After playing pokemon for 17 years, I finally caught my first legitimate shiny in my brother's copy of SoulSilver. It's a fucking stantler. What was /vp/'s first shiny?
>>
Mareep.
>>
A Red Gyarados, on Island 1 in Fire Red. No shit.
>>
Mine was a Rapidash in Gold.
>>
Mudkip in RSE
>>
I wish to God you could name it Fluorestantler.
>>
Zigzagoon in Sapphire. I didn't meant to catch it either, I just ran in grass and boom, Shiny.
>>
A deerling
>>
>>26687543
Machoke in Platinum while I was gridning outside Mt. Coronet
>>
>>26687543
Geodude in FireRed at Mt. Moon. I didn't even knew about shinies so I just caught it and and boxed it.
>>
>>26687543
A Minun, caught it in the back seat of our car when we were parking, it was pretty neat.

All the shinies I've ever caught were Minun, Zigzagoon, Kadabra, Geodude, Ursaring, Clefairy, Audino, Oddish.

The best thing about the Clefairy was that I caught it in a Moon Ball. Like the only time you'd even want to use a Moon Ball.
>>
my first shiny was a Lunatone in black at the giant chasm i think. I restarted the file not long ago to start a new run so its gone forever now.
>>
Vivillon, in a Friend Safari. Which was pretty cool because I collect them.
>>
>>26687543
Shiny Drifloon in Pokemon Pearl. I miss that slow game.
>>
Electrike, I killed it because I thought my game was just glitching.
>>
Sewaddle in Black.
>>
Geodude back in Diamond.
>>
>>26687543
Lombre in XY

His name is Lopez.
>>
>>26687543
Mine was a shiny Geodude ;_; I then proceeded to get a shiny Geo in every gen I played up until Gen 6.

I don't even like Geodude and his shiny form just looks like a golden poop.
>>
dewgong in leafgreen.
>>
Ratata in Black 2
>>
>>26687543
a pickup bunnelby. wonder traded it
>>
Donphan in silver, I still have him in one of my gen 2 games.
>>
>>26687543
a spinarak in crystal
>>
Mine was caterpie in gen 3 then tangala in gen 4
>>
Onix in Hearthold desu
Then 5 days later, a Ponyta
>>
A pidgeotto in silver. I thought my game was broken because I never saw a shiny before (besides red gyarados).
>>
The first I remember is a shiny Taillow I got in Emerald (and then deleted when I reset the file a day later)

I think I got another one before then, but I might just be thinking of the Red Gyarados
>>
An Unown in the original gold version

my first and only shiny was a poliwag that i chain fished for.

It was a Spearow on route 4 in Gold version, probably in 2002
>>
Audino. Made me appreciate the pokemon a little more, shame about its mega.
>>
golbat in gen 3
>>
Stunky in gen VI
>>
Torchic in RSE. I was like 7 and didn't even know it was shiny until my Ruby was stolen and I had to start over on a new copy
>>
>>26687543
Hairyarma. Super disappointed. Caught in emerald while grinding in Victory road. Thankfully not the ugliest looking shiny.

A shiny Goldeen in Pearl. I was replaying the game because I had nothing beter to do at that time.
>>
I feel like I may have had a shiny or two in GSC but the first I remember catching is a Wingull in DPPt
>>
A Pidgey in fire red in a run where I told myself I wasn't going to use that lone because I always use one in Kanto and bam first encounter after balls is a shiny bastard so of course I took him all the way to the hall of fame with me
>>
zubat with almost zero speed IV's
>>
Machop in FireRed, was my bro all the way up until Platinum
>>
Shiny bouffalant in white
>>
who /shiny virgin/ here?
>>
Teddiursa in Gold
>>
First shiny was in Y, in that weird fps cave
>>
A blue-eyed lunatone in Sapphire.

