I've encountered one singular shiny pokemon. It was a Graveller ... You all know where this is going....
Anamethatwasntused
I caught a shiny Garydos in gold/silver... That's it. Not one since. I've been playing for 20 years... What's wrong with me :(
Anamethatwasntused
Also, in case ya don't know, you get that gyrados from the story...
MattMcC980
I'm with you that is the only shiny I've ever had as well
Bestuserman
If a shiny Pokemon evolves does it lose the shininess?
Hardalor
I joked about restarting Pokemon Sun over and over until I got a Shiny starter. Considered it, looked up chance, gave up.
happycampy
only shiny i ever came across was makuhita, sat for a second trying to decide if i should catch it, but don't like makuhita so killed it. XD
Kaylarra
I'm albino. I demand a shiny Pokemon XD
smashpro1
I have a Bulbasaur I was just gonna Wonder Trade away.
Yakofalltrades
I caught a shiny Tentacool on Fire Red, I've been transferring it up, Gen after Gen :')
MorrighanWolf
@ElbowDeepInAHorse Gotta have those Pokemon feels.
ScruffyJosh
Caught a shiny zubat on Y, then accidentally traded it to some random
SnxLorde
I played Pokemon for most of my childhood, and replay the first four gens on occasion. I have yet to see a non-hard coded Shiny.
Freenpup
I found a shiny Metapod at 3 am on Crystal, the gold pallet made think of Kakuna so I named it Busdrill thinking of the Beedrill, me dumb
Cliffy1616
My 1st shiny was Ralts in Alpha Sapphire and before that Id only come across a shiny Ratata back in Fire red/Leaf green days which I killed/
Talonchis
Ouch. That has to suck.
Cliffy1616
Not realising what a shiny was at the time.
JojosCandyBaron
I was a very lucky child in pokemon 'cause i encountered many shinys and captured them, now i wish i could have this luck in real life :(
SpanishInquisitioner
I don get the shiny human part
Talonchis
He's albino. Different color. Shiny.
SpanishInquisitioner
Now that you said something, I see the red dots in the eyes, Thank you!
Master0125
Hey im here to ask a question.Can a onix learn flamethrower? Because i just rememberd while playing fire red again that i had a onix with it
RubberRaptor
I found a shiny deerling, the only shiny I’ve ever seen. It sparkled and my fat thumbs in grind mode mercilessly one hit killed it. I cried.
OctopusOccult
My first shiny ever was a golden caterpie in fire red. Thought my gameboy glitched and killed it without thinking twice.
UltraLegoGamer
I can't remember the Pokemon that was shiny, but I did find one in black 2 and killed it because I didn't notice it was shiny.
ensensu
When will cops get pokeballs and use them on people?
APX1031
I was lucky enough to get a shiny Magikarp...best day ever
bradphill920
Butterkarp.
caddywrangler
Also got a shiny Karp
AeonQuasars
You can find a shiny gyarados in the g/s/c game though.
Talonchis
Ya, but not Magikarp.
Jerrynstf
Shits gold bruv
WiserDucksLivesLonger
Found a shiny Psyduck in Crystal. 1 pokéball, didn't work. Found a shiny Graveler later, it used Self Destruct on the first turn.
MordorGate
Caught a shiny geodude and a shiny magikarp in all my days
OctopusOccult
Back in gen 2 shiny pokemon meant more too. They were only shiny on a certain set of IV's. Shiny pokemon were almost perfect stat why.
WiserDucksLivesLonger
Did later find, and catch, a shiny Herdier in Pkmn Black. But it just wasn't the same.
RedKitsunePower
The only shiny I’ve ever seen is the Gyrados in Soul Silver and I couldn’t even catch it
Lahoura
My first shiny was a rhydon, it felt ironic and I enjoyed that, the second was a Pidgey in... Safari zone. It ran immediately
smashpro1
Just hatched a shiny Bulbasaur, today.
Starrkprimera
What game?
smashpro1
Ultra Sun.
SwitchLover
I have a few in x and y ones a ditto which is cool
bbueller
"But shiny pokémon are meaningless!" "Bro, we're all distracting ourselves from our own mortality. Get with the program."
SeriouslyAwkward
Bruh this comics wrong. Shiny Pokemon inherently have higher IV stats. Internal value stat. Think of this as better genetics. They stronger
SeriouslyAwkward
Than your normal colored Pokemon lol.
OctopusOccult
In gen 2 shiny pokemon only occured on a certain set of IV's, so if you found one you knew it had almost perfect stats.
Askingforafriend37
At best a little over 2/3 perfect, since it was always def/spec/spe at 10/15 and attack could be a couple different values.
Goatsarepeople
Na son, embrace your mortality. You can do way more insane shit when you accept your gonna die regardless.
EhIWonderHowLongAUsernameCanBeLetsFindOutShallWeAaandThereItIs
Only catched a shiny Loudred. That's all my experience with shinys. I dont even like Loudred
BigBearLover
I only caught 1 shiny pokemon in the wild.. .A Shiny Magicarp in pokemon Silver..........................
