Your first Shiny?
So, yes, I decided to start one of these things. Erm, so I guess what I'm asking is...
What was your first shiny pokemon ever? Not one you caught, one you saw. You probably did catch though, after all, it is a shiny. My first was actually a shiny Vulpix in FireRed. I still have that Shiny Ninetales somewhere on my Diamond copy after I migrated it. I adored her, the coloring was so beautiful. |
My first ever shiny was Budew in Platinum. I was never sure whether I wanted to evolve it into a Roserade or not...
|
Mine was a Zubat in FireRed.
|
My first one was from the GTS in Platinum, and it was a Pikachu. My first one I caught myself was a Woobat in White.

Mine was a shiny Psyduck in Firered. I wanted a Sandshrew :( But it was still cool!
Edit: Wait, I guess technically it would be the Shiny Gyrados in HG but thats part of the story so I don't count it. |
The first one that I actually saw was a Teddiursa on my Pokemon Gold. It's been a long time since that happened, but I think I ended up getting a critical hit on it and causing it to faint.
My first shiny that I actually caught, though, was a Shroomish in Sapphire. And it's funny, because I don't even remember seeing it, but found it in my PC years later. |
My first shiny was Stunky, I hated stunky, I dont know why, so I never trained it.
|
Mine was a Voltorb in Emerald. I never got the chance to catch it though; It used Selfdestruct.
A Shiny Pokémon I did catch though was a Golett. |
Pidgey. Route 1. Leaf Green. I'm not even joking. Second Pokemon I encountered after getting the Poke Balls. Bam, shiny.
Also caught a Geodude in Crystal this month, so that would be two :) |
A female Duskull back in Pokemon Ruby, I didn't even know she was Shiny until I caught her.
|
A shiny Paras in firered. First one I ever saw so lucky I caught it.
|
First shiny would be the Red Gyrados in Pokemon Gold, but that's a common shiny, no big deal. So a real first legit shiny would be a Sentret which I caught in my Heart Gold game.
|
My first shiny I was aware of encountering - and captured was Zubat in soulsilver.
|
Drowzee next to the daycare center in Pokemon Silver.
|
Mine one was a geodude from victory road in pokemon leafgreen.
|
Well, my shiny pokemon story: Basically, I was in a cave, and found a shiny Zubat. BUT I was so nooby at Pokemon at that time that I thought that was the original and actual colour of a Zubat, and I never knew that shinies were this rare. So...... I ran away. :(
|
My first shiny was a Mightyena in Emerald! :) Which I transferred to my Pearl, then lost it forever after I deleted the save file, completely forgetting it was in there. :(
I miss that Mightyena. ;~; |
The first shiny I saw was a Sableye in Sapphire, but I ran from it. The first shiny I actually caught was Koffing in Emerald
|
my first shiny part from the red Gyodoes was a Beedrill in the bug catching contest..It lose the contest but hey it's a shiny.
|
My first shiny was a Seel in HeartGold. I don't remember how I noticed it because there is hardly any difference.
|
My first shiny was a Psyduck! I caught it because it was blue, not because it was shiny. I then started a new game (I had no interest in shines long time ago). When I found out I had a SHINY Psyduck, I gave myself a huge facepalm. ><
|
First shiny I ever SAW was a Skorupi. Badass coloring. Unfortunately, it was in the Marsh Zone in Pt... If only I had thrown a Pokeball instead of some mud *sigh* BUT! I have redeemed myself, and my first shiny caught was a Gligar in one of B2's Hidden Grotto's. Got a shiny Espeon through GTS, though I don't really count that one.
|
Shiny Wurmple in my sapphire verison.
|
I got lucky and got a shiny torchic as my first shiny in Ruby and the first traded shiny I got was a pelipper.
|
Mine was zubat in leafgreen and i evolved him until he became a beautiful pink crobat
|
I'm pretty sure my first shiny was in Diamond. I was running around in the tall grass near the Day-Care center and I randomly ran into a wild Ponyta. I thought the game was glitching at first because the flames on its body were blue. So I caught it. Don't have it anymore, though... I gave it to my best friend as a gift.
|
My first shiny is... Pidgey. But I just left it in PC.
|
Pokemon Crystal. East of Celadon.
