But, im super happy so i thought id make a thread about it!!! first ever shiny on a rom (no cheats or gameshark/Ar nothing and i got a shiny slowpoke!!!) i was soooooo happy and i caught it right away with a pokeball after my gastly put it to sleep, i just thought it was a good accomplishment to share with everyone here since it kinda also relates to my username and fav. pokemon and i wasnt sure where else to put it. So if anyone else wants to mention their first shiny they caught and how it happened then post away

I have never caught a shiny Pokémon (Excluding Red Gyarados). I've only ever experienced one other on Silver and that was a shiny Pidgey which I couldn't catch due to having no Pokéballs with me at the time.

Grats on catching a shiny, and how fitting that it's a Slowpoke lol.

Actually, i just noticed that I've found two other shinies but...

The first one was a Shiny Ariados in Pokemon Shiny Gold however I fainted it and it was a ROM (a FireRed ROM hack)
The second one was a Starly in Pokemon Ruby Destiny: Reign of Legends (a Pokemon Ruby ROM hack.)

My first shiny caught was not the Red Gyrados. I was too stupid to catch it when I was 8.

My first shiny would actually have to be a Pokemon I ran into while testing my hack XD (it replaces Psyduck, so I guess it would count as a psyduck)

Shiny Slowpoke; anon approves (Y)

My first and only shiny without the use of a Poke Radar was an orange Raticate. Ran into it late at night, and was sadly low on Ultra Balls, so I failed to capture it. I haven't seen a natural shiny since, and it's been about 8+ years since that day...:(

That's why I resorted to the use of the radar to get me shiny Pokemon, lol. I have 108 shiny Pokemon under my belt with the use of the Radar =D

I forget what it was, but I caught my first shiny in Crystal, barring the Red Gyarados.
Then I remember the second shiny I got was a Meditite on my Sapphire.

My brother found a shiny Magcargo and Stunky within minutes of each other while playing the game as normal too.

I don't really care much for shinies, though.
