I've never gotten a shiny, not even from the GTS.

Tried chaining Roselia a month ago. I got to 43, but I wasn't successful. STUPID RALTS!

Forever now
I finally got my Poochyena chain to 40 n caught 3 shinies only.
The first shiny took forever to appear (gosh, this the worst thing I hate about chaining).
I have tons (well only 4) of shiny Mightyena in my Diamond, so I won't bother to evolve one. Anyway, about nature, I don't really care either. I mean, who uses Poochyena?

I decided to continue to explore the rest of the part of the map (like the fighting area, stark mt. etc before going back to chain something again), prolly complete my syncher Ralts.

Anyway, I also got myself shiny Chikorita in my HG. So I guess I'm lucky.
It was Sunday, so I used most of time to get shinies.

I should take a pic of my Chikorita, I will, just wait.

Thanx its beautiful. I use it in doubles support (icy wind, reflect, toxic) yet i still keep it mostly as a collectors peice. Too elegant for battle.

Nice job getting all of those shinies. I think i only have about 10-15.

It took me 500 hours on my pearl to find a random shiny Gastradon.
 
I used to have shiny sharpedo, loudred, torkoal, golem, bellosom, vileplume, spearow, paras, altria, medicham, budew, luxray, manectric, and I had another blaziken and metagross...all of those were from random encounters orginally except metagross, blaziken and luxray

I just chained myself a shiny Bagon in Platinum. Well, it showed up at number 2 in my chain and didnt have a shiny patch so it was actually just dumb luck, but Im still proud of it. I named him Ragnarok and just checked his IVs (attack is 27 which is pretty unfortunate since he's Modest natured, but his SpecialAtk is 21 so I can live with that) and im ready to start EV training him :)

After eleven years of playing Pokemon, I encountered my first ever shiny wild Pokemon today... It was a Chansey. And even though I was using a Pokemon that had False Swipe, I accidentally fainted it. So yeah. I'm angry with myself right now.


The sad thing is, I have six Masterballs. I should have used one. It would have been worth it.

I can never chain to save my life so the only way to shinies is to trade other people
Currently have 5 shinies
But i wish i could chain to catch my own shiny to offer