Night time. Shiny Houndour.. Caught it before it could Roar. ...A party was thrown. alone |
Mine was a Ghastly from Pearl that was just outside of the haunted estate. I was very surprised seeing as I don't hunt for them.
|
My first shiny was a female Pinsir in Leaf Green. I named her Shiny.
|
Mine was a treecko on emerald :3
|
It was either the Red Gyarados on my Pokemon Silver or Ash's Noctowl (which I'm guessing would count here).
|
Shiny Geodude in Pearl. I later evolved it into a shiny Graveler. Never got a shiny Golem, though.
|
A shiny Tentacool was the first one I seen back in Pokemon Gold for Gameboy Color. But I didn't know when it shined it was rare at the time.
The first one I caught was Hippop in the Safari Zone in Heart Gold and then later before Black and White came out I got a Shiny Ponyta on Mount Silver. |
I think it was a either a Geodude or a Graveler in Pokemon Crystal.
|
My first shiny was a shiny Onix on Victory Road (Firered). It was weird that I encountered it again after I restarted the game through..
|
my first was the one I caught in platinum, it was a Roselia , and to this day it's the only non-gyarados shiny that I ever caught.
|
Probably Magby. lol that one is so weird :D
|
Mine was Solrock in Ruby.
|
My first shiny was actually a shiny magby from the egg the old couple give you in crystal, byt then I decided to restart to see if I could get a shiny elekid instead. I didn't... But I also caught a shiny zubat in sapphire. woo.
|
A Spinda in Sapphire.Six years later I also found a shiny Baltoy when I was playing Bloody Platinum.
|
These shinies all sound pretty awesome. I don't have a large history with Shinies ( only four, including the Gyarados ) So for, it was Vulpix, then I got a shiny starter ( Charmander & female, nicknamed her Maleficient ), Shroomish in Emerald.
Best news of all, I ran into a shiny... in the DreamWorld, on my White. I was screaming happily well internall, considering I was in class. Afterwards was lunch, so it was a different story. It was a Ponyta. I seem to only get fire types as shinies, haha. |
Mine was a shiny Teddiursa in Silver, but I didn't realise it was shiny until it was around level 50 since I had no idea what shiny Pokémon were back then and I only caught the Teddiursa because I really wanted to use one on my team. It's just lucky that it was something I wanted to catch that came up as a shiny, otherwise I would've most likely killed it. Looking back, I'm not sure how I didn't notice it was green paha.

Mine was a shiny Meditite in diamond. I was so shocked to see a shiny, and also relieved that I caught it(seeing as I was low on pokeballs). But alas, I cant find my diamond :(. I also found a shiny Bibarel in my platinum while scouring Pastoria marsh for a scorupi.
Advice: ALWAYS have pokeballs on ya. |
My first shiny was a Goldeen in the Tohjo falls. I didn't know they existed at the time so I was like "WHAT ARE THESE SPARKLES!?!?!?!" I think I deleted that file a long time ago though. :[
|
My first and only Shiny was a female Tropius that I caught by Fortree City.
|
not counting the default shiny Gyarados, I'm pretty sure my first shiny was a Pidgeotto I caught at Lake of Rage in my Gold version.. so glad I caught it before it could use whirlwind :]
|
Hmm, besides the LOR Gyrados, it was a Shiny Tentacruel in my pokemon gold version.
|
My first shiny was a Tentacool in Pearl version but it's long gone now.

My first shiny was a Weedle in Crystal. I found him when I was randomly headbutting trees in Ilex Forest (post-game). Unless if my battery died, he's a beautiful Beedrill. :)
|
My first shiny was a Golett I spent two whole days REing for on black. It had klutz though :/
Soon it'll be one year since I caught it! |
Mine was a shiny Sunkern. Yes a Sunkern. Nevertheless it was a shiny and I am damn proud of it. No matter how useless it is.
|
mine was rattata in my brother's crystal version, way back 2002, haha
well, there's a first in every game so i'm gonna talk about my first shiny in different version. a shiny kakuna in silver, *sparkles o.o a shiny zubat in fire red, in mt. moon i think, it KOed me a shiny mightyena in ruby, it's owned by a trainer i battled T.T a shiny relicanth in platinum, i was fishing of a kingdra, and this blue fish showed up instead, i was inlove with blue colored shiny ever since. that's my firsts :) |
Mine was a Zigzagoon in emerald
|
My first shiny was (sadly) a Bidoof. Random encounter on Diamond version. I hadn't realized how rare they are upon finding it, though. I've been playing for almost two years and only have encountered 2 shiny Pokemon in the wild, not counting the Lake of Rage Gyarados.
