Heh.. My first shiny, was when I was playing Pearl. I had never even touched a Pokemon game before it. I had gotten all the way to giratina.. I decided to use soft reset. Took about 30 resets and I was so happy with my Shiny Giratina. I have a special bond with it and i love it to be honest. Also by the way... My favorite pokemon (seriously) ((besides giratina)) is a :bidoof:. Not joking.
