My first shiny, I think, was a silver Rattata on Pokemon Crystal. I rmeember running into it and catching it, never using it again. Soon after, I got lucky whilst exiting Ilex Forest (?) and just as I was about to exit, a gold Caterpie appeared. I never did train that thing to a pink Butterfree... >w>

It was actually quite funny:

I was in the old mansion in Pearl really late at night, to the point where I was getting REALLY tired. I was talking to my brother and said "Gengar's my favorite pokemon, you know how sick it would be if I got a shiny gastly right now?" I then got a battle, and behold.

And no, I'm not making this up...the timing was PERFECT xD

Other than that, I've gotten events, red gyarados, and RNGd one :/ Only one legit shiny :'(

Got lucky? :D Had a friend/alternate game with a shiny id/sid combo? I'd actually love a .pkm of that, if you can post one. :D

I really wanted to have my own shiny Manaphy to make sure it wasn't a hack because a lot of shiny Manaphy hacks were going around at the time, so I learned how to RNG. I own two DS and at the time had Platinum and Soulsilver. I calibrated the Soulsilver and set the Manaphy's hatch info on RNG Reporter to be shiny on my Platinum. The worst was starting the game on the right seed. I have a pretty bad time with delays, I guess. I finally got it after trying for like 8 days, though. LOL It doesn't have good IVs, though (low except a 30 in Speed and a 28 in Sp. Def I think). I can do you one better, though, thanks to Kaphotics. ^_^

My first shiny was also on my old Silver cart in my brick GameBoy. I barely remember how it happened; I was probably just randomly walking in the grass. I encountered a Kakuna, thinking nothing of it until I saw the sparkles. I immediately flipped out and caught it in an Ultra Ball. That was a good day.

Unfortunately, my Silver cart was stolen eventually. That was an awful day. D:

Fast-forward six years later. In one of my vacations to visit my family in good ol' Puerto Rico, I was playing Diamond, surfing the water route just south of Victory Road. Long story short, I was attempting to look for a Lapras there (not knowing I was looking in the wrong place!) for what seemed like hours. It was about 4 AM and couldn't sleep for some oddball reason. Eventually I switch from Surfing to Fishing, and to my complete disbelief I encounter a shiny Octillery!

Since then, it seemed my luck with finding these rarities skyrocketed. I could go on and list the ones I've got over the years, but each one has its own crazy situational story and I don't want to bore anyone with them.

I found a Shiny Hoothoot in Soulsilver (U) when I was headbutting a tree to find Tailow. And I caught that shiny and evolved it to Noctowl. Now I am training it so I could use it for catching Legendaries.

Thinking back.. my first Shiny was in Pokémon Silver (not counting Shiny Gyarados..), it was a wild Onix. In Ruby it was an Electrike and in Sapphire it was a Clamperl. In Diamond I ran into a Shiny Gloom and SoulSilver it was a Tentacool. And lastly in Pokémon Black it was a Shiny Woobat.

Also some other Shiny firsts of mine..:

Sapphire- First soft reset Shiny, Rayquaza

Diamond- First Pokéradar chained Shiny, Buneary

Diamond- First RNG'd hatched Shiny, Magikarp

Diamond- First RNG'd Shiny Legendary, Giratina

Black- First ever hatched Shiny, Zorua
