how!? is that really possible?
It's possible. You just need to keep soft-resetting until you can get a shiny starter.

I still haven't encountered any shinies yet in Black. I haven't SRed for any, and I'm just going by luck now, so we'll see.

So in my...about 143 or so hours of playing Black version, I've only came across two shinies: A shiny Tangela and a shiny Piloswine. Now, I understand that neither Pokemon might not be too impressive, even as a shiny, but it was quite an accomplishment for me, though. n___n The amazing part about it is the short period of time in which the two encounters actually happened.

So yeah, I just wanted to share that. xD;
Two shinies in one game is pretty amazing IMO. I only ever find one shiny per game. XD

Anyway, I've been getting extremely lucky with the GTS at the moment. Someone wanted a Reshiram for a shiny Azelf, so I traded one of my Jirachi's from Channel for a Reshiram and then traded that for the Azelf. It's not like I'm going to trade my Reshiram. XP Anyway, I'm fairly sure it's as legit as it is going to get, as it was transferred over from Sinnoh at level 50, the level you catch it. I also found a shiny Torchic. I've always wanted a shiny Torchic just because I love Torchic. :D I even soft-reset for a while on Pokemon Emerald to try and get one. Anyway, they wanted a Breloom. Luckily, I transferred a Breloom over from Pokemon Platinum that I transferred from Pokemon Emerald that I got from Pokemon XD as a Shroomish. XD Anyway, it couldn't be traded for some reason. I'm guessing it's the National Ribbon. Luckily, I had a Shroomish in my box that I quickly levelled up and traded. It's level 1, and it has Speed Boost as an ability. It has basically the perfect nature (adamant, so it boosts attack and lowers special attack.) Meh, I'm just happy I got a shiny Torchic, and I'll try and EV train it at some point. :D

Adam.

Well, I haven't caught any shinies by a random encounter, sadly. However, I have managed to get a Shiny Shuckle from the GTS (very suprised to see it there although it is legit) and a Shiny Heatmor from the Masuda Method (took a while but it was worth it in the end.
I was trying to use the Masuda Method for a Shiny Trubbish but I got bored after a while... If I have time, however, I may go on trying to hatch a Shiny Klink. Wish me luck!

Hate to break it to ya, mate, but that's hacked.

The only way to get a Speed Boost Torchic is through the DW giveaway, and they're all 1) Male and 2) Shiny-checked.

So the only way to get a shiny Speed Boost Torchic would be to breed a (not legit) FEMALE Speed Boost Torchic.

I encountered my first of 5th Generation a few weeks. I was hatching eggs and I went on "Tour Around Unova" kind of thing. As I was strolling Route 3, I encountered a Shiny Patrat. I threw a Quick Ball and I caught it. I checked it's stats at the PC and it was Bashful, Boo-hoo. At least I caught a shiny.

Awhile back I found a shiny Solrock in the Giant(or great?) Chasm. I kept thinking to myself. If this thing uses Explosion i'm going to cut myself. It was in a double battle too, so i had to kill the other pokemon in the battle before catching it in a quick ball. it didn't use explosion so I thought it didn't have it, then I checked the moves and saw explosion and I was so happy it didn't use it.

I've never run into a shiny in the wild don't know how you can. Is it just random chance?

But I do have a shiny Glaceon that I got through trade with my sister

I was so ticked when I finally ran into a shiny and it was a Darmanitan. -_- Oh boy! IT'S--IT'S!!! Slightly dark brown. -_- I did manage to rape a few people on GTS out of a shiny Weavile and a shiny Mr. Mime though. I keep running into hacks, but these are legit. I managed to pawn off Darmanitard for a Groudon though. So no loss.