|
A shiny Tentacool in Diamond. First time I ever bothered catching a Tentacool. My second was a shiny Riolu which I hatched. I was much happier with the latter.
|
Out of all the time spent playing I've had one random shiny encounter, and it was a Machop back in Emerald. I was stupid and eventually erased over that save file though. Kinda wish I hadn't done that. Just a bit. ;P
|
A Geodude... I think it was in Fire Red.
|
A shiny Wurmple, that later evolved into Beautifly. Sadly I forgot I had it and stupidly deleted that game file. ;_;
|
My first shiny was a Geodude in Fire Red. It was completly useless in every single battle I sent it out though and I ended up erasing the save file afterwoods.
I've now got a shiny Celebi from one of my friends in Black 2, but that's hacked. :Y |
Red Metapod, Crystal Version on my way to see Mr. Pokemon. No poke'balls. It was horrible. I ran away because I couldn't bring myself to attack it. Wierdest thing though, I found four shinies in the space of two days in HeartGold.

Shiny Poochyena in Emerald, I believe. But that wasn't even when I was little, it was when I was replaying it a while ago. I think I also caught a Shiny Raticate on Leafgreen, but that also might have been my sister, can't remember.
|
Shiny Tepig ^^ With a Cute and Charm Face !!...
|
A shiny Chimchar I hatched from an egg in Diamond. Still haven't managed to encounter one in Black 2.
|
One day, long ago, a small child began his Pokemon journey on Red Version...
Flash forward to the present, where he finally encounters his first shiny- a mighty... Basculin? -_- At least he's adamant? |
Ekans firered, i thought my game was glitching or something, second one was also from firered i think it was a diglett. Then my firered cartridge actually did get all glitchy and eventually deleted the save files :(
|
First shiny I've ever gotten was... Shellos (West Sea)
I was looking around for mersprit in my diamond version... then shellos appeared and it sparkled. I didn't really know that it was a shiny that time because I didn't know they would sparkle and the shiny sprite of a west sea shellos, there was barely any difference in the colour scheme so... yep. ALMOST RAN AWAY 8'D |
I can't remember the first shiny Pokemon I saw P:
The first one I captured was a Lumineon though |
Excluding Red Gyarados, I actually did meet a shiny Horsea and after a few steps a shiny Munchlax in Ruby Destiny: RoL (made by destinedjagold of course). Then there was a shiny Drowzee I killed in a randomized Emerald (don't ask), and to finish this off, I have a shiny Ferrothorn on my White version that I hatched, not caught.
Well, I guess I can't catch a shiny unless it's not in a clean game. |
I used to have a shiny Chikorita before I restarted my game with the intention of getting another one later. Almost two years have passed and I still don't have one.
|
Way back when... I encountered a purple Drowzee on route 24, whilst leveling my Poke's on the first play through of Silver Version. How cool was that! I was like, that Drowzee is purple wtf... go Poke-Ball! Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle.
I didn't catch another until Diamond version. I some how caught a green Machoke on Victory Road, level 45 with only 1 pokeball left. Winning! |
My first shiny was Tangela in HG
|
My first shiny? Hmm... I think it was a Voltorb in Gen 2.
Might have had one prior to that, though I can't recall. |
I haven't caught one but I remember it like it was yesterday. I was maybe 8? I had Ruby, my first Pokemon game though, I liked it from the beginning. I was coming back to the lab after beating May and on Route 1... shiny Poochyena. of course at this point you couldn't get pokeballs sooo... you know. I almost died that day. It may have been my first game but I still knew a lot about Pokemon.
|
My first Shiny was in Gold, and it was a Kangaskhan,
|
zubat in jap. SS. It's an epic Crobat now :) I seem to have an talent in getting random shinies in Jap. R4 games lol (I always buy the english games though)
|
First one seen was an Absol on my SS. I don't know how I ran out of all of those 100 or so ultra balls... The first one I caught was actually a Skitty on Emerald. It was my favourite pokemon ever, but I lost my GBA with pokemon emerald in it... Now I play on emulators :t300: I will miss my Skitty...
|
My first, and only, Shiny is a Geodude. I named him Rock-man.
|
I encountered & caught my first ever shiny about a week ago. I was just casually making my way through victory road when I ran in to a pokemon and saw the twinkle of the shiny stars surrounding a Banette! I kind of had a little nerd moment and freaked out, wife has no idea what I was babbling incoherently about shiny pokemon and 1/8000 encounter rate.
