I loved the gene system they used in the metallic games.. I wish they still used the same gene-->shiny system in the 3rd/4th gen games. >.>

Gene System O.O! TELL ME MOAH!!!

A shiny Golbat, which evolved into a shiny Crobat. I'll never forget it. <3. Also, shiny Rapidash, and two shiny Tangelas.

The best thing is, I caught them all from that little grass patch outside Mt. Silver. Some proof of how much grinding I did in Crystal. :s

Despite playing Pokemon games for the past 7 years I have not caught or seen 1 shiny...

But I guess it's all about luck huh?

Actually it's not. :) I'm currently working on a huge Breeding guide that will detail how to increase your chances of getting a Shiny from an egg from 1:8,192 to 1:32, for any Pokemon, without hacking or doing any kind of Shiny Ditto or whatever glitch. Keep a lookout!

The shinys I've caught are:

Pidgey
Gyarados
Swinub
Mareep

Sceptile0111 May 21st, 2010 2:33 PM

Well, besides Gyarados (duh), I also caught a shiny Noctowl while grinding in the route left of Ecruteak. I saw a shiny Rattata as well while grinding somewhere else, but I killed it without thinking. >.<

:t254: Sceptile0111 :t254:

Death_Mande May 21st, 2010 2:59 PM

I've caught the Gyarados and an Electrode while helping Lance. I was 6 Years old, so I didn't know what a shiny Pokémon was, so I released the Electrode. I loved Gyarados ever since that day in Silver ^^

I've never been able to catch any shinies in my days and boy have I played a lot. And there are some pokémon I'd like to have shinies of!

Not a problem ^_^ My guide is stickied, however it doesn't have all of the information yet. Keep checking back. :)

Aggron1991 May 25th, 2010 6:49 PM

I never did catch a Shiny on Gold, Silver or any game for that matter.

However, my friend did catch a shiny Quagsire and traded it to me in exchange for a Charizard :)

The Doctor May 29th, 2010 4:38 AM

I found myself a nifty shiny Bellsprout in my Crystal game once. And Of Course The RG

Leophard May 29th, 2010 6:53 AM

The only shiny I remember catching is a shiny Ditto I found somewhere in route 34 or 35.
Other then that, I also caught the Red Gyarados once, but I'm pretty sure most people did so as well...

x Necromorph x May 29th, 2010 4:13 PM

I catched the super rare.... Shiny Gyarados. Lol

mew² May 29th, 2010 4:18 PM

Shiny Gyarados obviously.
And I caught a Shiny Mantine when traveling around, trying to get to Lugia.

ACE9 May 29th, 2010 4:57 PM

I have caught 2 shinies(other than Gyarados):
Shiny Golbat in Ruby
Shiny Golbat in Pearl
kinda sucks...

icycatelf May 29th, 2010 5:31 PM

I only recall Golbat (evolved into Crobat), Pidgey (evolved into Pidgeot), Koffing (evolved into Weezing), and the default Red Gyarados. I reset my Silver Version about a year ago and I've yet to find a shiny this time around. I've been taking a break from it since I got HeartGold.

Night Raider May 30th, 2010 11:44 PM

Shiny Gyrados of course :p

And a Shiny Geodude while looking for Tyrouge in that mountain :)

loliwin May 31st, 2010 12:25 AM

I think ive caught a pretty shiny Corsola. XD

Socrotas May 31st, 2010 5:14 AM

Shiny Corsola
Shiny Swinub
Shiny Dunsparce
Red Gyrados

bz5566 May 31st, 2010 11:00 PM

in gold. The first pokemon I saw/caught after getting the pokeballs was a shiny Pidgey

Hybrid Theory June 1st, 2010 5:05 AM

I actually failed to caught the Garyados. -_- however, I nabbed a shiny Drowzee soon after! =D

beca June 1st, 2010 5:18 AM

A shiny drowzee and a shiny spearow in the old version of silver xD

ORegan June 17th, 2010 9:26 PM

I once caught a silver Golbat. I never knew about Shiny pokemon until much later when I looked it up online, but I was at Mt. Silver, and was attacked by a golbat that started to sparkle, I accidentally fainted it and turned off my game, thinking that I accidentllly stumbled upon a rare not-legendary pokemon*I was half right. :P* and intentionally looked for it for another thirty minutes. It was my baby and became an automatic addition to my team. :D

Emlam June 19th, 2010 7:33 AM

I caught a shiny Hoothoot. Ooooh. Hoothoot. :P
