ITT- post your most prized shiny that you caught yourself
pic realated
Does masuda count or literally caught only?
The cutest
Random encounter on route 10.

yeah i guess that counts, basically any shiny u didnt trade for or clone/hack
also love this one, caught it after many failed chain attempts
MM'd this guy in <200 eggs with HA and everything.

>didn't hatch a female before this one
>Hustle
>Pentaperfect
>only 4 in attack
I'm so glad he came out perfect in every way, as a homage to the shiny Nidorino I caught in Silver
First and only Masuda I've intentionally done just to say I've done it before. 780 eggs isn't so bad I guess and it had 31IVs in all the right stats, but I'm not doing it again. Hatched a shiny Klefki a while later, but that was just lucky fluke in between breeding one for battle.
I caught a shiny pupitar in Y, evolved it up to poke-godzilla
i named herpam beesly
I don't catch very many shinies...
I have several MM, SR, and random shinies, some of which with perfect IVs, but my favorite shinythat I still haveis my Roserade from my Pearl version. She's the first Pokemon I ever successfully chained, and I was just getting into competitive Pokemon at the time so I was super excited that she has a decent nature. I almost feel guilty for trading away the 5 shiny Budew I chained after her. Almost.My favorite shiny of all time was the shiny extreme speed Dragonite I got in Crystal. Lost her to a dying Silver battery. ;_;

That's great.
First shiny I ever got, became my main man in Pokemon Emerald
Does exploiting BW2's easy RNG and *technically* catching it fair count?

My girlfriend ran into this shiny and she just killed it, didn't like how it looked.
first shiny. caught her as a zubat in Platinum, oreburgh mine
have her in XY now, still use her in battles against family/friends. she's been my trademark mon since I caught her
I've caught other shinies since, sat unused in the box. nothing beats your first.

She has shit moves and a shit nature, but she will always be my bro. Transferred her up to ORAS and she's the Pokemon on my secret base poster.
My only shiny. Was trying to find a Wailmer that takes the least amount of effort to evolve (i.e. already level 40) but then this level 30 asshat popped up and I had to train it 10 levels to evolve.

I lost her, my first shiny, she was a golbat I caught in the tower on the way to Rayquaza.
was trying to get a dusk stone on pgl while trying to hatch a 6iv bagon and this precious little princess hatched right after i got my stone ggez she's almost perfect aswell (only missing 2iv in sp.atk.)
that day, i used at of my luck for this year ;;
Post screens, you cunts.
My first shiny and the only one that I've encountered, I was lucky to catch her. (I have 3 other shinies that I got in wonder trade.)
>>26437078
same with me.
it was literally the only shiny I ever found in my entire life playing pokemon
Found in a 631 chain on a mirage island that I was on for 3 days

I just caught my first shiny ever this morning but it's a +attack gastly and it's in platinum with no way to move it anyway.
Started a new game in OR a long time ago, decided to mess around and chain for a female Ralts with an egg move while I train. On a chain of 4 my shiny male popped up. He later grew to be a Gallade named Sevat.