Nonetheless, I had a decent supply & variety of pokeballs along with a Haxorus with false swipe to seal the deal. Now have my first shiny! I haven't really put him to use yet. Don't have much interest in ghost or Banette in particular, but it's still nice to come across in my box when I'm searching for something else! |
My first shiny was a Zubat in FR but I was rushing through Mt. Moon and accidently ran from it.
My next was a Rattata also in FR but it was on Route 1 and I had no pokeballs. My first shiny that I caught was a Bellsprout in HG on the route east of Mahagony. The story is this- I was going through the route and I just wanted to check the grass pokemon for fun when this came out. |
My first was a Bidoof on Diamond version. D:
After that (not including Lake of Rage Gyarados) my next was probably a Golbat on White version. Right now I'm hunting for a shiny Treecko by breeding them. |
I'm not sure and I don't know if the first was a Magnemite or maybe a Zubat. In any case, they both were caught in my Ruby version (I couldn't find any in my Gold version T.T)
|
My first shiny was in Pokemon Crystal, and it was... an "i" Unown... I was so happy and I thought it was amazing, but only having hidden power kind of sucked...
|
Excluding the red Gyarados and the sinies I have received by trade, I would say that I unfortunately never encountered a shiny in the wild yet =/
Bu I did manage to breed a shiny Treecko tho. |
Excluding the red Gyarados, my first shiny was a Drowzee or Krabby on Crystal Version, I can't remember which x( |
I didn't get my first shiny (minus the gyarados in gsc) until Emerald when I found a shiny Wailmer.
|
My first shiny (besides Gyarados) that I found was a shiny Unown V while I was Unown-hunting in my Silver version. It was rather anticlimactic, and I didn't even know it was a shiny at first, but it still holds a special place in my heart.
|
The first one I got was a shiny Lotad in Sapphire, which belonged to my brother. I transferred the Lotad to my game later.
|
My first ever shiny Pokemon was a shiny Gyarados back in Pokemon Silver. I never used this Gyarados because I never liked Gyarados.
:t354:TG |
Shiny Weedle in SS. I don't even think I used it, shiny or not, Beedrill is garbage.
|
My First Caught Shiny (Also the first I Saw) Was a Ghastly on FireRed
My Second Caught Shiny (And also Second seen) Was a Spearow on FireRed My Most recent shiny was 2 Years ago in Platinum it was a Luminieom (I forgot how to spell it) My First ever seen shiny on a Gen II Game was a Spinerak I think but I didnt have any poke balls yet (RAWR) |
The first shiny I ever saw was probably cheated for :/ can't remember which one I would've picked first.
Legitimately, first one I saw and caught was a shiny numel on Emerald, I think. I still prize my legit shiny numel. |
My first ever shiny was one of the most badass ones out there. I caught myself a shiny Ponyta back in Leafgreen. Looking back, I wish I hadn't traded it.
|
A memory I savour. I was fishing in Oldale Town for a new surfer, but I was talking to my friend as well. So when I pulled it out, I missed the shine animation, but thought I heard it. Unfortunately, I'm colour-blind for red and green (this caused LOTS of loss of data back on the GBA) so I couldn't tell whether or not it was shiny. So I was just like, heck why not, and caught it. And I had a happy.
|
My first & only shiny (excusing the Red Gyarados) was the most depressing Pokèmon moment of my entire lifetime.
I had just begun my very first playthrough of Pokèmon Crystal & ran into a shiny Hoothoot. Before I acquired my first Pokèballs... |
I bet everyone in here is lying and their first shiny was actually the Red Gyarados in Gold/Silver.
|
ALL of my shiny sightings have been in emulators :< I guess I'm just luckier on the computer than in real life lol. Anyways, my first shiny sighting ever was in an emerald randomized version. I actually hadn't seen any pokemon at all yet before getting my pokeballs. It was weird. It was the SECOND pokemon I saw, a shiny castform. I practically screamed XD I caught her on my last pokeball somehow and nearly died when I threw that last one and saw it click. I named her Sparkles :3
I've also seen a wild shiny grovyle on the same randomizer and caught it, and got a shiny turtwig as a starter (not on purpose) on a platinum emulator. Edit: Of course no one's counting the red gyarados! XD |
