In my FireRed, I found a shiny Geodude and managed to catch it before it used selfdestruct (it had it--I checked afterward). Talk about nerve-wracking. My first shiny, ever, and it's a poke that usually LOVES to blow up on you whenever you really want to catch it, lol. It was awesome though because literally 1 hour later, I was on one of the islands and found a shiny Sentret XD
Recently I was replaying Emerald and training for the E4 in Victory Road, and I was not really paying attention, just biking around and KOing random pokemon. Then all of the sudden, as a wild Hariyama came on the screen and just before I selected a move to kill it, I noticed it was shiny and stopped myself XD I eventually caught it, thankfully, but it was only afterward that I remembered it would have had whirlwind >_< That battle lasted like 15 turns too (taking capture attempts into account), so I guess I was just REALLY lucky.
