my pokemon gold is really wierd like e ery tenth pokemon i run intp shiny now i have all these shyis a shiny nidoqueen and a sunkern and all these rare shinys
I've caught a shiny ditto on my real gameboy version. It's a really nice color. It is like a light shade of blue. I caught it in the Old Mansion in Cinnabar. Trained it from level 30 to level 67. When it morphs into the other Pokemon they are shiny too. Cool or what?
that's soo awsome lol when i first got ruby and saoh i caught like 5 shinys but i didn't know what they were (a glisth i thought) so I restarted my game! DOH!
COOL! I did not know that when a shiny pokemon evolves it will still be shiny! I'll remember that when I buy my leaf green cartridge in September and keep soft reseting until I get a shiny yellow bulbasaur and it becomes a shiny yellow venusaur. Anyway, I have not had the luck of seeing as many shinies as others. I of course caught the shiny garados in that lake and later in crystal I ran into a shiny blue tangela, but it ran away. Later in sapphire I caught a shiny claydol with orange eyes in sky pillar and I haven't seen any others since then. =(
I only got a desert brown cacturn while hunting for "the elusive shiny trapinch".
in silver i captured a bunch of shinys in 1 day.
mt.silver:
pink sneasel
wierd red onix???
silver flamed rapidash
of coarse red gyarados....its too rare!!
how come u all got alot of shinys in fr/lg(ratatta,pidgey,weedle,even ditto :surprised i want it)is there a better chance in fr/lg than r/s. please let it be true.
About that question //mew\\ had about Espeon/Umbreon... even though you can't trade FR/LG with G/S/C I think you can evolve Eevee into Esp/Umb in FR/LG (cuz you can get Slowking, Crobat, Steelix, etc. in FR/LG).
**BTW You do see the starter's picture before you choose it... but I don't know if the pic will be shiny even if the Pokemon is (cuz the pic you see is just saying what KIND of Pokemon it is)...
Oh, I feel so stupid n.n
I've just recently figured out what shiney pokemon are- (still not 100% sure) - and I don't think i've EVER caught one. 'Cept the shiney Gyaradose, but who doesn't catch that one...
When battling it, how do you know if its shiney? Just the colors are a bit different then usual- or does it sparkle or something?
There is a sparkle effect kinda thing that flies across them when they appear and their colours are different, so when you actually see one you can't miss that it is shiny :P
I don't think I've ever cought a shiny Pokemon besides the Golden Garados... and I've beaten every version more than once... well, besides Fire Red, and the original Green.
