What was your first shiny in Sun/Moon and Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon?

Mine was Charjabug in Sun. I think it has a cool red color, although, I do like its green color.
Didn't encounter one on Ultra Sun.

I hatched a shiny Dhelmise in Moon first, and in Ultra Sun I got a pikipek. I'm trying to get a shiny riolu now.

I caught a shiny Slowpoke at Route 1 in Pokémon Sun before I got the Shiny Charm. I've haven't caught any shinies in Ultra Sun yet.

Inkay. I was still in the middle of the single player campaign and it just popped up.

Though I'm pretty sure I had the Shiny Charm by that point.

Shiny Carbink in Pokemon Moon. The only other shiny I obtained so far was a Heliolisk in Ultra Sun by the Ultra Warp Ride.

I was on my way back from Professor Kukui’s lab near the beginning of the story and found a random shiny Wingull. Put it in the box right away since it had a bad nature.

Caterpie is my first in Moon. I came across it randomly, and it threw me for a loop. Then later on I hatched a shiny Snorlax and a shiny Feebas.

Pokemon Moon(already played one Sun). It was a shiny Pelliper

I come and go suddenly
My first shiny in Moon was a Mudbray. Then I found a Finneon later. Both of these were found and caught before I even finished the game, so full odds for both.
In Ultra Moon, the first shiny I got was an Abra from breeding Pokémon with Synchronise. I wasn't even trying for a shiny, it just happened.

All of these were found without me even trying to look for them so they were surprising encounters.

I hatched a Shiny Nyabby (Litten) in Moon version a few months ago. I didn't necessarily want that as my first Gen VII Shiny, but I guess I shouldn't complain too much.

On Sun, I hatched a shiny Magby. I raised it into a Magmortar and used it as my Flame Body-egg hatching Pokemon.

Haven't found a shiny of my own on USUM, but I did receive a shiny Anorith from Wonder Trade.

Encounter:
Golbat in S/M, while randomly traveling through Mt. Lanakila. I don't have Shiny Charm yet at that time, so it was a full odds shiny encounter.
Meanwhile in US/UM, I already got the Shiny Charm before I even reached Mallow's trial, and yet no shiny encounter until I reached postgame lol. My first shiny encounter was Blacephalon during postgame, which I intentionally hunt.

Non-encounter:
None in S/M, since they shiny locked literally everything that's not the starter, and the starter scene is so long I couldn't be bothered to SR.
In US/UM however, I successfully SR-ed for a Shiny Rowlet as my starter.

Female Shiny Rowlet as my starter in Sun, only in 1 SR and my intention was only to get a benefitting nature.

I am yet to encounter a Shiny Pokémon in Sun / Moon or Ultra Moon.

Back when Tigers used to smoke.
My first shiny encounter would a Blue Mienfoo in USUM... I thought it looked awesome until I looked at his color scheme in his evolved form... it's just... pink... how does it go from blue to pink?

Got a Shiny Zygarde from an event for my Ultra Sun like 2 weeks ago. That was a nice event.

EDIT: Today I've caught a shiny Quagsire in Ultra Sun! :)
