Well, are you talking about the first one we ran into in D/P/Pt/HG/SS, or the first one that we encountered ever?
If we're talking strictly 4th Gen, the first shiny that I found was a Graveler in Stark Mountain a couple days ago. Thankfully I was able to catch it without it blowing up in my face.
The first shiny that I ever encountered period was a Haunter in Crystal Version. Unfortunately, none of my Pokemon back then knew how to attack without overkilling something. The only other shiny that I encountered was an Oddish in my Ruby version, which got transferred to Pearl, and then Pearl broke.

I'm still trying to get a solid team together for the metagame, but my in-game party is currently like this:
Current Party: Diamond Version
Miyamoto
Male Scyther, Level 53
Moveset: X-Scissor/Aerial Ace/Night Slash/Brick Break
Item: Usually Razor Claw
Note: My first Pokemon to be fully EV trained (Speed & Attack)
Sanryuki
Male Gyarados, Level 63
Moveset: Waterfall/Dragon Dance/Flamethrower/Earthquake
Item: Quick Powder
Rasengan
Male Lucario, Level 65
Moveset: Aura Sphere/Psychic/Dark Pulse/Dragon Pulse
Item: Leftovers
Note: I accidently trained it for Attack instead of Special Attack, so I'm trying to raise another one
Kazeshini
Male Crobat, Level 60
Moveset: Giga Drain/Haze/Air Slash/Fly
Item: Big Root
Empoleon, Level 57
Moveset: Surf/Defog/Flash Cannon/Grass Knot
Item: Splash Plate
Note: Definatly going to replace him for another for the metagame
Timare
Female Garchomp, Level 57
Moveset: Dragon Claw/Flamethrower/Rock Climb/Strength
Item: Draco Plate
Note: Did NOT come out how I intended her to, breeding her like Rasengan
Well, that's about it. I'm probably going to exchange Timare and Empoleon for other Pokemon (Empoleon because I don't really care for it, and Timare because I just found out that Garchomp became Uber class). This was still nothing compared to my Pearl team though...
Pearl Team (no longer in this world)
Angelfiend
Female Zangoose, Level 100
Moveset: Return, Swords Dance, Ice Beam, X-Scissor
Item: Silk Scarf
Charizard, Level 95
Moveset: Fly, Heat Wave, Shadow Claw, Roost
Item: Charcoal
Groudon, Level 86
Moveset: Solarbeam, Earthquake, Flamethrower, Dragon Claw
Item: Leftovers
Dialga, Level 82
Moveset: Roar of Time, Flash Cannon, Ice Beam, Dragon Pulse
Item: Adamant Orb
Venusaur, Level 75
Moveset: Sunny Day, Earthquake, Solarbeam, Giga Drain
Item: Miracle Seed
Lucario, Level 75
Moveset: Aura Sphere, Extremespeed, Drain Punch, Swords Dance
Item: Fist Plate
Well, that's it, the party I have now and the one I did have before I left a couple years ago (thanks to losing Pearl). Anyway, advice would be appreciated.
P.S. How do you get those pictures of each Pokemon into the messages?

Hello There.
Aw i can't seem to remember you. My name on the previous forum was KnightVVing, do you happen to recall anything about me?
Nah, sorry. I might have seen something like Knightwing, but then again, I'm horrible when it comes to names. Anyway, thanks a lot.

Nah, it was probably a rejected Gurren Lagann mecha design.

