3rd Gen Shiny Pokemon- A question...

1/8192 of finding one in the wild, or in eggs. If you want a shiny legendary soft reset after saving in front of it but you cant do that for traveling shinys so they are especially rare.
 
Here is a story:

Listen to this...I had finally made up my mind to catch a Shiny Rayquaza no matter what happened in my Emerald Version. Everyday when I had free time I would begin to soft reset my game (lets say about 500 times a day). After like 3 weeks a Shiny Rayquaza popped up. By now, I WAS SO USED TO SOFT RESETTING. Right when it appeared I pressed (start, select, A,B) and soft resetted without knowing what I just did. By NOW I WAS ABOUT TO THROW MY FREAKING D.S out the window...I couldn't stop staring at the D.S. Just out of my rage i restarted the game and I clicked on the Rayquaza again. AND WHAT YOU KNOW. Shiny Rayquaza AGAIN. O______O.

All Luck.....

:16:

I did that too with my shiny raticate because I thought it was special.
 
My first shiny (besides the Red Gyarados of the Lake of Rage) was a shiny Exeggcute in Crystal, and it was pretty nasty looking (an ugly gray or something). I did catch it, of course. Since then, I have NEVER encountered another shiny in ANY other game.
 
The only random event shiny I've ever seen was a rattata, which really fumed me.

Hey, that was my first shiny, I had a hamster at the tim so I named it after him. RIP Rocky.
 
You can find shinies anywhere throughout the game no matter when you start. once I found my first shiny before I even delivered oaks parcel. It was a shiny pidgey and i couldnt catch it because I had no pokeballs. needless to say I flipped out =P
