    I don't remember what I said earlier about my first Shiny, but I finally caught my first shiny in one of the Gen IV games.

    Earlier today, while looking for a Buneary (I was in the wrong part of the Eterna Forest, haha), I found a shiny Budew. c: Nearly spazzed when I found it.

    Ive caught quite a few shinies through my playthroughs of the pokemon games, some of which kinda surprised me. My first shiny was an eevee which hatched out of an egg that I made by accident after i had mistakingly breed an eevee instead of my manaphy (both have the same nickname). I got a shiny Arceus at one of the Nintendo events, I didn't even know you could get one.

    I think my first shiny that i caught (and traded to someone) was a shiny Ghastly. I caught him in Pokemon Diamond, and called him King Boo

    My first D/P/P shiny was a shiny Squirtle that I hatched.

    The first shiny (besides the G/S/C Red Gyarados) that I obtained was a shiny Spinda that I found in Sapphire while EV training.

    Mine was Shiny Ponyta in Platinum .
    I was like HUH?! There's star and it's in different colour , did I see wrongly ?
    and I captured it and realised it's a shiny pokemon =D

    The second one was a smoochun egg which I didn't know it was shiny . It hatched and I deposited it . Then one day , I was releasing my pokemon , i discovered that smoochun was in different colour -.-"

    Third one was a few days ago when I tried capturing Giratina in the Platinum storyline which I failed after 3 times ( Giratina killed itself with Struggle 3 times) . Wasted super lots of Ultra ball and it committed suicide !
    The 4th try , it's in a different colour and know what ? I just threw my masterball at it without thinking .
