Sadly the first shiny Pokemon i caught in the wild was from Pokemon white........... and it was a darn Tranquill (Male and it is now a Unfezant....=D). I obtained my other shiny Pokemon through trade or a friend!

Come to think of it, my first shiny was Gyarados. "FOREVER ALONE"

Shiny Shinx~<3

My first shiny EVER was when I was 8 years old and didn't know what shinies were yet. I ran into a golden Mightyena in Emerald version, and I tried to catch it, but it had Run Away ;_;

And the first shiny that I CAUGHT was a shiny Magnemite in Soul Silver, which led to me becoming a full-on shiny hunter ^w^

Apart from the Shiny Gyarados from Gold/Silver that you have to see I've never seen/caught/bred a Shiny Pokemon. I have spent hours hunting but never got one. Perhaps I'm the only person to never have a shiny :(

My first that I caught(not counting Red Gyrados on SS) was a shiny Ursaring on SS. I probably ran into tons of others, but never knew what they were, so Ursaring was the first I caught

My first shiny pokemon I ever seen and caught would be a shiny spoink in Ruby. I didn't know shiny pokemon existed during that time but spoink was my favorite pokemon of all and I spent hours trying to find one. When I saw it I didn't really notice the colors. I was just happy to see one. My cousin then later told me about the special pokemon I caught.

Sword
01-11-2012, 07:06 AM
The first shiny pokemon I ever caught was a shiny Latios. What was really funny is that I wanted a non shiny Latios. I chased that pokemon everywhere and when I finally found it I was disappointed. It was shiny. I had owned like 5 shiny Latios that I didn't want because they where from trade and I was soo happy that I was getting a normal Latios that belonged to me. lol. Still he's around level 95 now and is like my best friend.

I just bred my very first shiny today! I now have a shiny Snivy. As I said before I've never seen/caught/bred a shiny before so I'm quite happy with that.

It took me a lot of breeding (had to breed hundreds of Snivy to get the shiny).

The first shiny I have ever caught happened just yesterday. I was trying to catch uxie, but I ran out of Ultra balls and such.

Must've used AR. No way on earth can you legitimately get a Shiny Arceus. It is 'Shiny Locked'. So either you are lying or you hacked it.

I've NEVER caught a shiny pokemon myself.

I've tried countless times to chain them in Pearl, but I always break it and rage quit.


I have 5 1/2 boxes full of shinies through trading through the GTS, but..
Yeah.
Would be nice to catch one on my own. *HEADDESK.*
But my first ever shiny was a Dratini, and I still have him today. <3

Keitaro787
02-11-2013, 09:51 PM
My first shiny was on Gold Version and was a shiny Nidorina and shiny caterpie during bug catching contest. Then later on Silver version I found a shiny horsea in whirl islands and later a shiny zubat. Those are the only games I have caught shinies. I have bred only one shiny and that was on Black Version thus far and that was my eevee that I bred this last Christmas. It was funny I was saying how great it would be to get a shiny eevee for a present and a few minutes later the egg hatched as a shiny eevee.

I've only caught one shiny Pokemon ever It was a level five Mareep in HG. :3 It was funny 'cause I had already caught one right before that one and I wasn't paying attention to the game when it 'sparkled' and I was like, "Why does it look pink? I could have sworn Mareep was yellow." So I caught it and was so happy. :3 Immediately released the other one.
Shiny mega Ampharos FTW!

The first shiny I ran into was in crystal version and it was a shiny zubat but unfortunately it was in a cave and I hate caves so much I kept fleeing from everything I ran into just to get out of there faster, I forgot my repels and kept running into wild Pokemon every two steps that I took so out of frustration I ended up running away from it on accident, but the first shiny I ever caught would be a shiny Zigzagoon in Pokemon Sapphire, I don't have that one anymore but now I got a new one through Gts negotiations about three weeks ago so I'm happy to have my old pal back even if it's not the exact same one. ^-^

Not counting gbcolor's red gyrados. My first shiny was a male audino in black. I immediately boxed him because he was adorable. I'd alwys wanted a shiny, but never had any luck. C: after that I'd gotten many more.
An emolga less than a day later, a shiny rattata, then espurr(now a male meowstic) and swirlix. And someone wondertraded me a shiny luvdisc named "Marryme?" And i thought that was super adorbs.

