Your first Shiny?

Been playing since i was 3, literally. Found my first shiny 3 days ago. It was a Shellmet. Got a trusty friend to trade/trade-back so i now have a badass looking Accelgor.

Regards, Chris
 
To this day, I have never caught a shiny :'( - excluding Red Gyarados in Lake of Rage since that's an event in game.
 
My first shiny was a Shiny Hoothoot i caught around Mr.Pokemon's area in Crystal, I was thinking it was a glitch as it wasn't the same color as the other ones and i looked it up and i was sooooooooo happy!
 
The first shiny I saw (and caught) was a shiny Graveler that I found using the PokéRadar in Pokémon Diamond. xD
 
My first encounter with a shiny was a shiny Geodude that ran away in FireRed, First one i caught was a shiny Staravia in Diamond... I'm currently using her in my SoulSilver runthrough
 
First shiny I caught was a whismur in Pokemon Sapphire. I remember being completely new to the games and thinking I got this much better version of whismur when it was just a different colored version of it.
 
First shiny I saw was the Red Gyarados in Gold. Considering that doesn't count, the first shiny I officially caught was a Sableye in Pokemon Emerald. I was waiting for my neighbour to come and battle with me one day as we were doing a Pokemon Emerald playthrough together. He had me waiting forever so I decided to do a little training in that cave in Dewford. And walluh! I found and caught myself my very own Sableye. I named him... shiny ._.
 
my first shiny was a lavitar in the orignal pokemon silver (second gen) in 2000
sadly i couldnt transfer :-(
in third gen it was a koffing in cinnibar mansion and yes i still have it! untrained!

The latest Shiny I found was a shiny Haxorus on Black and White 2, I've captured it! Just complete the Pokedex and Juniper will give you a ticket and you can go to that resort. I found my Haxorus there.
 
My first shiny was a shiny goldeen in heartgold. I nearly died when I found him.
 
Besides the red gyarados, the only shiny I've seen, or caught was a shiny bidoof in the safari zone on pearl. lol
 
My very first shiny was an Oddish in pokemon silver! I remember being in awe over it after I realized my game wasn't glitching - it was a new feature!

And it's funny, my second shiny was an oddish on that same game too. I never got another until last year, my shiny zubat on HeartGold! Johto just loves me I think.
 
The first shiny I saw was a tangela in Crystal, it ran away :( Then I spent a good ten minutes looking for it again not understanding how shiny pokemon work :/
 
Shiny Gyarados on gold? beside that Shiny Nidoran in Leaf Green's best place to find a Shiny Pokemon.... Safari Zone... It escaped.... the first I realy caught was in Emerald a Shiny Ralts, I was hunting modest Ralts when I found my precious thing, I cloned it a few times and began to sell them to friends. Now I am the proud owner of a Shiny Gardevoir and Galade on Diamond (my laziness at the time not training it directly was my biggest luck)
 
Absol was the first shiny Pokémon I ever caught back in Ruby. Unfortunately, being a naive little kid back then, I didn't know how rare finding a Shiny Pokémon even was. To make matters worse, when I first encountered the shiny Absol, I didn't even recognize that it was a different color than normal. I was lucky enough to be looking for one at the time and managed to catch it, otherwise I would have let it get away.

It's too bad I liked re-playing Ruby so much though, because I no longer have it anymore.
 
First shiny.. was a Voltorb back in Pokemon G/S/C. I thought I glitched the game somehow, but caught the Voltorb regardless. It was blue and awesome and I was 6. xD
