Worst Shiny Experience
The ONLY shiny pokemon I've ever seen in the wild is a Ralts. Do you want to know where? It was the one Wally caught in Emerald. -_- You heard me. I had to fight a shiny Gardevoir the rest of the game. I wanted to cry when I saw that thing.
What's your worst experience with a shiny Pokemon? Just for the record, I challenge anyone to come up with anything worse than what happened to me. Hahahaha. |
I booted up my first Gen II game...
Ran into a shiny Hoothoot, had no Pokèballs, didn't realized what I had missed. It was soul-crushing when I realized that I adored Noctowl... |
The first shiny I saw in Gen V was Krokorok. I ran out of Pokéballs to catch it with.
But, shiny Krokorok is butt ugly anyway. |
This can apply to more than RSE/FRLG, and people are answering with non-3rd gen games anyway, so off to PGC this goes.
I myself haven't had a bad shiny incident. ;3 |
I've had many bad shiny experiences.
#1: Shiny Rattata in Gold, no Pokédex yet. #2: Shiny Jolteon in the Battle Pyramid in Emerald. #3: Shiny Metagross in the Battle Tower in Ruby. #4: Shiny Combee... male shiny Combee. |
I haven't had any bad shiny experiences. I've caught all the shinies I found and any shinies I lost it was because I restarted the game (my Gold) or I lost the game (My Silver). But that's pretty much it.
|
My worst shiny experience is when I met a shiny Stantler. I was RNG abused the two roamers Raikou and Entei. I'm about to RNG a Latios, then this shiny stantler comes up. Seriously, right after I caught my RNGed Raikou just to test if i get it right :(. I ended up catching both raikou and entei and could not rng my latios at all since if I want to RNG it, i need both raikou and entei.

My worst experience was with my rivals pokemon, all were shiny for some reason?
I am so annoyed wo4th RGN |
My shiny experience isn't as bad as some other people's, but here we go:
I'd played Pokemon for years and never run into shinies. I started "hunting" (at that time I got tired after 20 soft resets lol!), and tried what I thought was really hard to get a shiny for a couple of weeks. That weekend, my friend who played pokemon ran into a random Shiny Zubat, and the next day ran into a Shiny Clefairy! That's not even it - I was using my sister's Diamond version, when I ran into a Shiny Girafarig! But... my sister wouldn't let me keep it. |
You have heard stories like this all over the internet I guess, but I'll tell it anyway: one of the only two shiny Pokémon I've met was a Graveler, who used Selfdestruct right away.
|
I've never had any bad shiny experiences but the first shiny I caught was a Dewgong...and shiny Dewgong are barely any different than the non-shiny ones. :P
|
It was a shiny Hoothoot in Eterna Forest in Platinum, but I was with that girl with the Chansey so two wild Pokémon appeared at the same time. Stupid girl KOed the Pokémon I attacked, and my Pokémon attacked the Hoothoot instead, killing it.
|
Probably told this story many times...
I was in the safari zone in pokemon Pearl when a shiny Starly appeared and the game decides to crash on me. |
my first shiny i met ( apart from gyarados!) was in diamond, and was a...
Shiny friggin Magikarp |
Shiny 钻地虫 is my first shiny PKM.

I guess my worst experience is the lack of experiences. I've played the games for over ten years, only seen one shiny Pokemon besides Gyarados, and it was a Machop. Not as bad as seeing and not being able to catch, but it still frustrates me that my luck is so bad. ;P
|
Does not encountering a non-Red Gyarados count as a 'worst shiny experience'? 'Cause that's all I've got, to be honest...
|
I once found a random shiny bellsprout in the safari zone in soulsilver, I thought it was cool cuz. Of the gold leaves so I thre some bait at it. It ate and ran on the first turn.

My other bad experience was seeing a Shiny Paras in the Safari Zone on Fire Red. I was down to one last Safari Ball, and I didn't want to chance throwing a rock at it, so I crossed my fingers and threw the ball. It escaped after two shakes, and my Safari game was over. |

I do have a relatively good experience with them otherwise. |
My first 2 shinies were my worst shiny experiences. The first one was a Zubat in FR and I accidently ran before realizing that it was a shiny. My second was a Rattata in FR when I was on Route 1 and didn't had a Pokedex. :(
|
Running from a shiny Boldore in Black, which was a shame cos it looks nice.
I did catch a shiny Drilbur months later to make up for it. He's an Excadrill now. |
Worst shiny experience: never seeing one ever.
