I found a shiny Fearow.I can't remember what route it was at, i just remember it was in the Sevvii Islands in Leafgreen. I DID know what shinies where back then(i was like,9 or 10), and i showed it to my older bro and he told me to NOT catch it,because i already had one. I said "but it's stronger than most fearows" and he didnt care and he just clicked "run" on my screen and i never caught it...

I guess the first shiny I've encountered was an illuminise in emerald version and it was also my first time playing emerald so I was pretty surprised. Other shines I found were an oddish in firered and a karablast from white version.

I was unlucky enough to get my first shiny in black and white while I was audino grinding... guess what it was...

My first shiny encounter was at Platinum. Not that I was very happy with it, because it was a geodude. No friends playing Pokémon, no shiny golem for me :c
I've seen many people having shiny's at wifi battles but meh, cheaters alert

I'm actually REALLY lucky with shinies actually

I once found a Shiny Golbat when I was little (in Cerulean Cave, leaf green) and since Mewtwo lived there I thought it was one of the mutated pokemon from the first movie. I was only 8 or something.

I found a shiny weedle, a shiny eggsecute, and a shiny rattata. I never find shiny pokemon that are shiny and the pokemon i want on my team. Its annoying!

I have caught some shinies. Here they are:
First Shiny: A shiny caterpie in HG, she was a beauty she is now a butterfree.
Second Shiny: HG Safari Zone, SOOO LUCKY. I caught a shiny slowbro next. Yeah I said slowbro, I didn't mean slowpoke.
Third Shiny: A shiny Blitzle in Black, I traded it for a Shiny Arbok. 
Fourth Shiny: On Vizzed it was a Shiny Pidgey in Shiny Gold.

I was playing a Pokemon hack one day on vizzed and I came across a shiny Butterfree, too bad I didn't catch it though.

I did catch a few myself once. I remember finding a shiny Seel playing Fire Red, and I think it was either a Venonat or a Yanma in Crystal. Either way, I caught both. I wonder why the odds are so low that some people don't even think they exist. Sure, they're special to a degree, but they don't need to be THAT special...

I have about three times now.

I have a Graveler, Onix, and a Darumaka

My first one was Graveler, and interesting thing is that about 5 minutes later and near the same area, or at least the same cave, I found the onix. I was pretty shocked to find another one in the same place in such little time, and I wasn't even looking for shiny's, i was leveling up my pokemon since the elite 4 had level 60+ and I have level 50's

I don't know how it had happened but I was training (In pokemon Black) and I was trying to find a sandile since I wasn't getting very far with the electric gym (Which was the hardest gym for me in the game) and I found a shiny darumaka and hoped it wouldn't die and I would catch it, and I did on my first try

Even though I don't use them it is still pretty special when anyone catches one, thinking of how the odds are of finding one and how different they are from the rest and how cool they look, but I still love the regular pokemon just as much

I can also add that the shiny that i want the most is a shiny ponyta, I don't know why but I always thought that the blue flame looked so cool/awesome

I have 18 shiny Pokémon, but that's because I traded level 100's for them with Pokenoobs. One time, I found a shiny Ratatta, butI ran out of ultraballs trying to catch it.

Yeah, I found and caught a shiny Magikarp one time, but traded it for a Pikachu. I hate pointless Magikarp.

If you're talking about the main games (so not the spin-offs), I've encountered shiny golbat, trapinch and medicham, all on emerald. I caught golbat and trapinch but accidently KO'd medicham.

I have. At least a few times. Let me tell you about the 2 happiest times I've had finding shiny Pokemon. They both happened while I was performing the Masuda Method.

The first time was a shiny Tepig. I had worked extremely hard for a while to get a shiny one using that method. Then, one morning while I was watching cartoons, it happened. I had hatched the shiny Tepig. I hadn't expected to get one, so soon, because it hadn't been TOO long, but still. I saved immediately after and checked the summary screen, and it was. I had hatched my first shiny.

The other one isn't much of a story. I was over at my friends, and I hatched a shiny Zorua. It was awesome. Thanks for reading

i have found a shiny geodude in mt moon in fire red

The only shiny I ever found was in Leaf Green (Cartridge) and it was a Meowth :/ btw, Magikarp CAN learn Flail and Bounce, and if you raise it right and learn the right moves, you can sweep entire teams with it, if ya don't believe me, search "EPIC MAGIKARP SWEEP"

ultimatelifeform213 : I've seen that video! But that's baton passing, not just using magicarp.
