It's such a damn rush, especially when muscle memory causes me to almost press Earthquake or Rock Slide.

Have you bred any?

Nope....

The only shiny I've gotten was a shiny Starly via wonder trade. It was probably hacked, tbh

I've got a box full of shinies >_>

Encounters stretching back to FR/LG and Masuda breeding, along with wondertrade and regular <_<

The first one I met in the wild would be a clefairy with green eartips tho.

Yeah, most shinies are just kinda... oh neat -> boxed.

There are only a few I use because they look better than the regular skin, Umbreon looks neat as all hell as does Greninja. Few others that I can't remember right now too.

I like the more subtle ones like Umbreon, the blue stripes are sexy. Shiny Aggron is cool too, dem red eyes.

- Shiny Rattata in Silver. Fuck, I was so young.
- Shiny Electrike in Sapphire.
- Shiny Wobbuffett in Sapphire. Failed to catch it, because it was in the Safari Zone. It ran.

- Shiny Wurmple in Sapphire. Failed to catch it, because I'm a fucking idiot.
- Shiny Numel in Ruby. This is my most recent one. It was during a nuzlocke, so I had to break the second rule.
- Shiny Geodude in Pearl.
- Shiny Basculin in White. It's a SLIGHTLY different shade of green--hard to notice--so I almost didn't even catch it.

You're the only person I know who's encountered as much as me.

I've tried breeding the Red Gyarados numerous times to get a golden Magikarp, but I never pulled it off.

Verbatim · December 01, 2015, 06:57:19 PM

OH YEAH GEN VI HAPPENED

I caught a shiny Pidgey and a shiny white petal Flabébé in Y. Almost within an hour of each other.

So that makes nine, I guess.

I hesitate to count these, because they just HAD to raise the encounter rate in Gen VI.
Devaluing shinies forever. :/

I haven't done a Nuzlocke yet but I think I would bend the rules a bit IF I encountered a shiny. Just can't pass the opportunity up.

Also, yay Geodudes.

Horde Battles are great for shinies.

I caught a shiny one of those Buffalo things. I put it in the dream world and then my cartage committed suicide.

Puro · December 01, 2015, 07:16:26 PM

I've only encountered one shiny Eevee in Y and one shiny Bedlum in Diamond.

Caught both of 'em. Eevee is now a Sylveon and I can't find my Diamond, but I do know my Bedlum is a Metang.

Shiny munna in black
Shiny charmeleon in y
Bred a shiny rioulu

gats · December 01, 2015, 07:44:15 PM

I've only ever come across one and I made it faint

Anonymous (User Deleted) · December 01, 2015, 07:57:39 PM

Seven Metapods

SHINY CHARIZARD

Kiwicake · December 01, 2015, 08:56:03 PM

I have never found a single shiny in all my time of playing

Zonda · December 01, 2015, 10:59:31 PM

Never encountered any, never bred any. When people talk about having multiple Shiny Legendaries/heaps of shinies in general, I think they're bullshitting/hacked their game.

Not one

CK97 · December 02, 2015, 01:31:56 AM

Hawlucha
Cubchoo
Something else I don't remember

Onion · December 02, 2015, 02:24:26 AM

More than I can count.

From gen 3 onwards; poochyena, oddish, carvanha, zubat, metang, golurk, boldore, aron, larvesta, geodude, wartortle.

You could easily double that list, but I can't remember the rest.

Since shiny values were a thing and the discovery rates in friend safari, shiny pokes completely lost their value.
