Leave my posts alone
Spearow
Version: Gold
Found: The route from Viridian to the League.

Wasn't even looking for it; was going to Victory Road for training.

I still have it, but the file on my Gold is 'corrupted' and I will not start again, in case its possible to save it...
 
You are right shuamdom67 I probably should have specified but its not the best idea to correct others and then double post. ^_^

thanks every one for sharing, but i still dont have one besides garados >_<

To all posters doing the cookie/rare candy thing I'll give them one.

NOt counting the gyrados. My first shiny was a shiny ponyta on my diamond version back in november on my japanese diamond. Then my second was kricketot about 2 months later. I didn't look for either of these, but I spent 2 weeks finding a shiny abra at the game corner on LG. I've found a total of 3 shinies. The others are all from trades.

My first (and only) shiny was Goldeen. I got it at the safari zone. I had no idea until I was checking my pokemon while I was at the Toys R Us Mew event.

My first shiny...
I'm pretty sure it was Drowzee in Silver. I just ran into it randomly one day, I wasn't looking for it on purpose. It was purple, and when I saw it I thought something was wrong with the game and it screwed up XD

About three years ago, while playing my Sapphire, I was just leveling up my pokemon in the victory road, when I encountered a shiny Zubat, but that save file is now deleted..

First shiny I caught: Graveler
Ball: Master Ball
What happened: It was on the way back from a vacation at Portland, Oregon and we were headed back to Tacoma in our van, I was laying down in the back, searching for an Abomasnow with good stats when I saw a shiny Graveler, I got really excited because it was the first shiny I had ever seen on my game other then shinies from friends, and the red Gyarados in G/S/C. I threw a Master Ball and of course, caught it.

But I don't have good shiny hunting luck. :(

My first shiney R/S was a Golbat at Meteor Falls... I was stealing sun stones from Solrocks, when it randomly appears.

My first D/P shiny was a Gastrodon I found whilst training my Charmeleon on Route 218. I found it on the 3rd of July, 2007, according to my game.

The first shiny I ever saw, was my Zubat. Day 2 of playing, 7:34 approx.
It was in diamond. I wasn't lookin' for it. It just appeared in the cave below Floarama. I called it Greenage. Lol.

I'm not counting the Shiny Gyarados.

1st one I got was Krabby.
I got it in Leafgreen, the water in the south of Pallet Town if I remember.
I don't remeber how long ago I got it. Probably whatever year Leafgreen came out.
I wasn't looking for it, I was trying to get a Staryu.
Also, I think I was fishing.

It's not considered caught, but it's my first Shiny seen in-game.

What was your first shiney?
-A Shiny Hariyama
Where did you get it?
-I did'nt caught it, sadly, it used Whirlwind on me. It's on Victory Road. I was going back from the Elite Four to the cave then a few steps, boom. It's in my Emerald.

When did you get it?
-I think a year ago.

if you were looking for one, how long were you looking?
-I was'nt expecting it, I was so shocked I almost fainted. But sadly, I did'nt caught it.
