Luckiest Things That've Happened in ORAS

I found a Ralts right before entering Petalburg City right before you meet Wally. I also found a Beat Up Seedot without searching very early on and even before I entered the Woods. I also found a Poison Fang and an Ice Fang Poochyena very early and a Spinda that knew Smelling Salts without trying.

I caught a shiny Shuppet on Mt. Pyre from a random encounter last sunday.
I haven't gotten a shiny Pokémon from a random encounter since Pokémon Firered.
I know the chances of encountering shiny Pokémon have increased over the past generations but still, that was a lucky break!

Well, for me it was when i faced Groudon and i ran out of Ultra Ball and Great Ball, when i want to restart the game i thought why don't i try with the rest of pokeball that i still have as a leftover (only 5 of them), then in the first try, i actually caught Groudon with said pokeball (which is pretty ridiculous given that i have use 30 ultra ball and 20 Great Ball and all of them failed)

That is some luck, but I know that feeling. Bought 40 Ultra balls for Regice once and caught it with a Pokeball (WTF?) why even spend money in quality things in PKMN, it's all just pure luck lol..... luck I've had when I was hatching a starly for a GTS trade (I needed just an turtwig for gods sake) and it was shiny. The first shiny I've ever hatched on a Pokémon I never liked. I was trying to breed shiny Seviper or Beldum for months, but now this little brown **** represents my luck. :D

A week after start my Omega Ruby, I got a drought vulpix from wonder trade. Started to breed to give it some eggmoves and a shiny vulpix (flash fire though) came in the fifth egg.

It's not ORAS, but on X I entirely randomly encounter a shiny Trapinch. Surprise! 1/8192 chance. It's now resting in my AS Box though as a Flygon. :)

It's actually 1/4096 from Gen V onwards. Though it's still pretty lucky. :)

I got pretty lucky with chain fishing, other than that, ORAS hasn't been very lucky for me.

I mentioned this in recent happenings but then I noticed this thread which seemed better.

I Wonder Traded and got a level 1 Shiny Sneazel with Pokerus in a Moon Ball.

I guess the luckiest was when I found shiny Heracross in Safari Zone. I went to the back corner and as I was hopping down the ledge a shaking grass popped up. It was a shiny Heracross, the search level was 7 as I had previously dexnaved in this location for a Rhyhorn and anytime a random pops up it's a Heracross.

This was the first time I had gone to this area since I turned the game off and on previously.

i got a shiny cyndaquil without sr! so much luck here. It was amazing! LOL i remember when i was trading. showed my cyndaquil and i looked at it. I ended the trade because i only just realised it was shiny.
 
I managed to capture Legendaries such as Dialga, Uxie, Mesprit, Heatran and Cresselia in AS in one try, which was awesome. My luck in OR wasn't as good though.

I only had good luck at fishing for Shiny Pokemon in Alpha Sapphire. I would fish randomly looking for nothing in particular, then suddenly I'd hook something Shiny. I have about three Shiny Koiking that I encountered this way.
