Wasn't 6th gen but I caught a shiny venonat in Gen II on one of my color systems, but then a few days later I was playing it on one of my systems that was still black and white so I didn't notice it had color changes for being shiny and released it thinking it was just something I caught for points in the bug competition.

My first ever shiny encounter was in Diamond and Pearl. It was a Shiny Graveler... And in a very clichè style it Self-Destructed on me! Sad times... :p

Shiny Graveler (first shiny I encountered on XY) when I just got the game. Thought it was safe to use Surf.
But of course, EVERY Graveler has Sturdy, except for this one. >.<

I was checking the pokemon of a new friend safari I had just got, and wouldn't you know a shiny lapras appears. I had one pokemon on me level 100 so I couldn't weaken it only for it to use perish song on me, so I had a couple of chances to catch it before we both die only to have the 'pokemon break free' it was like nails on a chalk board every time it escaped..

How are these shiny fails? Yours (DrizztFenix) sounds more like a shiny win :D

the worst for me was encountering a shiny sentret in a Gen four safari... the struggle was inevitable.. and rage indusing... because it was able to run away

the trade value was low and I was aiming for a shiny honedge... but the most recent post I posted of the sentret was by far my worst

Oh I thought you were saying that the shiny honedge was shiny too in which case you would have gotten 2 shinies right after each other

In this new generation it was so painful to randomly run into a shiny zangoose in a horde of seviper and had to watch them kill each other. ;~; I would have brought a pokemon that knew earthquake or something, but it was so random.

My first shiny was a Pidgey. You may think Route 1 with no pokeballs but nope. In Pokemon Platinum on Route 229 I didn't know about shinies but when the sparkles appeared I asked my brother and he said it was shiny. It was around level 50 and I was low on pokeballs. instead of lowering it's health I spammed pokeballs. That was the mistake. I ran out and had to kill it.

Shiny Kirlia with Trace in the Friend Safari that could've had Timid thanks to a Synchronizer. Guess what it used? Teleport, of course. :p

Mine was a shiny Eevee... I ran into it when doing my original play through, only to realize I didn't have any pokeballs with me. I ended up finding another one a few days after beating the elite four though, and had some ultra balls then, so yay!

My first shiny encounter was in Pokemon Silver (#original) so when I as training my Totodile and got it to Lv14 in the first route then after a few minutes, well look at that! a Shiny Ratata! except since I just started and havent even gotten my first "PokeBall" I was at first "OMFG OMFG OMFG" checking the bag and voala! I had no PokeBall's! I was so frustrated that I gave up using that game for the rest of the week...

My first shiny fail was a shiny Regirock in white 2. I was prepared for this shiny but he didn't have enough move and he struggle. But at least I got my revenge.
