6th Gen Your Gen VI Shiny Pokémon

Last night I caught a Shiny Spearow from a friend safari I recently added. I was literally blown away! Although it had Keen Eye ability, I really don't mind that at all. This became my first LEGIT CAUGHT shiny Pokemon and I feel so proud of myself <33
 
So, I was playing Pokemon X, the first time in what a month now. (Too. Much. Spore.)
I go into a Friend Safari Zone and look around for some Pokemon.

In my friend safari I find rock types, onix and nosepass, then.... 'sandstone' Rhydon. FREAKING Rhydon. I used my Scyther against 'her' and captured.
I felt pretty good after that ordeal. :)
 
I completed my National Dex yesterday and before that I had never encountered a shiny in my 10+ years and now I've found a Haunter, Corsola and a Corphish
 
I've been playing X for about a month and I already caught a Shiny Bunnelby, an Shiny Honedge and a Shiny Hawlucha. I couldn't really believe it cause I hadn't seen a Shiny in the wild since Leaf Green.
 
I have caught a shiny Dwebble at the Friend Safari. Considering my bad history with shinies in previous gens (a Seaking fled at the Safari Zone, and my partner had a shiny Yanma in the battle frontier in Emerald, just in the first battle, in the others it was normal, leading me to think that the chances of a shiny there is the same as a wild shiny Pokémon...), is not bad...
 
I just started my Pokemon Y adventure after completing my Pokemon X game, and I was hunting for a Riolu in my team on Route 22, when suddenly I just ran into a Shiny Bidoof (xD)...

Ah well it's still a Shiny so I caught it anyway ;) (remember chances are 1/4096 which isn't that bad imo but still...). My first random encounter in the wild after only 2 hours playtime (and my first Shiny in Pokemon Y) :3
 
Here are all the shinies I caught in Pokémon X & Y:

I'll only name Kalos caught/hatched/GTs shinies

Skarmory - got on Friend Safari right after I added someone with Steel
Pretty cool but ivs is in the wrong stats xD

Druddigon - Not even making this up. I wasn't paying attention when i was just training my pokemon while watching that 70's shows, but as a precaution i always tell myself "look at what your killing, it can be a shiny" Since X & Y Camera rotates, at first i couldn't see the driddigon because the camera was rotating around my pokemon, so instead of just spamming the move to kill the pokemon, i waited the 5 secs to see if it was shiny or not, and by god it was a shiny. lol.

Dunsparce - Actually my second shiny dunsparce from Friend Safari. It's cause I have eevee and Audino in the same safari, so i tried to get a HA Eevee one time, and it came up, and the next time was jsut training against audinos. Too bad both times dunsparce was the shiny :/

Clawitzier - Chain fighisng after like less than 20 chains tbh, but don't really care for chain fishing shinies, so i traded it away.

Shelmet - got it off GTS, forgot what i traded it for, i think it was lvl 1 Glaceon xD

Sneasel, something similar to above^

Geodude - Horde

Wingull - Horde

Illumse - Friend Safari from same person who gave away the shiny pumkaboos. so that's two shinies in less than ten mins xD

Magmortar - trade from gts, but it's hacked, and idgaf bout hacked pokemon.

and my pride and joy right now. My first ever MM shiny in any generation - Honedge. took 708 eggs.


Guess i don't have the worst luck with shinies. afterall, i have encountered shinies since pokemon crystal. Actually hatched a shiny Smoochum, and ran into shiny Kadabra, and weedlie in Crystal. Magikarp, chinchou, and mudkip in Sapphire.
 
Was trying to find a shiny horsea and instead found a shiny clauncher :/ I am not complaining as this is my first shiny ever caught but really wanted a horsea :(
