This little guy back in Gold.
I had just gotten the Old Rod and I was fishing up a storm in Violet City trying to level something up. I had already caught a normal Poliwag, and the shiny isn't drastically different from the regular one, but I saw those sparkles and had a gut feeling that it was really important. I caught it and used that bro all through the game. Never evolved him past Poliwhirl because I couldn't decide between Poliwrath and Politoed, so he stayed as a gorgeous bright blue tadpole until the battery gave out.
I miss my first shiny.
