Just found my first wild shiny, except for Gyarados in gen 2, in my whole Pokémon history. And I've played every single version since I got my first Gameboy Color back in 99. It's the happiest day of my life
>>27271287
Congrats! You gonna evolve it?
>first non-Gyarados shiny was a Fearow on One Island in FR
>killed it because wasn't paying attention
>>27271331
Yes. I'm playing the Y version again, and it will sure be at my in-game team. Trying to think in a good nickname also. It's a female Solosis, btw
>>27271412
Hm. I'm no good with nicknames, but I tend to go for something with meaning behind it as opposed to joke names when nicknaming things.
Also, Shiny Reuniclus is the tits.
>>27271412
I named mine Flubber. Grats on the shiny man Reuniclus shiny is top tier.
>>27271412
Best part is you can Hyper Train it in S&M. Hopefully it has an alright nature.
>>27271287

Congrats, that's a good one. Better than a Zubat or a Gible.
>>27271654
Actually it's Quirky. But for the in-game it wouldn't matter that much
>>27271412
How about "D I C K S"
>>27271287
Congrats! I'm hunting for one myself.
>>27271607
Homuncate, Homunculate, Repliculus.
Some blend of Homunculus and Replicate would be bice.

>>27271998

>>27272015
>>27272017

>>27271287

I was actually hyper upset when they did an event shiny metagross giveaway at gamestop because farming for this guy was a pain in the ass. I used to browse /vp/ friend safari generals just for metang and getting one was almost the highlight of my pokemon career. Then they just kinda gave him away. Anyway this wraps up the dump. I have a few more shinies in storage that didnt make the cut for the final team but im probably not going to post those because they are obviously not great.
I've found quite a few shinies over the years:
1) I found a shiny Golbat in Tohjo Falls back in Gold. Cherished that pink Crobat for years.
2) Surfed into a shiny Tentacool in Silver. Never bothered to evolve it though because at that point Tentacool/Tentacruel were common scum and I didn't like them.
3) Hatched shiny Scyther and Staryu while breeding for competitive mons in Diamond. I was focused on the competitive side of things at that point though, and didn't care about shinies at all, so just gave them to a friend. He lost his cartridge a few months later. Regret giving these away now.
4) Ran into a shiny Plusle in the National Park in HeartGold. Pretty terrible shiny, but the random encounter was pretty fun and made me interested in them again.
5) After the Plusle incident, I read up on the Maduda Method and started breeding for shinies. Several thousand eggs later I had a shiny Charmander, Electrike & Ekans.
6) I finished my Pokedex in Black and got the Shiny Charm. Proceeded to MM a shiny Totodile.
7) Accidentally hatched another shiny Charmander while trying to get a female for a trade request during the amazing pre-Bank era of Pokemon Y. It was flawless. All the right egg moves and nature, 31's across the board, and he's still one of my most-used Pokemon in Battle Spot.
8) Finished the dex in Y and got my shiny charm. MM hatched shiny Absol, Ninetales, Umbreon, Gliscor, Greninja, Spinda, Donphan & Luxray.
9) Also MM bred for a shiny Zubat which I named Tohjo. :P
10) Randomly encountered a shiny Taillow in Petalburg Woods at the very start of Omega Ruby, which was an awesome start to the game!
11) I soft-reset for shiny Ho-Oh, Latias and Raikou in Omega Ruby.
12) Too many Friend Safari shinies to bother mentioning.
