I think I'm gonna do this, going after a shiny starter anyways, so why not?
Name: Tarro57
Game: Soul Silver Standard (All 16 badges, 1 for E4, and 1 for Red)
As I stated at the beginning, currently working on the starter, whoever shines is who I'll use. Not keeping track of SRs or REs, too much work :/ Wish me luck!

Well, it finally happened. After a week of SRing, my first shiny for my badge quest appeared, and I am so happy to say that it just happens to be what will be my favorite Pokemon. My heart nearly bumped out of my chest when I saw the shiny Totodile! It's so beautiful! I'll post pictures tomorrow!

I might join this later on for a run of Pokemon Black. Also wouldn't HG/SS G/S/C be the easiest seeing as it gives you a free shiny Garadose that kicks butt?

Here is my sign up but I can't start yet doing a challenge on my black game already.

Username: Obsideon
Game: Black
Challenge type: Standard!

Can't wait tell I can start I have always wanted a shiny Snivy.

Oh and can I added a rule for my challenge? That my team has to have only shiny Pokemon. HM slaves excluded of course!

P.S. Just so you know random encounter shiny Pokemon are a lot more common in 3rd gen games. (Looks at shiny Linoone, Spinda, and Weedle from Emerald and Fire Red!) So if you are doing a Hoenn run you can decide to go with megas and have a harder time finding shiny Pokemon or you can go without them and an easier time finding shiny Pokemon.

Shiny Pokemon I have caught: Rapidash (SS), Linoone (E), Spinda (E), Bibarel (Pt), Weedle (FR), Garbodor (X), Chansey(x5) (X), Audino(x2) (X), Flechinder (Mn), Whiscash (Mn), Magby (Mn), Caterpie (X)

Hey there, just thought I would let you know that I restarted my challenge on Omega Ruby. I don't remember why I stopped with Alpha Sapphire, but here's hoping I can play all the way through Omega Ruby without quitting :]

Progress at last! After around 40 hours of soft resetting I finally got myself a shiny Mudkip! ^^
I'm so happy and looking forward to playing with him! He's so cute, not sure if I'm going to evolve him, will see how we get on! Let the adventure begin!

So as you would expect, Mudkip breezed through the first gym! We then continued our journey together, picking up a new companion, a shiny Zigzagoon, on the way! Again, Mudkip made short work of the second gym and for some extra fun, made a glorious start to a career as a Contest star! We are currently on our way to Mauville City and wondering which shiny friend we shall meet next!

I am going to start with Silver I guess as it is the fastest game of them all so it shouldn't be too hard to soft reset for starters there ^.^

Sort of running this challenge, but on the Nuzlocke thread. Didn't realize this thread exists. Getting shiny Pokemon before getting the Shiny Badge is proving to be painful lol

In Alpha Sapphire, I've gotten a Zigzagoon (horde), Magikarp (fishing), and Tentacool (fishing). Spent the better part of two evenings trying to PokeNav for a Shroomish, but no luck. I also had a large chain going for Taillow, but the Pokemon in my party were soon too low of a level to faint them and keep the chain going!

OP: Should I join this challenge? Or perhaps just post my final results here?

Sorry, but this thread is unfortunately over two months old, meaning it can't be posted in anymore. You are more than welcome to either restart the thread for everyone to take part in or just do the run on your own and post a log for it in the Challenges Logs subforum.
