Well when I was learning about EV training, I found a pokemon with pokerus :p. After a while when I had completely lost pokerus, I found a wild taillow with it in Ruby. Then again on Diamond on a wild Mawile.

I was just walking through grass when I started my diamond game and met a shiny Shinx! This was before I even started chaining. Luckily I had 5 poke balls on me to catch it! Unbelievable, I now have a level 81 shiny Luxray! I remember I caught a Shiny Sentret on my old Silver game and I never realised it until after about 6 months!!!

I ran into Mespirit with only one regular poke ball by accident not expecting it and threw my poke ball while at full health and caught it

After relatively little SRing (considering how long it could have taken) I was able to catch a shiny Shaymin. I SR'd for a while, but got tired of it, then the other day I just decided to start up again on a whim. Anyway, I was so freaked out when it showed up I just chucked a master ball at it, but it's shiny nonetheless. Luckiest thing thats ever happened in pkmn for me.

On my very first playthrough on Diamond I found a shiny Wurmple the first time I went into that first forest.
It was like the 3rd Wurmple I'd seen, too! ^_^

I get pretty lucky and find good deals on the GTS, too.
I found 2 Jirachi's and Celebi's for common legends like Zapdos and actually got 'em! w00t w00t!

This may not seem lucky to you but to me it is so... I started using the Poke Radar to try and find a Snorunt. constantly finding Medicham, Machoke, and Sneasal. then on my planned-to-be-last use of the radar I walked around randomly (I couldn't see where the bushes shook because of the stupid snow/hail) and found a bush that had shook. Inside was a Snorunt and it was a girl too! I wanted a female snorunt cus I wanted to evolve it into a Froslass. so yeah I would say that was lucky for me

Red is pure awesome



I fished out a shiny Gyarados seconds after I said, "wouldn't it be funny if I found a shiny here one day?"

Once thought to myself, "wouldn't it be funny if the first Pokémon I found today was a shiny?" I found a Diglett - first Pokémon encounter of the day - and it turned out shiny.

yeah and one day it started raining pancakes seconds after i said "wouldn't it be funny if it started raining pancakes?"
