  • I've only found shinies in my Silver, even though I have played Crystal the longest. I was just lucky in Silver, but now the internal battery has died so I don't have any shinies anymore... The two shinies I found in Silver were Drowzee (purple) and Rhyhorn. (almost same color?) I didn't train them or anything, but it was cool to have them. :P

    Now that I think about it, I remember that I saw a shiny Wurmple in Emerald, but accidently fainted it. I didn't want it anyways.. Just wanted to catch it because my friend wanted it (at the time we were both playing at his house, so we were looking over each others shoulders to see everything we were doing).

  • The first shiny I ever encountered was a shiny Poochyena on Emerald. However, I was about 8 back then, and didn't know what a shiny Pokemon was, or its value. So, I restarted the file. ;_;
    The next one was about a year later, when I encountered a shiny Bellsprout on LeafGreen, east of Celadon. I caught it, since I had learned about shinies now, but I can't seem to find it. Maybe I deleted the file... I just don't know.
    Then, a year ago, I found a shiny Sandshrew on the same game, west of Cerulean City. I have now migrated it to Diamond, and plan to evolve it.
    In August, I was playing Diamond, chaining Tauros, and on the third Tauros, I found a shiny patch. Then I encountered a shiny Tauros. I caught him, and named him Lemon-Lime, after his colors.
    Only a month later, I was EV training my Gible, randomly encountering wild Pokemon, when I found a shiny Shinx. I caught her and named her Nefertiti. :)
    That's it! I'll probably post again when I find another shiny Pokemon.
    Right now, I'm aiming for a shiny Pidgey, Zigzagoon, or Surskit on Diamond. Too bad they only come in swarms...

  • Yeah the first ever shiny I encountered was in pokemon crystal, it was a rhyhorn, but when I was young I had no idea about shinies so I thought I was seeing things when it sparkled, and I ran, I found out about this a few weeks ago and was devastated.
