    Have you ever saw a shiny pokemon and what was it?

    I saw a shiny paras in mt moon on Leaf green, not the best of pokemon to be shiny but i caught it anyway.

    I was really unlucky. In the Battle Pike in Emerald, I went through a wrong door and it was a room with wild pokemon. In the Pike, you can't catch pokemon, so what did I encounter? A shiny Dusclops

    My first shiny pokemon was a Spheal in Ruby, I didn't even realise it was shiny I just thought it was cute so I caught it.

    Go my now Stallrein (evolved on D/P so it has Ice Body)

    That same file (Ruby) I also got a shiny Wingull

    The only random encounter shiny I ever found on R/S/E/FR/LG was an Exeggcute on LG when I was looking for a Kangaskhan.

    The only shiny i ever saw was in Emerald in meteor falls, a shiny zubat, I would have caught it, but i hate zubat and his evos, even shiny ones.

    I've encountered two shiny Pokemon in my Advance Generation games; the first being a Zubat in a tunnel in my Firered version. Naturally, I was devastated to find out I had no Poke Balls left. The second time I ran into a shiny Pokemon was in my Leafgreen version. I was fishing for a Krabby up where you used to be able to find Missingno. with the Blue and Red versions and I started battling a silver Staryu. Thankfully, I caught the shiny that time and it now resides in my Diamond version.

    In firered, I found a shiny ponyta on my way back from catching moltres, which is now a rapidash in my pearl. I also saw a shiny shellder in crystal while training through fishing, but my only ultra ball failed >=(.

    In FR, I caught a shiny Rattata really early in the game. I've insisted that it remain on my main team simply because of that. :D
    My friend recently caught a shiny Pidgey in his FR.

    All of the other shinies I've found are in Gold, but eh.


    Shinies are pretty much the reason I always stock up on ridiculous amounts of Pokeballs, no matter where I am in the game.
