Only got 3 in all the years of Pokemon playing.
-- First ever was a shiny Chespin as my starter in Y. It was late at night, I had to go to bed, but I wanted a fresh game for the day after to use all the baby 'mons I dropped in the freshly open Pokemon Bank. So as the game started my half asleep brain had trouble to comprehend what was going on. But here it was.
-- Second was a shiny Noctowl in Platinum. I didn't cared at all for that 'mon, but eh, it shined. So he ended up as my second HM slave.
-- Final one. In Moon, I was hunting for a Togedmaru. I wanted that cute steel/electric 'mon for my team, but I had trouble finding one. After an eternity of running in circle, the first Toge finally appeared. And he was shiny. Because why not. He wasn't super good, but he was a bro for my first Moon playthrough.
