Rare Pokemon Time Trial

In Leaf Green, I once ran into three Wobbuffets in a row on Island Six. I didn't catch any, though.

Once I went to route 113 and the first 3 pokémon I found were Skarmory. What's funny about that is I was trying to EV train something in special attack.
And no I didn't have anybody with magnet pull on me. Otherwise I wouldn't consider that rare.

Shiny Linoone was the second pokemon I saw when I was looking for a Manectric. I was stoked :p
 
I saw two shinies in Granite Cave (gone forever). Caught a Latias in a Net Ball (one of the first encounters). I saw a Relicanth the first dive I did on Sapphire, but killed it and I've seen hundreds of Absols around Fortree.

Found a Feebas in about 5-10 minutes of starting to surf.
Found a Chimecho about 10 minutes after getting to the top.
 
When I was on Route 120 in Saphirre, as soon as I stepped in the grass I found an Absol and caught it.