IsoPropylPotatene
I've seen one shiny in all my days. It was on emerald. One of those hedgehog things. I saw it BEFORE YOU EVEN GET YOUR GODDAMN POKEBALLS.
vStonie
I got a shiny diglett on ruby. Only difference is it's nose was blue, and you can't see it's nose when battling so pretty much a waste
GiantDad420
I've only ever gotten a Shiny Tauros. Miss you, Hornlord.
Shortendoftheleg
I got 5 besides scripted garados and event Pokemon. Magicarp, furret, spinda, cubone, and something stupid like hypno which is pink...
KingXizor
I've only ever seen 1 shiny. A fucking goddamn minun in Ruby. Instead of blue and yellow, it's blue-green and the same yellow.
26PoundsOfAnalLeakage
Only shiny I ever had was a shiny milotic. Didn't realize how rare that was until years down the road
Heebygeebies
Found a shiny onix in Pokemon gold....right after running out of pokeballs :(
khakibandit
Growlithe in fire red or leaf green can't remember which roared me
RogueEwok
This exact same thing happened to me! I literally sat there for about 10 minutes in utter disbelief.
Allanonshea1
Zigzagoon
TheDarkNerd
Shiny Pidgey in the same area where you see Red Gyarados in Silver. Totally thought shiny pokemon was a feature of that area.
AeonQuasars
Got my first and only one shiny in sapphire. A manectric. Except if you ignore the scripted shiny gyarados in silver/gold/crystal
NowWatchMeGlitch
Shiny Eevee on alpha sapphire. Had to see the game, though. I miss my Eevee....
NowWatchMeGlitch
Sell*
DelightfullyOdd
Shiny Tangela in Crystal, and a shiny Wingull in Sapphire.
zeo868
aaah a green toilet birb
ManicYEEtPressive
Shiny kangaskhan in Pokemon gold. Murdered it, then realized what I did. Spent hours looking for it again :(
Kaslai
I got a shiny geodude in Silver and thought little of it. I didn't realize how rare it is until I realized I never saw one in any later game
IsoPropylPotatene
RIP.
icephoenix
My only shiny is also from Emerald...but it's....it's Kyogre...I'm sorry please don't hurt me
SuperiorPosterior
My very first Shiny Pokemon was a Shiny Grubbin, the very first one I ever came across. I've been playing since Fire Red.
ArrowheadCosplay
Oh my sweet child... Yet to catch one and I've played since ares and blue
SuperiorPosterior
Aye, I'm only 23 and only got a GBA at the same time I got FireRed, and my OG copy was a used one with 99 Master Balls.
ArrowheadCosplay
Lol it's all good I'm 26
Kizsurian
I've never had one in all my years of playing, but my husband got a shiny Sentret within 2min of leaving the starter town. Bastard.
MrJaunty
Only non-scripted, non-trade shiny I've ever seen was a Geodude, on my original Silver cartridge. It used Explosion.
Stronghold07
Poetry.
SuperFrogsLessFunnyCousin
I feel this. My first shiny was a Graveler that did the same thing in Crystal
OneShucklak
I have shinys out the ass, a couple boxes worth if i remember
Talonchis
I got a Sneasel and Jynx back in the day, either Gold or Crystal.
Aingelproject667
I saw one on Emerald too. I thought it was just a graphics glitch, so I ran. I look back on that day with great shame.
Scornn
Only ever caught a shiny sneasel back in GBA silver. Never a one since.
WaterblightGanon
only ever saw one shiny without doing a technique for one. i encountered it with the same pokemon species i spent hours chaining before.
billcosbyismydad98
Only two shines, a nosepass and A FUCKING MALE COMBEE
billcosbyismydad98
I also got pokeurus or whatever that thing is called and a shiny pikachu in Pokemon go, but holy fuck shiny combee
Itchycheesestick
ah i had a similar experience. first shiny ever was in emerald it was poochyena, also before you get pokeballs. hurt so bad as a kid
DarthMaulOfAmerica
I have a shiny foongus in Y and I cherish the lil thing. I have a shiny rattata in a modded rom but I don't think I can count that
Talonchis
Not sure what you mean by modded rom? Inbox me? I'd be interested in upping my mod game.
Talonchis
Rom game*
DarthMaulOfAmerica
Look up sacredgold/stormsilver. Guy made mods for hg/ss roms. Did so for Gen 5 games too.
DarthMaulOfAmerica
You'll need to already have the original roms I think. DM me if you got questions
OctopusOccult
I have see 2. One was a caterpie in firered, the other a wurmple in emerals. Played every game until x and y without seeing another one.
TheOneTrueGosh
I only have one shiny, a Pidgey caught at the very beginning of the game. I named her Goldie, and she has surprisingly decent stats.
Booomlord
Also in Emerald. AN Arron on Victory Road
stonebrood
hedgehog things? the only hedgehog pokemon is from like 6th gen. wtf are you talking about
adventuresandstories
................... Sandslash?
stonebrood
not a hedgehog and that's not in the beginning of emerald so I highly doubt that's what he's referring to
stonebrood
oh before your pokeballs. zigzagoon maybe? do you not have fucking raccoons where you're from?
