The latest Shiny I found was a shiny Haxorus on Black and White 2, I've captured it! Just complete the Pokedex and Juniper will give you a ticket and you can go to that resort. I found my Haxorus there.

It was the red gyarados back in Gold. My jaw dropped.

My very first shiny was an Oddish in pokemon silver! I remember being in awe over it after I realized my game wasn't glitching - it was a new feature!

And it's funny, my second shiny was an oddish on that same game too. I never got another until last year, my shiny zubat on HeartGold! Johto just loves me I think.

The first shiny I saw was a tangela in Crystal, it ran away :( Then I spent a good ten minutes looking for it again not understanding how shiny pokemon work :/

Don't take life too seriously. It's only a temporary condition.

Shiny Gyarados on gold? beside that Shiny Nidoran in Leaf Green's best place to find a Shiny Pokemon.... Safari Zone... It escaped.... the first I realy caught was in Emerald a Shiny Ralts, I was hunting modest Ralts when I found my precious thing, I cloned it a few times and began to sell them to friends. Now I am the proud owner of a Shiny Gardevoir and Galade on Diamond (my laziness at the time not training it directly was my biggest luck)

Absol was the first shiny Pokémon I ever caught back in Ruby. Unfortunately, being a naive little kid back then, I didn't know how rare finding a Shiny Pokémon even was. To make matters worse, when I first encountered the shiny Absol, I didn't even recognize that it was a different color than normal. I was lucky enough to be looking for one at the time and managed to catch it, otherwise I would have let it get away.

It's too bad I liked re-playing Ruby so much though, because I no longer have it anymore.

First shiny.. was a Voltorb back in Pokemon G/S/C. I thought I glitched the game somehow, but caught the Voltorb regardless. It was blue and awesome and I was 6. xD

Green Nidoqueen in gold version. I was 8 so I think I traded it to someone for a Piloswine because I have an odd fascination with that Pokemon.

My first shiny... I think it was a shiny Caterpie in 2nd generation. I caught it because it looked pretty, but it was fooled from me by 7 years older kids than me. I traded it for a normal Growlithe. I loved Growlithe, and they made it seem like a fair trade.

After that, well, Red Gyarados. I think that's a little cheaty, though.

HEYO!

I've actually had quite a few shiny encounters in my lifetime, but the first one I can remember was a Pidgey in Pokemon Gold. I didn't really understand what a shiny was because it was new and I was young, so I also caught three other Pidgeys that weren't shiny, decided that I didn't like how my file was going, and started a New Game. Then I learned how cool shinies actually were, and went on to get a shiny Gyarados, Tyrogue, Zubat, and Geodude.
