First shiny I ever saw was a Poochyena in Sapphire. Being a dumb kid I just ran away for some reason and didn't realize it's significance till later. Luckily I caught I a shiny Goldeen in the safari zone later, and I've caught multiple shinies every gen after that, so I feel like that makes up for it. In fact, I recently caught a shiny Quagsire, wasn't even friend safari.
