Shiny Pokemon in Fire Red
Has anyone caught a Shiny Pokemon in Fire Red?
Is there any way to raise the shiny chances without hacking? :D |
I've gotten a shiny geodude in fire red, I think.
And nope no way of raising your chances with out cheating. |
*Starts crying* This brings me a lot of memories, I was back in school(11-12 years old) and was grinding hour after hour lvling when boom shiny whooper appears. That was my strongest mini heart attack so far when it comes to shinies. It became one of my favorite pokes (even when it was Tylenol pinkish) and later evolved him. He then went to my Diamond, then I had some weird teenage apathy towards pokemon and gave my game to my nephew...now years later I get my love for pokemon stronger than ever just to find out he exchanged the game with some boy and after like 2 years of trying to get it back...my game returns without my shinies :C...
After that tl;dr story; I don't think there is a way to raise chances without hacking device. |
Hm… if I remember correctly, I think I've managed to catch myself a shiny Scyther at one point. 8) Alongside, I also caught a Pidgey. I've encountered shiny Onix once, but wasn't able to capture it, as I didn't have any Poké Balls with me.
|
Eventually wandered upon a blue shiny Nidoran ♂. Named him The King, leader of the team. He took me all the way through the E4 and beyond.
And no, without external programs/cartridge attachments the shiny rate is and always will be a 1/8192 chance. |
Did you guys catch it randomly or you were grinding in a grass for a shiny?
|
I swear, my Fire Red cartridge must be a shiny magnet or something. To date, I got most of the shinies I own from Fire Red. I got a shiny Machoke, Sentret, Rattata (eat your heart out, Joey), Magnemite, Nidoran-M, Zubat, Rhyhorn, and a Chansey from the Safari Zone. All these Pokémon were found randomly.
|
Ehm nope? You can't raise your shiny chances in-game, there is no way :x You just have to be patient and be lucky, earn them ;)
Anyway, here I go with the Shinies I got in my FireRed/ LeafGreen games. I caught them all randomly except for Bulbasaur, I wanted a shiny starter once so I soft reset for one ;): FireRed: - Doduo - Rhyhorn (safari zone) - Weedle - Pidgeotto - Paras (safari zone) - Exeggcute (safari zone) - Nidorino (safari zone) - Koffing LeafGreen: - Magikarp - Bulbasaur (soft reset) |

LMao, ya'll are so lucky. :D
|
I did find a shiny Taruos in the safari zone but it ran away.
|
I got a shiny Pidgey and Rattata at the start of the game buuuut I left my G-boy once in my room only to find my save file deleted by my sister.. :(
|
Found a shiny Pidgey on Route 2 after I'd completed the game. You should be able to find one by the time you finish the game (considering that you played for a 100 hours or so, and venture into the grass a lot) but some of the shinies are not instantly recognisable and you might knock them out.
|
I've finished 3 different generations, haven't seen one, besides the Gyarados in Crystal.
It's possible I haven't even noticed it if I had encountered it, but oh, I'll pay more attention to it now. |
I once came across a Shiny Geodude while grinding. I did end up catching it, but I have no idea where it ended up. I may have deleted it, since I like playing through games multiple times to see which team would be the best to use. I still miss it to this day. :'(

BTW I also found a shiny gulpin in Ruby, both times I ws grinding or searching for pokemons, staying a lot of time in the grass and not using repelents. |
I have NEVER ran into any shinies. I have looked forever, played every main series Pokemon Game and I've never even found one. I don't think chances are very high. If you want information about getting a shiny for each specific gen you should check out the bulbapedia page, http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Shiny
Hope I helped. |

Yes! My first shiny came from Fire Red.
I was exploring the Sevii islands when I encountered a shiny Spearow. ^^ And now it's in my Pokémon X game and it's a darling~ It actually isn't bad at all, I got pretty lucky. |
I caught three shinies in Pokemon firered the first one was nidoran (f) which turned into nidoqueen it was unintentional then the second was shiny goldeen which I found while surfing to seafoam islands it was just my luck that on my return trip from seafoam I found shiny gyrados while fishing with a super rod
|
My worst luck with shinies has come in FireRed, as the two that I found, I wasn't able to catch.
The first one was a shiny Paras in the Safari Zone. I was fooling around earlier on by tossing Safari Balls at every Pokemon I could find, and eventually made my way down to 1, while also having just one step left on my timer. Lo and behold, a shiny Paras shows up, and in fear of it fleeing, I tossed my last Safari Ball at it right away. It shook twice, broke free, and then my Safari game ended. The other time was when I came across a shiny Weedle. Well, I didn't come across it- the old man in Viridian did. I just had to sit there and watch while he caught it. While I'm not a big fan of either Weedle or Paras, I still would've much rather had them than have them show up under those circumstances. |
Shinies i have found in Fire Red(Also in some hacked roms based on firered) so far:
Ditto Stantler Shroomish Rattata-Raticate Gyarados Cubone-Marowak Whismur Parasect Caterpie-Metapod-Buttefree |
My Shinies:
Goldbat- Location Victory Road Training(My First Shiny Ever) Pidgey- Location Route 1(after just 5-6 encounters) Rattata- Location Just Outside Victory Road Near Virdian City This Are the only pokemons i caught in my Pokemon Gaming I Never ses a Shiny Again in anyGen |
I have pretty good luck finding shinies (I don't hunt them, but I stumble across them fairly regularly), but Fire Red is one of the lesser ones - IIRC, I only found one shiny in FR - a Doduo.
|
Im about to face E4, and guess how many shinies I've encountered in 24 hours of gameplay?
10 time more then I have encountered in my whole life time, that I remember, and guess how much is that? ZERO, time 10, ZERO again, yay. :D |