I didnt even know what shinies were at the time.
>>
>>26687543
A Wurmple that turned into Beautifly, but I lost it. The oldest one that I have is a Sunflora I caught in the Emerald Safari Zone. Safari Shinys were stressful af, but I've snagged a couple (Quagmire and Bibarel in Pearl being the others)
>>
>>26687543
Does the Red Gyarados count in GSC? If not, then a shiny Shellder I hatched in HGSS. This was followed by a shiny Venipede in White, and then a shiny Durant in X.
>>
Shiny Exeggcute in Firered. Never did anything with it.
>>
>>26687543
My first shiny was a Golden Ratata in Black. Found it near the big tree in Castelia City
>>
>>26689784
Yeah, I guess technically the lake gyarados is a shiny. I never counted it though. I also don't count the hacked action replay shiny legendaries that I "found" in tall grass when I played through Pearl in high school.
>>
Shiny Vibrava in Diamond.
>>
Shiny Clefairy in Pearl. Was just heading to Hearthome and I ran into that little fucker fucking around in Mt. Coronet. Caught it and named it Green Ears because my 10 year old self couldn't think for shit. Needless to say I left it in my PC to rot until I restarted the game.
>>
First ever was a Magikarp in Sapphire. Second was a Snover in Diamond. And third and last was a Golbat in Crystal.
>>
>>26687543
I have been trying to find a shiny for so long, and it just won't happen. The chances are 1 in 4000 right? I've met at least that many Pokemon.
>>
Pink Wooper that I accidentally deleted because I forgot to save.
I've never forgotten again.
>>
Weepinbell in silver. I was hunting for Raikou in some random route it was in at the time and bam
>>
First one I actually found was a shiny Tentacruel in FireRed. I wasted all my balls trying to catch it and failed. Still mad.
First one caught was a shiny Starly in Diamond. It was the first wild Pokemon I saw, so I'd say that was lucky.

The shiny Skitty turned out to be Adamant, so I've kept her around for a while. She was one of my main walking buddies in HG/SS. The Misdreavus is now evolved and on my competitive team. The rest just hang out in the box.
>>
Didnt even catch it, my atarter torchich was shiney, thought it was glitched for a while.

A Gyarados in X. Been playing since FR/LG.

Got a Clauncher and Staryu after that, too.
>>
>>26690673
You should have saved your masterball dude. Oak tried to warn you.
>>
>>26687543
Magneton in abandoned hotel. Was a great catch actually.
>>
Azurril in Black 2.
>>
Heracross in rse. I didn't even realize or know what shinies were and it wasn't till i saw a regular heracross in pearl that i noticed the difference. But that copy of pearl is gone now, along with my golden pigeot from firered
>>
mine was a magikarp on the route after mahogany town in the original silver

I shit you not
>>
First seen was a Sentret before I was given any pokeballs.
First caught was a Gastly while on my way to grab a Rotom in the Old Chateau.
First bred was an Omanyte (never going to evolve it into Omastar because it looks like ass cancer).
>>
Totodile, just got it a few days ago too. Took me a full day of soft resetting, but some people have it worse so I'm thankful.
>>
A bidoof in Diamond. My 2nd shiny was earlier this year. A Marill in AS.
>>
Psyduck in Gold Version.
>>
Seviper in emerald
>>
Axew in White, I was so happy.
>>
a friend of mine sold me his diamond version and it had a shiny tentacruel on it

the first one I actually found myself though was a deerling not long after b/w came out
>>
Shiny Tentacool in Sapphire.
>>
>>26687543
Smoochum way back in Gold.
>>
Gulpin. But with that catch I started a Renessaince in shiny hunting and got 18 more shinys after not even a half a year ago.
>>
>>26687543
Aside from the obvious Red Gyarados, a shiny Caterpie in Crystal. I found it after beating the elite four on my way back to Violet City.

And then I ran into it again in the exact same location in Heart Gold somehow, so they both managed to make it to Gen 6 one way or another.
>>
>>26687543
Having played pokemon since gen 1, Red Gyarados was technically the first, but that one hardly counts.

My first legit shiny encounter didn't happen until gen 5 or 6's release (I don't remember which), and I was replaying FR... in a nuzlocke. I had to kill it since I had already caught a pokemon in the route, so there goes that.

My first owned shiny was a Ghastly in XY that came about during IV breeding. Luckily, she had perfect IVs, so she became my "main" pokemon for the Ghost team I was building. I tend to get a few shinies when breeding, so much of that initial "wow" factor is kinda gone. Not that that's a bad thing, imo; it's still cool to see them, but I don't go out of my way to get one..

