3rd Gen Your First Shiny

The first Shiny Pokemon I saw was an Oddish. Unfortunately, because I was at the tender age of five at the time, I didn't realise that it was so rare, and so I fainted it, just like I would have any other Pokemon. It was only three years later, when I worked out what the hell Shiny Pokemon were, that I realised what I had done...

Natu on Emerald! I was so amazed that I caught it I instantly trained it up and put it on my team haha...

I caught a shiny seedot in ruby

My very first shiny on FireRed was a shiny Caterpie caught in Viridian Forest. In leafgreen I did not managed to capture a shiny geodude because I only have 1 pokeball left T_T

While I managed to capture a shiny zubat in Ruby and a shiny tentacool in Emerald.

My first Shiny was a Shiny Regirock, I was in so much shock, and was able to capture it. :)
This was in Pokemon Emerald by the way.

Black Rayquaza emerald, took 5 hours of soft resetting

My first ever true shiny that I didn't hack, receive from storyline or otherwise even look for occurred in Generation 3. It was a Shiny Spinda in Emerald, and I named her "Emerald" :3

Abra.

I bought him from the slot machine place.

My first shiny was on my Sapphire game. It was an awesome looking Electrike, at first I was like wait he's not blue? Lol I then realized what had happened and was ecstatic :)

I have never found a shiny that I can remember. :(

First was a shiny Lotad that i evolved into Ludicolo
Then a Shroomish => Breloom
Oddish => Vileplume
Gulpin => Swalot
and my newest is Beldum => Metagross (the only one i still have)

My first in gen 3 was cacnea i didn't figue out what it was. 2nd was wurmple and 3rd was swellow. just luckly i guess.
also got buizel and victreebell in diamond.





-Boysenberry

Leaf Green, Primeape, Victory Road.

Never caught a shiny. Only seen one ever, which was on my friends Fire Red. A shiny marrowak. He actually made me believe you had to have played more than 400 hours. I passed the 450 hours played on Leaf Green without ever seeing a shiny.

Wait.

There was once a time I saw a shiny in my own game. I had started a new Leaf Green save game for teh lulz (without saving ofc), got to the point where you meet the old man who teaches you how to catch a pokémon and I kid you not, the weedle was a shiny weedle... Or at least it seemed shiny o_o

I've been fortunate enough to encounter quite a number of shiny Pokemon on my Fire Red saved file:

Skarmory on Seven Island
Tentacool in Icefall Cave
Electrode in Cerulean Cave
Rhyhorn in the Safari Zone

In Leaf Green, I caught a shiny Bellsprout on Route 15 and a shiny Geodude in Mt. Ember.

In Emerald, the only shiny I've ever encountered and failed to capture is a shiny Rhyhorn in Hoenn's Safari Zone (about a month after I caught my shiny Rhyhorn in the Fuchsia Safari Zone).

My first Gen 3 shiny was a Fearow from Route 23 on an old playthrough of FireRed. It was back in 2005... I think.

I happened to stumble upon a shiny Meowth in my Pokemon Fire Red, and although Persian's shiny is lacking uniqueness, a shiny is a shiny.

My first shiny was a Ralts. God, I loved that thing, y'know. {<3}

Whismur in Sapphire. I caught it right when I got to the cave where they first appeared, though sadly I don't have mine anymore. D:
