Shiny Pokémon ?! who have you caught?!

I didn’t see a thread on this and I’d love to hear what people have caught!

I’ve finished my Dex and I found ZERO shinies pre shiny charm (tears) but since have had a bit of luck!

I’ve found a shiny Charmander, Magikarp, Fearow, and Chansey x2.

All of those were found with a different Pokémon combo’d than the one who appeared shiny.

Who have you found?


I caught a Seel. It was my first wild shiny EVER! I evolved it!

Timid Lapras while I was chaining for Seel at 58-combo. I came across while traveling back to Cinnabar to buy Lures.
Timid Weedle as the last resort when I got bored of chaining for Staryu and gave up at 54-combo.

I found a shiny Seel and wasn’t even looking for it. But I evolved it.

My catches in LGP so far are:

Oddish
Venonat x 2 (1 to evolve)
Ponyta x 2 (1 to evolve)
Nidoran Female x2 (a second one popped up immediately after the first)
Chansey (encountered 2 while hunting for Ponyta - caught the first, let the second de-spawn)
Spearow (caught while hunting for Nidoran)
Diglett
Weedle (to evolve into a Beedrill)

I have also transferred some shines from Go - all of the starters and their evolutions, Eevee and its evolutions, Dratini and its evolutions, Pinsir, and Aracanine. I am still undecided on whether I will transfer the shinies that I don't have doubles of in Go. I will probably just try to get them again in LGP as it is much easier than trying to replace them in Go.

I caught a shiny Graveler, and I wasn't even trying to shiny hunt. But I did hear that you can catch combo anything and then just search for the shiny you want. That's probably WHY it showed up. Mind you, I really have no interest in shinies and its IVs are kind of garbage. But I didn't have a Graveler, so I figured I might as well.

Since making this post last week I have now also caught Lapras (first one ran from me, but I reclaimed it the following day), Porygon, Kakuna, Caterpie, Geodude and Zubat.

I am loving how easy shiny hunting is in this game. Got five in one day. It is making me seriously consider working towards a shiny living Kanto dex.