My first caught shiny was a Whishmur, also in XY, during a horde battle. Never really used it in much capacity, only enough to evolve it to Loudred.
>>
>>26687898
Mine was a Seviper. You are now my rival.
>>
>>26687543
Tentacruel.
>>
Fearow in Diamond
>>
>>26692861
I thought seviper's rival was zangoose, not zizagoon, anon
>>
>>26687543
Magikarp in silver.

Shiny sneasel in crystal (treasured it and raised it to 100 because I liked the color).

Then a shiny corphish in gba sapphire, which doesn't stand out much.

That's pretty much it if you don't count events or Pokemon fan games/hacks, where I seem to have much better luck finding shinies, despite most of them having the exact same odds of finding them as the real games.
>>
>>26687543
My first 3 shinies were Zubats in ruby
I found all three of them in the same cave on different playthrough
Didn't even know what a shiny was so I just thought it was a scripted event like the red gyarados in johto

I had a Spinda and a Whismur in Emerald, but I lost the cart somehow. After that, I saw a Pidgey in LeadGreen on a solo run, but managed to kill it.

My first caught wild shiny was pic related. My first bred shiny was a Solosis. My first soft-reset shiny was Lugia.
>>
>>26692883
same... and my second?
tentacruel again.

I hadn't run into a legit shiny for a very long time after that though (like actually 13 years or so). I think the next shiny I got was a cubchoo in x/y in frost cavern. I had pretty good luck after that, even outside of the friend safari.

I'm going to count Cubchoo as true first, because tentacruel are the sea zubat.

Tentacruel. Thank god i like poison types.

>>26693267
Oh and it was silver or crystal. Cant remember.
>>
My first shiny was this little motherfucker with the Masuda method before I even knew it existed(I ramdomly got a japanese ditto over the GTS) and the best thing is, I shit you not, I got on the first try.
>>
A Geodude or Graveler in Pearl.
>>
An Oddish in Ruby. Didn't know what a shiny was, thought it was an event mon, even brought it to show the Professor and nothing. Figured it was just a glitch, boxed it then saved over it later without transferring it.
>>
Gligar in Gold
>>
I assume OP doesn't count Gold and Silver's guaranteed shiny Gyarados. Assuming that's the case, my first shiny catch was a Zubat in Leaf Green, with my first shiny hatch being a Ralts in Pearl.
>>
Zubat... (That I accidentally killed.)
>>
>>26687543
Blue Psyduck in Ruby.
>>
I swear to god, a Mew on Gold. It was the second pokémon I saw. Then I realised my bag had masterballs and it was a hackrom.
>>
>>26687543
Shiny Snubbull in Pokémon Y. Showed up randomly when looking for Eevees.
>>
Excluding Red Gyra from the original Silver, it took me till BLACK to catch a shiny in the wild.

Is the shiny rate changed in XY because I've encountered a bunch now.

Didn't get my first shiny until my first Y play through, victory road on my way to the E4 a shiny graveller popped out of nowhere. Didn't explode and I caught it
>>
>>26687543
My first was a Swinub in Ice Path in Soul Silver. Then I got a shiny Sawsbuck in a Friend Safari in XY, then a shiny Zigzagoon in ORAS, which I used on my team.

Weepinbell in Pearl
>>
>>26687543
First shiny I ever saw was an electrode in the rocket base in crystal. Used self-destruct. The only other shiny I've ever found was a wurmple in emerald that turned into a dustox
>>
Hoothoot in Crystal
>>
a kakuna in Silver.
Though my copy of silver was bugged and shinies appeared way more often than they should have, so I ended up with a shitload.

After that silver game, I didn't catch any shinies until Alpha sapphire, where I found a shiny Ralts shortly after helping wally catch his Ralts. carried it throughout the game, ended up using my Mega shiny Gardevoir to beat his Mega Gallade. Poetic.

Also in AS I found a shiny Magikarp, traded it for some legendary as I already had red Gyarados from Heartgold.

shinx in pearl

I've had quite a bit of encounters throughout playing the game.

Shiny Meowth in Silver
Shiny Slugma in Emerald
Shiny Tentacool in Emerald. Which I ran away from then proceeded to put down the game for ever.
Shiny Nidoran male in FireRed
Shiny Wooper in Pearl, the shitty part was it was in the great swamp and it ran away.

