WHAT IS A SHINY POKEMON AND HOW DO U GET IT?

A shiny pokemon is a pokemon that is a different color than it's specie would normally be. It's just an easter egg though, it doesn't do anything except look cool. The only way to get them is to find them in the wild by chance. The only way you could actually find a shiny pokemon was the Red Gyrados in the Lake of Rage in GSC. It's all luck. There's no way to increase your luck of finding one, and your chances are extrememly slim. Good luck on finding one though.

You know...the chances of that is very slim and you'll spend a lot of time doing it. That chances are like one to over sixty thousand. That infinite masterball code isn't going to help you in finding them.

Ive got a shiny Pelipper, shiny Steelix, shiny Ditto, shiny charizard, shiny mewtwo, and shiny scizor. Note: I used toe always shiny code for AR.
 
believe it or not, i got 16 legitimate shinies on ruby.
i forgot many of them, but latios, groudon, and rayquaza were 3 of them
 
in ruby i caught a shiny Golbat,
then after a while i got bored of ruby cause id done all i could in it, so i restarted the game....i shouldve waited till i got sapphire then traded it
i didnt know a green and purple golbat was rare...wish i did
 
today i caught a shiny natu.
 
I HAVE A SHINEY PIDGEY CAUGHT HIM IN THE WILD ..AND I FOUND A SHINEY MACHOP...BUT i FAINTED IT
 
I have caught a shiny Dr Oak once :D

Nah seriosly, i didnt know there were shiny pokemon in ruby and sapphire... Theyre stats are better than usual, arent they..?

Is it like in Pokemon gold, that when you meet a shiny pokemon (i just met red gyarados), the pokemon "glows up" a bit and have a special symbol beside theyre name?
 
I just found out today Ruby/Sapphire has shiny Pokemon, and it was a total surprise.

My playtime is almost 200 hours and before today I had never encountered a shiny Pokemon. Then suddenly, bam I run across a shiny Hariyama. Lucky me it doesn't use Whirlwind and I catch it.

I have no idea how shiny Pokemon in Ruby/Sapphire work, but I remember very well that in Gold/Silver shiny Pokemon would have higher offensive stats, and lower defensive stats than the non-shiny version of the same Pokemon.

I used to fanatically use a Gameshark with my Silver/Gold and catch nothing but shiny Pokemon all the time.. and I am positive the shiny versions of Pokemon have higher attack stats and weaker defence stats than the normal versions of Pokemon.

It may or may not be the same in Ruby/Sapphire, I don't know at this point. Ever since my dog ate my Gameshark for my Gameboy Color I haven't bothered to buy a Gameshark for my Gameboy Advance SP.

Hmmm... guess I'll have to start Ruby all over again and use the "save the game then encounter a legendary Pokemon over and over and over again until it randomly spawns as a shiny version of itself" trick.
 
I found out recently that - after hacking the game, not personally but from people who do - shiny Pokemon have a minimum score of 10 IV in each of their 6 stats. So, they'll have a stat range between 10-31 instead of 0-31. Makes them slightly above average in terms of stats.

Can't remember where I found this out, I think it was somewhere on GameFAQs.
