Basically the opposite of your usual ‘what grinds your gears’ or ‘whine about your playthrough’ threads, what are some positive things that happened in your playthroughs?

In my Sacred Gold nuzlocke, I managed to get four 5% encounters as my first catch on different routes. Yes really, and there was even a case where I wanted the most common encounter and got the rarest one instead.
I… might put something interesting here eventually.

Once in a while... I come across a few shinies. It doesn't happen all that often, but when it does... it excites me!

Heya, I have Pokemon Moon which is my very first pokemon game. So my question is - as the titel suggest- following: Which other pokemon games are worth playing? Which one has the best story?There is alot of different pokemon games and remakes so I'm a bit lost and don't know how to navigate it all.solitaire.onl/ 9apps.ooo/

I was playing Pokemon Blue today and wanted a Diglett. I immediately found a Dugtrio and caught it with one Pokeball.

During my previous playthrough of Pokémon Shield, I managed to catch Zamazenta with one regular Poké Ball. I can only hope that it will be that easy on my current file.

I ran into my first shiny on accident. (It was a shiny Seviper that I stumbled across in Black 2 in the wild grass).

Wow, everyone with shinies and here I am, having Ko'd the only shiny I encountered. Oh! Positive stuff, yeah! Every time a Pokémon evolves or hatches from an egg, I feel happy. I know it's common, but no matter how many times it happens, it just amazes me and makes me smile (internally in front of my parents).
My Skarmory tanking tons of powerful attacks despite being underleveled in my Omega Ruby nuzlocke. I owe my position to her - she took five explosions and two self-destruct, and only get a scratch (individual battles). This is fine.

I can think of a few cool moments:

1. Randomly found and caught a shiny Psyduck in my first Pokémon gold playthrough. I didn’t even know what a shiny was at the time.

2.Was looking for a scyther in the bug catching contest in Heartgold and found and caught a shiny caterpie in the process.

3. I heard a lot about Cynthia being tough, so I grinded my team in Platinum to level 52(not crazy high) and then beat her on my first try. I was pleasantly surprised after I had heard how challenging she can be.

Yesterday I caught a shiny Luvdisc by just turning around and hitting a fishing spot in Ultra Moon, first try. I was blown away because that NEVER EVER happens to me at all, I don't even have the shiny charm yet because I'm only on the 3rd island. Last time I encountered a wild shiny without the charm was WATCHOG in W2 6 years ago, and even then I'd just be grinding for fun and clapping them out repetitively so by then I had a chain going. This is like my...second completely random without boosted odds, first if you don't count the above due to the chain. I have like...5 overall, ever, and 3 of those came after the Shiny Charm in Sun.

Like several people here, I found a shiny recently! It was a Caterpie in Fire Red Rocket Edition (rom hack, no boosted shiny odds) and what's great is that I caught it on video too because I was recording. Thank goodness for technology <3.
