The only shinies I ever caught in G/S/C were Gyarados, Rattata, and I believe a Tangela at Mt. Silver. However, I've hatched dozens of shinies via genetic breeding. I loved the gene system they used in the metallic games.. I wish they still used the same gene-->shiny system in the 3rd/4th gen games. >.>
Gene System O.O! TELL ME MOAH!!!
Despite playing Pokemon games for the past 7 years I have not caught or seen 1 shiny...
But I guess it's all about luck huh?
Actually it's not. :) I'm currently working on a huge Breeding guide that will detail how to increase your chances of getting a Shiny from an egg from 1:8,192 to 1:32, for any Pokemon, without hacking or doing any kind of Shiny Ditto or whatever glitch. Keep a lookout!
Thank you a lot in advance! :D
I've never been able to catch any shinies in my days and boy have I played a lot. And there are some pokémon I'd like to have shinies of!
