ZOMG. I was grinding my Blastoise with Audinos in Giant Chasm when I suddenly came accross a shiny one. Luckily I looked down because i was watching tv. I caught it with a critical catch with a dusk ball too o.o call me lucky.

Got ahold of a shiny Patrat while level grinding in the Dreamyard. I'm probably gonna leave it untouched except for dress-ups for musicals.

So I am trying to SR a Shiny Kyurem, and I had a question. In some videos of people i've seen doing it, the kyurem sprite that you talk to looks different and has a green face/wings. Does this mean that I don't need to battle, and I can just SR and look at the sprite?

I caught a Shiny Patrat and Basculin within a 1 1/2 day span. Both times it happened on accident, so now whenever I want a shiny I never actually go searching for it. I rather now just do regular leveling and EV training since I also have better luck with finding shinies on accident, when I am not actively hunting them.

Caught a shiny Tropius yesterday in Black and nicknamed it Emile. This is the first Tropius I caught, including in older games.

Interestingly, my only three shinies prior to yesterday (including Gyarados but excluding events) were caught the same day as a non-shiny of the same species. Three of my four shinies between my SoulSilver and Black (Tropius, Pupitar, and Beedrill) were caught at full health with no status.

Using the Masuda Method I hatched a Shiny Darumaka with Inner Focus on the 6th egg! That means I will have a Darmamitan with Zen Mode! YAY! :D

I haven't seen any Shinies so far. But I'd love to get a shiny Tynamo.
And I never was smart with love.
I let the bad ones in and good ones go but I'm gonna love you like I've never been hurt before.
I'm gonna love you like I'm indestructible.
Your love is ultra magnetic and it's taking over
This is hardcore.
And I'm indestructible...

Hey,
I just hatched a shiny Larvesta that I got from a trade on PC
Are you saying that you hatched an egg you got from a trade on PC? Or you got one in a trade on PC?

I hatched an egg that I got from PC and I thought the colors looked different so I took it into battle and it was shiny.
Okay, well, the latest I heard from Smogon is that the coding regarding shiny eggs and trades are the same. If that is the case then you're either lying or you hacked. The reason being, Smogon did extensive testing on shiny Pokemon, they found that if you have an egg that will hatch to be a shiny in one game, then trade it to another, on the hatch screen it will look shiny, but when you go to the summary you will have found that the shinyness is gone. It's because of the whole PID/ID/OT/etc thing.

Well I didn't hack it and it still looks shiny in the summary

I caught a a shiny gurdurr in white just going from town to town in twist cave. I caught it in a quick ball since it was lv28 and my pokemon completely outleveled it by 30 or so. I nicknamed it Gir :)

That makes it that i've caught a shiny in every gen (counting FR/LG as gen 1) and thats counting the shiny gyarados in G/S/C.

I'm still going with Erufuun. It's the cutest little thing ever.

This is definitely improved sprite when it became shiny.
Whimsicott's shiny sprite looks pretty nice for a Grass-type Pokemon. :)

Why...does Garbodor's shiny sprite...remind me...of ice cream?

I haven't caught a shiny in Black or White yet. D: I'm not surprised - I tend to be unlucky with shinies anyway. The last one I caught was in Sapphire several years ago. D8 It was a Poochyena. And then the Shellder in Silver... ugh.

Hm, haven't come across a shiny yet, but while I was in the Abundant Shrine, I encountered a Stantler and I saw it was all gold and I was so excited for my first shiny but then it didn't have the stars around it and I was like "FUUUUU-" ;3;
I've always thought they're shiny form was gold ...
