3rd Gen Shiny Pokemon

On the GBA Versions I've only had 2 shinies:

1. Shiny tentacool (Evolved into tentacruel) on my LG I was just surfing and I found one, wasn't trying.
2. Shiny Zubat on my Saphirre, Again just in a cave (Can't remember which) and found one.

I only saw one shiny a Nidoran and I didn't catch it on accident. Blame Safari zone. And back then I was a n00b and didn't know what a shiny was also. I might have put a little more effort in catching it.
 
Uhm on FR/LG/E/R/S/ Ive had no luck, i can chain shinies on D/P though.

I've got loads of shinies on D/P.

Once on silver i also found a shiny unown which was blue i think... i freaked and ran like a newb.
 
A Gastly in Leafgreen and a Hairyama in Emerald.
 
In Fire Red, I found a shiny Weedle which I evolved into a Beedrill. That was on GBA.

In Emerald, the only shiny I cheated for is an Eevee for the lolz (I only used the cheat to encounter Eevee but not the shiny cheat however *since I dont have it*.)

I had like 5 other normal eevees that I evolved into Vaporeon, Jolteon, Flareon, Espeon and Umbreon respectively =D.

One time I was taking a challenge from another forum, I encountered a Shiny Hariyama, luckily I had a sleeping pokemon in the lead so it was caught.
More recently on my Ruby, I was searching for Latios on the route north of slateport, doing the encounter 5 pokemon then enter bike house and exit repeat method, first I got a shiny electrike and was like "WTF?" and managed to catch it, and continued the search. Two more repeats of the method later a green minun appears, and I go "wow, hax" and catch it.

So, I have 3 3rd gen shinies, and they're all Hoenn pokes :P Didn't end up getting that Latios from Ruby yet though.
 
pokemon gold a shiny lugia : D i didn,t now that it was shiny until now ...
ruby shiny rayqeuza it killed itself -_-
 
I once found a shiny spinda....

Pics are worth a thousand words?

I have 4 shinies from the third gen. They are Poochyena, Pidgey, Lugia, and Ho-oh. I'm too lazy to talk about them, so read the info on my account if you care.

Currently I'm (casually 8D) hunting for:
FireRed - Articuno
Emerald - Cyndaquil
 
I found a shiny Oddish in my Sapphire,Sharpedo(omg purple! XDD),and a Poocheyna in the beginning of the game,but i didn't catch it because it was before the Pokedex T.T

I recently found a shiny Absol, but I ran out of balls, as i had only 3 pokeballs and 2 great balls with me at that time, other shinys i found were slugma and zubat. Im looking for a shiny electrike.
