    I've only encountered one wild shiny, which was a male, LV 19 Goldeen in the Safari Zone. I threw a ball at it, but it ran on the first turn. D:

  • It was in Pokemon LeafGreen. I had a Masterball on me, saving it for Suicune. I'm on Two Island, saving Lostelle. She says there's a scary Pokemon, and a lvl30 Hypno jumps out. Guess what? It's freakin' pink!

    I neraly jumped out of the chair. After that, I just chucked a Masterball at it and imported it to Diamond ASAP.

  • I found a shiny in my friends Pearl while pointlessly running around. Blue Ponyta! I quickly traded it to my Diamond and she still doesn't know to this day.:P

    Oh, Yeah! And that Red Gyarados from G/S/C!

  • Yeah, I saw a Shiny Sandshrew in that ashy area in Emerald. I didn't catch it though 'cause I didn't have any Pokéballs with me :l
    Now I have always atleast 100 Pokéballs with me XD

  • In LeafGreen, I found a shiny Caterpie while searching for Entei above Cerulean. It took two Ultra Balls to catch. The next day, while training that shiny Caterpie (now a Buterfree) in Victory Road, I run into a shiny Geodude. I couldn't decide whether to use Stun Spore to prevent it from Self-Destructing or throw an Ultra Ball. So I chucked an Ultra Ball and I caught it.

    More recently in Sapphire, I soft resetted for 2 hours and got a shiny Mudkip.

  • 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.

    Once caught a shiny Weezing and a shiny Unown (L) on the same day. Also caught every Unown that day... That was a good day for me ^_^

  • I have about... ZERO shiny Pokemon. Aren't I cool? xD

    To be honest, I very rarely ever see them, so it amazes me how people manage to catch about 10-20 of them, when I think I've seen about maybe five in my entire life. The last one I've caught was a shiny Phanpy in Silver version. Yeah, it's been that long. =P

Ive never seen another one...

    My only shiny was... a Magikarp the first time I played Silver. The bad thing is, It was level 29 when I encountered the red Gyrados in Lake of Rage. I fail horribly.

  • I found a Shiny abra in Gold version

    All the rest were on ruby:
    2 shiny whismur,
    Shiny Electrike
    Shiny Zubat and shiny Golbat which I found in back to back fights!

    I chained on Diamond and got 2 shiny Ditto from the chain, then my game froze and I lost them :(
