    Hey I just joined I've been looked for a good pokemon forum for a while and I think I've found the right place.

    Back to topic, has anyone ever capture a shiny Pokemon besides the Gyarados? I capture a gold Caterpie which is now a pink Butterfree, along with Mew it's one of my greatest poke-related achievements.
     
    the first pokemon i cought after getting my Bulbasaur on FireRed was a shiny Pidgey. On Ruby as soon as I walked out of Team Magma's hideout I caught a shiny Wingull.
     
    I believe on my Gold version I caught a red Machoke. Can't remember where it was though. These Pokémon really appear so unexpectedly.
     
    I've caught a black Zubat, and now it's a black Golbat, and when I was fishing on the route above Vermillion city, I got a light blue Poliwirlh:D now it's a green Poliwrath
     
    I had a chance to get some shiny legendaries but they were event pokemon and I wanted originals. I hope I get a shiny sometime soon.
     
    my shinies:
    purple Hypno
    pink Nidorina
    lighter Jynx
    orange Donphan
    black-and-white Eevee
    purple Charizard
    gold Pidgeot
    grey Fearow
    silver Dragonite with purple wings
     
    i just caught a shiny weedle in my crystal cartridge i evolved it into beedril(i don't remember the color of it)
    but it got deleted cuz of PokeRus
     
    I've caught a shiney Nidoran (male) in Crystal thats about it. But I did that thing where you trade Shiney Gyrados to r/b/y and then encounter a Ditto and let it transform into the Gyrados. I caught the Ditto after and transferred it back to my Crystal and sure enough it was Shiney. Then I bred it with several other Pokemon, I ended up with Shiney: Magby, Elekid, Squirtle and Charmander :)Of course it doesn't work 100% of the time, but it was nice to get some. Does this still work in D/P?
     
    Shiny Lugia :D


    Caught it last month after talking to it a million times, DX
     
    Shiny Latia's, and one of my friends has a shiny latios. I'm still bugging him for it. XP
     
    I got a shiny latias
    that was pure luck and talkin to it with an Eon ticket
    (It took age's)
    Ive also got a shiny Torkoal which is worthless to me

    on gold and silver
    different story
    I got six shinys on that game
    Snorlax
    Lapras
    Lugia
    Ho oh
    Entei
    houndour

    the first four were me talking and reseting
    the other 2 were pure luck
    oh an as far as I know
    shinyness don't get passed down through breeding as a deffinet (the baby won't deffinitly be a shiny pokemon)
    you still get the 1/8000something chance of getting it

    In GSC, you can pass down shininess through breeding. If one parent is shiny, the odds of the child being shiny are 1/64. (It's impossible to breed two shiny Pokemon, so the odds are never more than that.)
