    This has probably been done before but what was your first shiny? What game was it in and say anything else interesting about. The shiny gyarados at lake of rage does not count.

    My first shiny was an onix in pokemon silver in rock tunnel. I was actually looking for a kangaskhan. I didnt know about shinies then, i thought that the red gyarados was like a special, only alternate colour pokemon that exists thing. Everything in my team was a ridiculously high level at the time so i ended up throwing about 60 of my ultra balls at it (i had like 400) as i was afraid to try to weaken it.. The thing nearly died from using struggle. Anyway, she is now a shiny steelix and currently resides in my pokemon crystal.

    She is the only shiny i have ever found.

    Mine is was a Whismur, then a Diglet. That's it for me, but today my friend found a shiny Machoke, so I traded with him and then back and he got a shiny Machamp, not bad.

Overall ive owned a bunch of shinys...purple wurmple (my first in ruby/sapphire), red zigzagoon, black zubat, lime green tangela, and maybe a few others, cant remember.

    Mine was a shiny Machoke. I was simply chaining, and then.. *Shing! Sparkle sparkle" And there it was!

    The first Shiny I came across was a Hariyama, and guess what!!

    ... It blew me away with Whirlwind :/

    My first Shiny that I actually caught, was Shinx in my first successful Poké Radar chain in Pearl.
    After 8 years of playing, it's about darn time! >:O

    I remember it because I used my Master Ball on it. xP

    I was freaking out cause I'd never seen or heard of shiny Pokemon before, so when I saw that golden Pidgey I knew I HAD to catch it.

    I have once found a Tentecruel with green eyes in Silver.
    But the game restarted for unknown reason and now the only shiny i have is the Gyarados
    Also i remember someone having a blue mew, but he never traded it.
    Back then i just wanted 5 pkmn to fill my Dex. now almost 80
