3rd Gen Have you found any shinies in 3rd gen?

Shiny vulpix in fire red shiny metapod leafgreen shiny spheal in sapphire I cant remeber the rest but there was a good number the only other one i remember made me insane in pokemon enerald shiny abra GO ULTRA BALL fail and used teleport! That was a rough time :(
 
I've run across two shinies in FireRed. One was a Rattata that I managed to capture. The other was in Onix I came across while grinding in Victory Road. Unfortunately, I had no Pokeballs at the time. V_V
 
Out of the 8 years (if not more) that I've been playing the 3rd gen game I hate to say it, but I've only ran into 1 shiny Zigzagoon and that was in Emerald. Haven't witnessed a shiny Pokemon since.
 
I found a Shiny Venomoth in FireRed and a Shiny Paras in LeafGreen. I caught them both.
 
Today is really my lucky day, i caught two shiny electrike and one shiny duskull....
 
Hilariously, on a day that we had to take off because of a bomb threat (SERIOUS) my sister found a shiny Golbat in her Pokemon Emerald game. It's the only gen 3 shiny we ever had.
 
I found shiny Oddish in Emerald (which was my very first shiny) and then I soft resetted for shiny Bulbasaur in LG but that was a total accident as I was trying to get a female starter. Oh well, not complaining about the shiny !
 
I actually got a shiny Tentacool once, but I somehow released it, because I was so silly in my younger days in which I did not know the rarity of these Pokémon. Either way, it was the only shiny I got, my device containing the game died after a period of time.
 
Ok so shiny Poocheyna u face with ur starter ya after id played it so many times it finally happended and im like NO!!!!! WHY HAVE U DONE THIS TO ME!?! And then there was the time with the shiny silcoon in the forest ya i had no pokeballs on me. Pretty much rse hated me but i did catch a shiny spheal which I was quite happy with :)
 
I did find a shiny Sableye, but Ruby/Sapphire was the first game I ever played, so I didn't know anything about shinies. I just assumed all Sableye looked like that. I never bothered to catch another one. I did find out later, though.
 
Once in the beginning of emerald i encounterd a shiny poochhyena. And the color of that is so awesome! But then i lost my Emerald cartridge :(
 
Haven't found a shiny Pokémon in 3rd Gen for a while, unfortunately. The last time I got a shiny in this generation was about 3 years ago, it was a shiny Magikarp haha. It appeared when I was swimming towards the Seafoam Islands <3~
 
Well, 3 shinies only. . .

1. Poochyena! It's evolved into Mightyena soo yea. . .

2. Oddish! It's evolved into. . . . Vileplume!

3. My Shiny Treecko! Took 15,385 SRs but it was really worth it! The Nature was perfect and all!

SkorXX, Signing Off!~~
 
Only once. It was a Shiny Torchic after 40+ Soft Resets. Unfortunately, I found that Shiny Torchic on a fake Pokémon Sapphire cartridge, and in the very next hour, said fake cartridge decided to stop working. Losing that Shiny Torchic put me in a bad mood, considering that I have horrible luck when it comes to Soft Resetting.
 
I found one when I was replaying Emerald several months ago, it was a shiny Wurmple, and it's interesting because that time I didn't expect to encounter any shiny Pokémon, so it's a good thing that I have some spare Pokéballs to catch it. After battling with it, it eventually evolved into Dustox.
 
My very first shiny in the series was found in Ruby. It was a Whismur and I caught it cause I thought the poor thing was sick, haha. Green ears...idk. This is the only shiny I found by random encounter that I do not still own though. Kind of sad. :(

I also have a shiny Mightyena and Spinda in Emerald. I got them in trades from my cousin and brother respectively...for a Bagon holding a Master Ball. ;) lol
