Ive colloected two shinies. The first was just a wild pokemon that I ran into (lv 45 tentacruel) and the second was a fossil I dug up (lileep)
 
Hey are fossils' data preset?(Gender, IVs, Shiny or not)I already resurrected all my fossils but none were shiny so I switched of the DS. I am just asking if a fossil is shiny or not when you dig it up or when you resurrect it.

Well, seeing as a fossil is a collectable item and you can have more than one of the same fossil now, I don't believe they are. If they were preset I'd imagine you would only be allowed one fossil in a list (such as having two Claw Fossil x1 's). Bear in mind this is just my speculation.

As for shinies, my very first venture in the Diamond Safari Zone, my very first pokemon I saw in there was a Shiny (pinkish) Wooper. I was so excited to see it, but I thought for sure I would screw up the catch. I am terrible at catching pokemon in the Safari Zone, which is why I don't go there that often. But, despite my lack of confidence, I saw success. I immediately threw a Safari Ball and caught it. Yay! ^_^
 
Okay thanks! Btw Jolteon, congrats on the shiny wooper! I havev't had any luck since I caught shiny shinx (who is now a lv.70 Luxray btw).
 
Speaking of the safari zone, last january on leaf green I saw i nice red ryhorn. I was going to catch it but it fled.:( Oh well... (I was stupid to kill that golden bellsprout which I saw last jan as well(on Lf))

CONGRATS!

As for me I am collecting a lot of money from the old people to get me some Max Repels. For some reason on my game they wont get past 40. they have been at 40 for 3 weeks now

I'm still chaining Ralts, it's so frustrating cause I can't get past 25! Also, my PC is broken so I can't post in the forums as often :S

Pippi! Pi!
I got lucky today. :p I ran into a shiny cleffa on only the fourteenth link in the chain. I'm going to keep going in case I can run into more, but I'm more than satisfied already. ^-^ Clefairy is my favorite pokemon, lol.

Just keep battling them. They'll eventually get up to level 60. Then give out lots of money.

Lol, I got max money from beating them as much as I did. xD!

I was trying for Shinx, Growlithe, and Sentret today on Diamond.. failed on all accounts. I'll keep trying though.. I'm taking a break to catch the Regis on Sapphire so I can catch (and maybe SR for a shiny) Regigigas(sp?)
 
I have 18 shinies and 3 are No good hacks obtained from trades.

I have most of my favorite pokemon in Shiny Form.