I'm not counting the shinies in Friend Safari though.

Bellsprout in Crystal

Wingull in Sapphire. I was fishing for Wailord--so I could get the Regis that I recently heard of--when I was near lower Mossdeep and decided to head south like I was herding them and it just popped out of nowhere.I didn't even think shinies were a thing besides Gyarados from CSG. I was like, "WTF why is it sparkling? Is that green? Is my game gonna die?"

Swablu in Sapphire on Route 114. Still have yet to touch it after 10 years. Maybe I should now the Mega Altaria is a thing

Shiny spearow in FR. Aleays found it funny because the regular spearow I caught, I named Shine.
Second was recently in the same game. Caught a shiny zubat after finally beating the game and being able to get my zubro to a crobat. I'm immediately going to replace him because my heart only has room for six.

I think my first shiny encounter (not first catch) was replaying Pokémon White to see if it was fun enough to restart. Ran into a shiny patrat(sp?) And caught it, thinking hell yes I'm gonna restart. I'd throw all my hard work and time away for a shiny. Didn't know about the save safety that new games had. I was devastated.

Next was a shellos in diamond. The west one. Then I got a shiny palpitoad in white. Those are the only ones I've caught.
I've bred two shinies already since then. A buneary I gave to my sister because she asked and an extra large pumpkaboo that I'm gonna out into Sun. Pic related.

A shiny Totodile doing soft resets, the bad thing is that it had the worst nature ever for him (that one that lowers your attack and increases your Sp. Attack).

Also i obtained in a pirated version of Heart Gold so yeah not even legitimate

Ghastly in heartgold and trapinch in XY

>>26687543
A Pidgey in Crystal

By the time i had like 9 and I thought it was a bug (playing on an emulator)
I told my friends that I caught a green pidgey and they said it was bullshit

Later, replaying crystal, now knowing what a shiny was, I found a shiny weedle post-game. I completely freaked out and tried as hard as I could to catch it but
1- I had completely over-leveled mons so I couldn-t weaken it
2- It died out of struggle
>mfw

Later I chain-fished a Corsola in X on a friends game, but there's no fun on those kind of shinies

Hope to find one now tho

A torkoal in my friend's copy of Emerald that I was borrowing.

My first shiny was a Meowth in LeafGreen

I'm upset however, I've ran into 2 Shinies in HGSS, 3 shinies in B2, and 3 shinies in Y before I put the series down for awhile

I haven't ran into a single shiny in OR yet.
>>
First ever shiny was a Starly in Pearl after starting a new game.

Was training Piplup and Budew before I went to battle the Rival, and despite Piplup being low on HP, I went for one more encounter.
Bam, shiny Starly. Manged it catch it after it broke out twice (had only 4 balls at the time).

Actually. I just remembered I caught a shiny Volcarona on Blackl version. It may not count however. I was self-resetting for a Male and found it in like 10 SRs. This was also in black version.

Mine was a Magikarp around level 60 when I was playing around fishing in the Resort Area in Platinum after accidentally coming across a level 74 Magikarp and thinking I could farm good xp. I evolved it right away and gave it some good moves, and then like a week later maybe even less HG/SS was announced and I knew my shiny Gyarados was going to become worthless.

Came across a shiny Seaking in Gold. Never caught it because I was a dipshit and had absolutely zero balls on me

Whismur in Emerald, got it in middle school. It's gone now though, I decided to delete all my games because I thought I had an unhealthy obsession with Pokémon. I'm still a little sad about it.

Luckily, I found my second in X, it was a Mime Jr. Pretty rad. Named it Meme Jr.

third was a boldore in white. its sitting in my pokebank.

knew a guy who rant into two shinies within 5 minutes at the beginning of plat. first it was a starly before he got pokeballs. second was a bidoof which he caught and named shiny shit. he used it for HMs

The Odd Egg in Crystal has like a 15% chance of being shiny I think, and I got a shiny Elekid from it. But dumbass kid-self didn't notice because Elekid is one of this shit-tier shinies you have to really look at to see the difference, and instantly boxed it and never thought about again. Til one day I decided I wanted to play with an Electabuzz and noticed the the small sparkles on the status screen.

an odish in fire red.
I tried transfering to HG, but the game crashed after i saved.
Fuck flashcards.
