, but there not right for this thred. Someone should make a Pokemon shiny gineral thred |
Omg i just found a shiny arbok in route 27
i cought it Nature: Naughty LV: 28 At: 60 Def:50 SpAt:47 SpDef:50 Speed:55 not bad dont you think :D |
Just snagged myself a shiny Yanma from Route 35. I was on my way to re-battle Arnie when I ran into it. It's my 4th total shiny in Soul Silver, the other 3 are Gyarados, Flygon, and Aggron
|
After I got my Shiny Snivy on Saturday, I started to hunt in my Soul Silver.
I am breeding a secret Pokemon in Soul Silver through the Masuda Method. I hatched 210 eggs yesterday, I want to hatch 90 today. |
got a shiny bellsprout on route 31 - not a big fan of bellsprout but I treasure the now shiny weepinbell =]
|
I'm planning a shiny Dratini hunt, but atm I have a shiny Flygon, Alakazam, Shinx, Lucario, Phanpy, and Squirtle.
|
I ran into a shiny Rattata the other day buut, here's the catch. I was pretty much multi-tasking with a chat on hand, eating a small snack and watching TV, while playing HG. XD; Not knowing one of the wild Rattata's I encountered was a shiny I killed it with one move and well, my reaction is self-explainable. I only found out it was shiny after I used the move too, so I guess I'll have to pay attention more for those random shinies. :(
http://pokemondb.net/static/sprites/heartgold-soulsilver/shiny/rattata-f.png |
Going through Ilex forest, a shiny oddish appears! Thankfully, I had a low level poke to lower it's hp. Too bad it was lonely in nature. :/
|
After doing 314 soft resets over the past week I got myself a shiny Squirtle from Prof. Oak.
