I've never seen a shiney in my Fire Red, Ruby, or Sapphire. T_T I've played for a long time too, maybe 150 hours total, of course I've restarted a lot so I could never know for sure.

I know. I have been playing for like 300 hours on my Sapphire and I keep trying to find a shiny pokemon, but I can't find one! Its like 1 in 6000 or something. I gotta keep trying though.

But once I did catch a shiny Zubat in Silver.

I wish I had a shiny *sigh* Ive been looking for a shiny spinda while collecting ashes. Do the sparkes still appear around them when there shing in ruby/sapphire? And what games can you get shinys from?

Thanks,
Aaron

Yes, shiny Pokemon do have the sparkle in the Advance games. You can find a shiny Pokemon in Ruby, Sapphire, Fire Red, Leaf Green, Emerald and possibly Colosseum. The chance is actually 1 in 8192. Don't give up hope! I, too, struggled for endless hours only to come up empty-handed until about a month ago when I found a shiny Claydol in the Sky Pillar. And just now, I found a shiny Golbat in the Sky Pillar (which is what brought me here to this thread right now). It's more likely that you'll find one when you're not expecting it rather than searching in one spot forever. I found both of mine while I was training. Anyways, hope this helps.

Okay so I'm 36 and I love playing Pokemon: how sad is that? :bandit:
I've got two shinies (don't count red Gyarados since that was sort of handed to me on a platter). Found a shiny Golbat in the first cave a Meteorite Falls in Sapphire. I wondered what was happening when it sort of sparkled when it first appeared. Caught it then realised it was not the normal colour. Also caught a Shiny Doduo in the Safari zone in Leaf Green.

What I find disappointing is that the only shinies I've fopund so far are so drab! Hardly worth the name 'Shiny@... :disappoin
