wraith89 Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 Some shinies just look awkward. I still can't get over the fact Misdreavus's and Mismagius's shiny counterparts are GOLD... not something cool like Scarlet or Blue
Fallen Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 Well you could have a shiny counterpart like Dewgong's. He just turns white from his already very pale blue.
wraith89 Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 Or Froslass's shiny form... which really isn't much of a change. Or Rhyhorn's... Most blue Pokemon's shiny forms are purple... like Swampert, Kyogre, Vaporeon, etc...
Fallen Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 I don't get Espeon's shiny form. It goes from a nice purple to the puke green. Not attractive at all.
wraith89 Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 I don't like Lucario's shiny form either, although Gold + Blue seems to indicate Egyptian royalty or something...
Fallen Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 Lucario looks pretty awesome shiny in my opinion. Xatu has a pretty pointless shiny form as well. It just becomes a lighter green.
wraith89 Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 Have you ever seen a shiny Gastrodon? If there is such thing, I'd really want to see one @_@
Fallen Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 They don't look too different. They just get a bit lighter..
Mikirou Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 My first shiny...a Geodude in Crystal. Then about 5 minutes later a shiny Onix. Then in the cave where you get Lugia I think maybe a Mantine or something. All in the same day. It was AMAZING.

I haven't seen a shiny ever since the pink Metapod at the Bug Catching Contest (I forfeited Scyther for that thing @_@)...

fenzo666 Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 I love this thread. My first shiny Pokemon was a Caterpie. Unfortunately, I thought it was a corrupt glitch in the game so I turned off the system. Please take into account that I was very young and had no idea what a "shiny" Pokémon was.

Fallen Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 I was one of them. I was also fairly young and would've been lost without my Silver version.
Illithian Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 My first shiny was a Ralts in Ruby. I caught and trained it. (I hadn't actually seen a ralts yet so I didn't know it was shiny) Funny thing is, when Wally got his ralts, I thought HIS was a game glitch. It took me a while to realize mine was a glitch. I looked it up and found out how lucky I was. =)
Fallen Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 The stars that fly around after it is released didn't make you think it was a glitch?
4evil Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 i just found a shiny geodude in the magma hideout in emerald looks all weird, gold colour note: 2nd shiny found in emerald
black blood lust Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 my first shiny pokemon was a shiny caterpie which is gold instead of green and i caught it, I remember it so well... it was really close i only had 1 pokeball left and used stat lowering attacks and my only pokemon at the time was charmander i managed to get it down to red barred hp and caught it with my 1 pokeball, and when it evolved it maintained it's shinyness, i now have a shiny butterfree this is on fire red version. and on platinum i encountered a shiny ghastly but it used curse after i already lowered it's hp and it killed itself, i was so dissapointed
Fallen Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 Wow, that a bummer. Shiny Gengar doesn't look too different from normal Gengar though, if that makes you feel any better about it.
SkyFormeSheimi Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 My first shiny was a Growlithe on FR/LG. Now I have 46 without the use of AR or any other device.
Fallen Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 46!!! How did you manage to encounter and capture 46 shiny Pokémon! I hope you're not fabricating the story. You are extremely lucky if you aren't.
wraith89 Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 Everyone's so lucky! I'm trying to chain a shiny Ralts now... but got promptly met by a Bidoof @_@
Azelf Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 My first ever shiny was in Ruby, found a shiny Oddish . My firsy shiny in Pearl however was a shiny Geodude. And most recently, my first shiny in Platinum was a Riolu I hatched
