    W00000T!! I just caught a shiny Drowzee about 1/2 an hour ago! I named him Apocalypse, I love him soooooooooooo much!! It's gonna take a while before Apocalypse is caught up to Serenity and Orville though, they are at level 33 while Apocalypse is only at level 15 at the moment. ^^
    The sad thing is, whenever I am not looking for a shiny, they seem to pop up all over the place. And when I want to look for one, I never see any! XD

    I haven't been able to find one in FR, but the odds were for me in Sapphire, in a sad ironic sort of way.

    I came across six shinies total, 2 of which were Zubat and the other 2 Wingull. I don't even like shiny Zubat's color, and of all the Pokemon I had to encounter 2 of them? Wingull wasn't any more spectacular, either.

    The other one is a Makuhita, and the last was a Koffing, but I evolved it.

    I haven't caught a "Shiny" yet.. ^^;; Any suggestions where to go ??

    Any where really. The odds of finding a shiny in one place is the same as anywhere else as far as I know.

    In GSC you had a greater chance of getting a shiny if you bred a shiny. In Ru/Sa/Fr/Lg, you have equal chance no matter what you do.

    Actualy, you can see shinys for 100% sure in the Trainer Tower (Lg/Fr). I think there a Shiny Espeon and Seaking somewhrere in there:).

    The ferry doesn't take you straight to the Trainer's Tower. You have to take it to Seven Island then head north to find it.

    FireRed Deoxys, it's true that you have to defeat the Elite Four to reach the Sevii Islands, but you also have to get the Nationl Dex from Prof. Oak by talking to him once you have 60+ recorded Pokemon. If you don't have the National Dex, you can only reach One, Two, and Three Island, none of which contain the Trainer's Tower.

    Read the FRLG FAQ or read the Sevii Islands Guide on my site for more information on that stuff.

    ok, can shiny pokemon be different colors of shiny? like, for example, black charizard, blue charizaer, green charizard, and things like that? and i still haven't found a site of place with what every shiny would look like...couldn't it just be calculated? i bet it is a program that takes the original color and changes it, and if that is the case, one could figure out what a shiny would look like if they had the original, unless of course they do change, like the different charizards

    Nope, it's either a normal color or a shiny. One shiny color only for each Pokemon.

    well, black charizard is still awesome... anyway, would it be possible to cheat to make an already existing pokemon that you own into a shiny, or do you have to generate a whole new pokemon?
