Congrats on catching your first shiny pokemon! :P
I always thought Crobat was one of the coolest looking shinies.

I dislike your choices of nicknames, though.
Try something original instead of lame pothead lulz. They don't look or sound cool.
Also, if you decide to evolve it into a Crobat (don't see why you wouldn't) it won't be green anymore, but pink.

I found my first wild shiny in My Pearl game, it was a Budew, but I want paying attention and burnt it which kinda bugged me. But then, when I was playing SoulSilver the first time round, i somehow managed to find a shiny weedle. I was like; "What the?! WHy couldn't it have been a Pokemon I would gladly use! Not some crazy bug pokemon." But I've been using it a bit now.

I'm glad I managed to catch it. I can say I'm happy.

I caught a shiny kakuna today. Almost didn't manage it though as I only went into the grass by accident while I was hatching eggs, the only pokemon I had with me was my lv.55 Dragonite and I hadn't stocked up on pokeballs for ages, I just managed to catch it with my very last one.
I'm training her up now, already evolved into beedrill.

It makes up for the shiny pineco that used selfdestruct in my last file.

I got lucky at the start of my game <: I found a shiny pidgey outside Violet City. Named it Persephone.

Later on I found a shiny Drowzee outside Goldenrod. Can't decide on a name though, any thoughts?

In the beginning of my Soulsilver, I encountered a shiny Pidgey. I, of course, caught him and nicknamed him Shinewing. He's now a lvl.51 Pidgeot.

Later in the game, when I was in Mt. Mortar, I came upon a female Zubat. And it was green! I caught her and nicknamed her Emily. She's now rotting in my PC cause I have no idea what to do with her.

I caught a Shiny Rattata when catching normal ones for trade. Luckily it got the better ability (Guts) and a decent nature (Brave). I've still done nothing with it however..

I wasn't looking for shinies at all while playing HG/SS, but I actually found two, one in each game :D First was a Hoothoot in my imported HeartGold. I didn't do much with him since he was caught so late into my journey that he wasn't very strong. I traded him over to SoulSilver and put him in the Daycare while I went through the Gyms and such. He's pretty expensive now to take out D:

My other shiny is a beautiful Tentacruel, caught as a Tentacool. I found it while I was going to Cianwood, and my mouth dropped. I've loved Tentacool's shiny form, so to get one of my favorites was definitely one of my favorite moments in the game.

Haha! Really happy right now - just caught a shiny Magikarp that was completely gold in colour! How amazing is that? That's my first ever shiny pokemon! Other than the red Gyarados, of course... hehe...

But can someone answer a question for me... If it evolves, will it continue being shiny..?

I caught a shiny Rattata early in-game in the Burned Tower. I trained him to level 40 and boxed him. I'll probably take him to level 100 eventually, leaving him as a cute, top percentage (in your face, Youngster Joey!) Rattata.

I found a lvl. 27 Doduo on the route south of Victory Road.
It's now a lvl. 50 Dodrio with Sky Attack and a bunch of other good attacks I taught it. :)

I haven't encountered any other shinies.
My brother, however, found a shiny Shuckle while Rock Smashing in Cianwood. :)

Yeah, they're pretty much the same, just a lot more valuable, as in they're super rare! Good luck with learning the game! :)

After 3 months of on and off soft resetting, it finally appeared after the 6-7th soft reset today. Timid Synchronize worked as well.

And i was gonna give up yesterday as well.

Besides Red Gyrados, I have gotten Golbat and Pikachu shiny. They were all random, but I'm trying to get shiny Lugia currently via Soft Resetting in SS.

i was playing SS yesterday and was looking for a ditto outside Goldenrod, just to leave in the daycare for breeding etc, and I spent about 15 mins trying to find one, and instead found a shiny drowzee.
I've encountered 4 shinies in all my pokemon games now, and that was the first one i managed to catch.

The first was in sapphire, was an espeon in the battle tower which i was gutted about, the second was in pearl, a shiny magcargo in stark mountain but it was a double battle and the other trainer KOd it, and the third was a shiny clefairy in the safari zone on HG but it fled.

Id kill for a shiny staryu :(

I got a shiny hoppip and a shiny graveler after 200 hours of playing hg (and only getting as far as blackthorn :)). the graveler really scared me because it knew self destruct. but I caught it with a heavy ball first turn :)

I'm currently trying the 'Masuda Method' for the first time to get the shiny staryu that i've wanted since the RSE days! Currently on egg #10 wish me luck!

and 83 eggs later i get my shiny staryu! i wasnt expecting it so fast! i'd read about people hatching 1000-2000 eggs before getting a shiny, so i was expecting a long wait...im so excited :) im going to try with yanma now, but i bet my luck wont be the same :(