Jollytothegreen
Raccoons are not hedgehogs
spamstafford
Raccoons are pretty much only found in North America.
stonebrood
raccoon dogs look the same and are japanese and there's a lot of them in germany for some reason
IsoPropylPotatene
Yeah that thing. They look nothing like fucking raccoons have you ever seen one of the pieces of shit? I guess the eyes are similar.
stonebrood
it's called fucking zigzagOON what the fuck else would you think it's based on
IsoPropylPotatene
OON? Oh i dunno maybe a spoon. Or a balloon. Or a hedgehog. Causes it's pointy. Maybe a porcupine. It's fuckin pointy dude. Raccooon's ain't
IcyLucario
Shaymin (Ground) is pretty hedgehog-y.
stonebrood
yeah that's from like gen 6 tho. or 5 I don't fucking know
IZ42
Gen 4
stonebrood
right yeah I started playing again around 6 so I have no idea
rubyfox10
I caught a shiny pikachu in Pokémon Go. It took me way too long to figure out it was shiny ????
grimmspoon722
I caught three shiny dratinis during the station event. One for my account and two on my son's
moricai
I caught a shiny gyarados in Silver, then I ended up having two including the scripted one.
IsoPropylPotatene
I would trade my firstborn for a shiny magikarp. That's pretty cool tho. Gyarados has always been my second favorite pokeman.
AnotherAbortedFetusNecrophiliac
Deal
certifiedllama
Who is your first? Third?
IsoPropylPotatene
First magikarp. Third. Uh. Dunno. Been awhile. Charizard?
creepyfridge
You should try sos chaining
IsoPropylPotatene
Sounds like work. I'm never having kids so the 'firsborn' thing isn't such a big deal. You can trade firstborns in IOUS btw. Common practice
ButCanTheyBeatGoku
First time I ever saw a shiny was a shiny Geodude in pokemon diamond
FriendlyUntilBorderlineSaysNo
Me too!
RetailCat
First shiny for me was a Diglett. I was incredibly disappointed. Next was a Weedle. I got a bit sad.
Zinic
Sorry to hear.
zeo868
I saw my only shiny in diamond, in the cave double battle thing, my ally 1 shot it
freezinater
Friend of mine had a similar situation in Alpha Sapphire. He found a shiny Wurmple. Jokingly spawned a whole party of them into his (1/2)
freezinater
game when I found out about that exploit that let you spawn in Pokemon via QR code through the 3DS browser. Good times. (2/2)
Bendorff
Mine was a shiny arbok on a ROM of Heartgold and then later a shiny zangoose on a legit Omega Ruby.
sufferingplanet
My ex started her pokemon white game and it gave her a shiny snivy... She hadn't played pokemon since red/blue and had no idea until i sawit
TheGreatClockworkJohnson
I once got a shiny starter before I knew what a shiny was and restarted my game cause I thought it was glitched.
ButteryCommissar
That's what you get for being a filthy heretic. :3
TheLannistersSendALovelyFruitBasket
I caught a shiny ratata once in soul silver. Literally screamed when it appeared.
Trninga
Once got a shiny Groudon in Ruby.
Xyzair
The first maril I ever saw was a shiny maril, I was out of pokeballs at the time.
grim5000
The only shiny I ever saw was in emerald as well. It was a godude. In the battle frontier.
grim5000
So I had no chance in hell of catching it
cool299
The first shiny I encountered was in emerald too. It was a geodude and it used self destruct on the first turn
RamPlunk
Saw a shiny exeggcute in the safari zone once in firered. It ran but I didn’t even know what it was until years later
diamondwolf123
i Was oddly convenient enough to find a shiny eevee in alpha sapphire after i was trying to find one to get a sylveon. very first 1/2
diamondwolf123
eevee i found after 45 minutes of grinding above rustboro city, it was a shiny. at 11:30 pm. I was suspicious that it was guaranteed. Nope.
diamondwolf123
Playing emerald i found a shiny peliper but it immediately fled from me. And i caught a red gyrados in pokemon diamond while
diamondwolf123

FlyinHawaiian13
I've caught 3. And somehow lost all three cartridges that they were on
freesnowcone
Saw shiny zubat once during a sequence where you’re paired with another trainer. Not allowed to catch it. Wept pathetically.
MapleDuke
The only I’ve ever seen was in Pokémon Uranium... fuck me and my luck
MackenzieBowen
Same game, shiny larion in victory road... used roar ;-;
Allanonshea1

Diyamin
When you max your stats in strength but put none into luck.
ArchdukeFranzFerdinand
I caught a shiny Ursaring in Pokemon Y.
Phenomeno
I got a shiny Psyduck but I didn't know what shinies were. I assumed it was even more psychicy but I was mistaken :(
Silverwingedfluff
I had that happen with Ratatta before in Silver.
