just the same with me. I got shiny magikarp early when im playing platinum! really great! The shinny i ever got for my pokemon adventure are :
gold : furret
platinum : dustox, magikarp
Aside from Gyarados, I've encountered a blue Shuppet. After a happy dance, I've caught it.
Also, (I don't know if this counts as random encounter) when I was at my cousin's house, I transferred some of his Ruby Pokemon to my Pearl. Turned out the Seviper I just wanted for the dex entry was shiny. My cousin forgot.
Crystal: Golbat in Ice Path, Ratata on Route 32, Hoothoot on Route 29 (Before I was given any Pokeballs by Elm's aide)
Ruby: Metagross (I was spawning wild Metagross with action replay when it appeared. I didn't even realize it was shiny. I thought it was Metagross' normal colors) on route 101.
Pearl: Geodude in Maniac Tunnel
