The "Shiny Pokemon" Bragging thread
 
Hey all! Anyway, to cut to the chase, I am proud of the Shiny Ryhorn I caught last night and want to show him to the world. So, if you have a shiny Pokemon and want to brag about it, post here!

JackGamer January 10th, 2011 1:41 PM

I have none, in like 10 years of PKMN gaming.
This thread makes me feel sad ;-;

Draci.Kun January 10th, 2011 2:20 PM

I've had a few shinies...none noteworthy, except for my shiny Dusknoir that I got in Platinum.

A few days ago on Soul Silver I ran into a Rattata and Stantler one right after the other. o.O

PsychoJigglypuff January 10th, 2011 3:11 PM

My Shiny Farfetch'd. My only shiny ever, not counting Red Gyrados. And that one Geodude that I found in Silver. I was only six or something so I killed it. >.>

But, it's totally manly and pink.

Amore January 10th, 2011 3:35 PM

Well, I don't count traded pokémon, and traded hacks (shiny Latias), so I've encountered 3 shinies that I can remember (may have had more and ignored them because they were Tentacool and I was young on Emerald xD):

Shiny Machoke - Had no Poké Balls, I was very sad to let it go, particularly as I'd just discovered No Guard, and also now had the means to evolve it thanks to wi-fi.
Shiny Geodude - Accidental KO - very sad.
Shiny Kricketot - Caught on Platinum. Eventually traded away to get an Arceus. Pretty good deal.

Yeah, that's all my shiny encounters, and they were all in Sinnoh!

PlatinumDude January 10th, 2011 11:03 PM

Well, here are the shinies I caught so far:
Emerald: Koffing
Platinum: Roselia, Sneasel, Marill, Blissey
HeartGold: Mewtwo
(lost above shinies when I lost the games)
SoulSilver: Tentacool, Golbat

All of the shinies listed were caught through dumb luck. No RNGing was done.

Cathar January 11th, 2011 2:54 AM

The only shiny I ever encountered was a Spinarak in Crystal. Before I could buy Pokéballs -.-

Sydian January 11th, 2011 4:52 PM

Well, this is a bragging thread, so I'd like to be obnoxious and brag. lol These are the ones I still have. Granted, there's only one shiny Pokemon I have encountered that I no longer have, but I did catch it (it was a Whismur). So I'm pretty proud to say I've never ran away from/fainted a shiny Pokemon and have caught all the ones I've seen in random encounters.

I had both found these too in the wild and was amazed by my find. I caught the shiny Geodude on my Diamond game and just caught it solenmly because of it's different colour.

I found the shiny swinub on my original Gold Verison Pokemon Game for GBC. I found it in Ice Path while trying to figure out that horrific puzzle! At first I didn't understand what shiny pokemon were; I didn't even know that they existed. Just out of luck I found one and only cauhgt it because it looked unque to me. Yet little did I know, I caught a really rare pokemon! I was so happy for the whole day and travelled with my new shiny swinub and the shiny gyarados around Johto for a couple of days and leveled them up.

Eurydice January 11th, 2011 9:23 PM

Koi January 11th, 2011 10:08 PM

Well I caught Shiny Fearow in Diamond(I think) before.

I think I seen Shiny Graveler too and If I remember correctly, it exploded on me before I had chance to capture it.

dragonite149 January 11th, 2011 10:59 PM

Cooker January 12th, 2011 9:48 AM

I've actually ran into a few in game! I've got a shiny Oddish, a shiny Modest Bulbasaur [from breeding], 2 shiny Ponytas [which look sweet] and a shiny Budew. So mostly grass types o.O

princesskittenface January 12th, 2011 4:55 PM

lol i guess the only shiny i have would be the lake of the rage gyarados^^" but i lovers him<3

blue January 13th, 2011 3:10 AM

The only EVER Shiny I've ever caught was in Diamond, and that was 2007, It was a Shiny Shinx and it was at the very beginning of the game it was only Lv 4. but I was shocked because I've never encountered a Shiny and I remember using it on my team throughout the game and it's still on my team, about Level 68, but I've misplaced the game, sadly.

Christopher January 13th, 2011 10:29 PM

I've Encountered a few
Sapphire:
Wurmple-while trying to find a Surskit I happened upon this fellow I caught it and Pal parked it to my SS where I evolved him into a beautifly but sadly reset the game and forgot to transfer it :(

Platinum:
Cherubi-This was my first shiny pokmon ever throughout my 8-9 years playing the games
Barboach-Found this guy while fishing near Eterna City one quick Ball did the trick.
Cacturne-Found this one up on route 228 one quick ball did the trick here as well which surprised me.

Soul Silver:
Golbat-This was the most recent,I encountered him while going through Victory Road I knew If i hit him he would faint so I just threw a fast ball and was lucky enough to catch it.

DNZGames January 16th, 2011 11:52 PM

First time I played Gold - shiny Cyndaquil. Yeah, first ever Pokemon on the game - shiny!

Twiggity Twang January 17th, 2011 12:55 AM

List:
Zapdos (Heartgold)
Articuno (HeartGold)
Tangela (HeartGold)
Sandshrew (HeartGold)
Gabite (HeartGold)
Noctowl (HeartGold)
Weavile (HeartGold)
Teddiursa (Pearl)
Honchkrow (Pearl)

JackShield January 17th, 2011 3:59 AM

I only got 1. Its a shiny zubat from just wandering around (getting lost actually) in those dark caves.

Kikindo January 17th, 2011 5:37 AM

The LoR Garydos. That's it.

After nearly 2,200 charmander eggs hatched, no shiny. Looks like it's not looking good for me ever getting another shiny pokemon. :(

mikey January 19th, 2011 11:51 AM

My Shiny Pokemon include:
- Shiny Raikou (from the Gamestop Beasts Event, on Heartgold)
- Shiny Entei (from the Gamestop Beasts Event again, also on Heartgold)
- Shiny Mightyena (from a friend, on my Heartgold)
- Shiny Bellossom (wild encounter with an Oddish, on my Heartgold)
- Shiny Hoot-Hoot (wild encounter on my Silver)
- Shiny Gyrados (obviously from the Lake of Rage event on Heartgold)
- Shiny Cyndaquil (from a friend, on Heartgold)

Wow, as I was filling this out, I realized all but one are on my Heartgold o_O

Haberdasher January 19th, 2011 1:48 PM

I only have Shiny Raikou and Entei from the GameStop events and Shiny Gyarados from Lake of Rage. I keep looking for shinies, but so far none have appeared for me, except way back in the days of Gen II when I lacked Poke Balls and failed to catch one (the species has been blotted out of my memory).

princesskittenface January 19th, 2011 3:23 PM

i gots a shiny entei and shiny gyarados ^^

The Noob Hacker January 19th, 2011 8:53 PM

I've only seen two shinies in my career. (Not counting Lake of Rage Gyarados.) One was a Ryhorn in the FR Safari Zone, it ran away. The second was a Zubat in Emerald, I KO'd it with a critical hit.