I know which Pokemon I hate the most now...[sprite]075[/sprite]
Why? Because everytime I encounter them in the wild, unless I was using Empoleon, which would have Surf, or Floatzel, these guys ALWAYS Selfdestruct so that I cannot gain any experience because I would NEVER EVER be able to KO them in one hit. It is so annoying... and if I want to grind and I do the switching method, I cannot even switch to someone like Floatzel directly in fear of Selfdestruct... seriously this thing's threat rate should be at ALL TIMES HIGH (unless you were SIGNIFICANTLY higher leveled than they are) >.<
Despite how much more threatening something like Onix looks likes, it really is not. Even Geodude is a bigger threat than Onix... Onix is a weakling o_o
So if you are in Iron Island and encounter a Graveler and an Onix, ALWAYS target the Graveler first! End of story. God help you if you encounter TWO Gravelers... ugh that Lucario does not even seem to OHKO Gravelers with Force Palm.
Ah, true, true. Them suicide bombers are annoying! However, that's one of the reasons that I make sure that my party Pokemon are fully Speed EV train. I have spent 10 hours straight on Route 201 going on a Starly killing spree just so I knew that my Pokemon will outrun anything. After that, they either spec in Attack or Special Attack, and ALL of my Pokemon know at least one move that is effective versus one or more of the common suicide bomber types (Rock, Steel, Electric). Thank you God for Earthquake and Waterfall.

As with my favorites, I can't choose the one I hate the most, mainly because I have too many. Now, my five least favorite, I think I can manage, so here goes!
5th place goes to Wobbuffet, because of his insane amount of HP, Shadow Tag, and the two things that this weird innuendo is famous for: Counter and Mirror Coat. I wouldn't loathe it so much if it weren't for the fact that every time I use it, I get a sound beating.
4th is Golbat, because everyone that I face that uses it or its evolution uses it for confusing/poisoning or what not. The one reason why I don't hate Crobat though, is because I use it, and it's not meant to poison you. Can we say Giga Drain+Big Root, anyone?
Landing in 3rd is another Pokemon I thoroughly despise, yet I love it's evolution: Magikarp. Insanely hard to level up (especially at the start of the game and/or EV training it), impossible to level on its own until Lv.15 or so (where it learns Tackle of all things), and its stats are nothing but horrendous. However, it's spared from being on my blacklist because of Gyarados. Once it's at Level 20 (which is rather low considering its massive Attack and the levels required for other Pokemon to reach their final evolutions), I start having vengeance. Sweet, charred, crushed, or drenched vengeance (depending on which move I choose).
Oddly enough, the silver on this list is taken by the the star of HeartGold; Ho-oh. I loved the idea of a phoenix Pokemon (especially since Moltres did a horrible job of looking cool), love its moveset...absolutely hate its looks. Honestly, it looks like they crossed a peacock, a turkey, and a rooster, and gave it those crappy bandit "masks" that go around the eyes. And they made this abomination a legendary! What gives? Its stats and moveset (as far as I know, it's the only Pokemon that can learn Sacred Fire) save it from the disgrace of the one (technically two) Pokemon that I arguably hate above all else...
Bidoof and Bibarel. They look like the result of a intern that drank a bit more than he could handle, and were only allowed to be official Pokemon because everyone else was also a bit tipsy. They're the Sinnoh version of Rattata/Raticate, Sentret/Furret, and Zigzagoon/Linoone. Except that they look more than my brother's fro than anything else. To make it worse, they made Bibarel (who's supposed to be better than Bidoof) a Normal/Water type! Why? Okay, lets take the generic low-level type Normal of Sinnoh, and make it weak against Grass and Electricity as well as Fighting! Great idea, guys.
Okay, that was five. I'm going to get off now before I start dishing out complaints against everyone. Have fun!

Wow, things have changed around here, haven't they? Did something happen to the other site?
Anyway, I was a member of the forums a couple years back, before my Pearl version broke. It's been so long that I forget my username on there, but I'm sure it was either Mobius or Mobiusdiablo (since they've been the only two I names I use since the dawn of time). Ah, who am I kidding? Why should I expect anyone to remember me from way back then when they have their own affairs to deal with?
I would have rejoined sooner, but after having to replace Pearl (let alone the rest of my games!) and training my Pokemon right (EV-style), I've finally gotten my Diamond party up to a "respectable" level (55-65; Pearl was the only version that got past that point without me restarting it since I transferred my Pokemon from Ruby, Sapphire, and FireRed to them).
That said, I have a new laptop and way too much free time, so I expect (hope) that I'll be on here longer than I was before. 'Bye!