The first one I caught was swoobat in X. I've shiny-bred alot, but I guess it doesn't count as a catch.

I regard myself as having two first shinies, one is a shiny clauncher which i got by chain fishing, but the same day i caught a shiny glourk at full odds in the freind safari which was the first shiny i ever felt a sense of reward in finding (because chain fishing is way too easy)

Never caught a shiny :( I've tried chaining Scatterbug but alas, nothing. I did encounter a shiny once. I had no idea it was shiny though. I was near the lost hotel in Pokemon X and fighting in the bushes and I was using my shiny Gyarados (I dont count him because everyone has him). So I was looking away and thought the shiny noise was just my gyarados when I ran into a blue Pawniard. Killed it. Kept fighting. A piece of my soul died the next time I saw a pawniard and realized they were red normally.

I HAVE gotten shinies from wonder trade though! A shiny rattata with perfect IVs, and my friend gave me a shiny mareep (perfect IVs as well). Mega shiny ampharos is the bomb.

My first was a Wheezing in Diamond back in 2010. I caught it at the base of that one mountain in the after-game after having the game for about a year.

A red Duskull in Ruby. I also caught a gold Claydol in Ruby but Duskull was my first excluding red Gyarydos from gen 2. Since then I got a gold Tentacool and Geodude (both Firered) and just yesterday I got red Gyarydos as my first shiny in X. Any other shinies I've had have been through trades.

A shiny Altaria in Pokemon Ruby. At the time I was so young I didn't even know why it was miscolored, I thought it was some sort of glitch lol.

So the first shiny I found was Gyarados from Crystal..... However the first non story shiny Pokemon is Mareep (I fell that I spelt it wrong..) from X :)

My first was a wurmple in Ruby that evolved into a beautifly. I was really little though and I didn't even know what a shiny was, so I unfortunately deleted it.
I've recently been trying to find a shiny wurmple that I could possibly trade into Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire and take on my journey.

My very first shiny was in Black 2, and it was a shiny Klink! I didn't ever use it once I caught it, but it was a nice find.

Mine was a Tynamo. I still have the Elektross mainly for the sentiment and since it was so hard to catch in the wild. I actually got it while playing through the story.

My first shiny was a Zubat. All those years of encountering Zubats in caves and it actually rewarded me with a shiny.

As yet the only shiny I have caught was the pre-set Gyarados in Silver/Gold.

Never seen / caught / bred a shiny but hopefully that will change.

Never found one but my first shiny i think was a trade for shiny scizor.

My first shiny was the red Gyarados in SS, but that doesn't really count. My first real shiny was a Crustle in B2.

I thought i would never get a shiny other than gyarados ss, but one night, while sneaking on video games, i got a darmanitan in AS(yea, took a looooooooong time)

I got a shiny Grimer back in Pokemon Emerald. A shiny Spinda, too. I can't actually remember which of the two came first, but I think it was the Grimer.

I have a rather tragic story my for my first shiny. I had spent literal years breeding Vulpix's trying to get a shiny across several generations. In Moon, I took a break from breeding my Vulpix to get a F.E.A.R. for the Battle Tree. I'm sure at this point you can tell what's about to happen. I get one egg, take out the Rattata, and put the Vulpix back in. The one and only Rattata egg I got hatched... And it was a shiny. AFTER YEARS OF BREEDING VULPIX AND NEVER GETTING A SHINY, I BREED ONE RATTATA AND IT'S A SHINY ALOLAN!

My first one was doduo in let's go Pikachu. I was going crazy catching pokemon so I found him. I caght him because I thought he was a super rare Alolan dodou. I evolved him into dodrio and I still have him!
