My first shiny was a Natu in Crystal, but since then I've run into a Pelipper in Sapphire (no longer have) and a Zubat in Sapphire's Victory Road, which is currently on my Pearl game as a Crobat. I've also recently caught a Roselia in Diamond and another Zubat in Mt. Moon in a FireRed nuzlocke. Sort of broke the rule to catch it, but transferred it into Diamond soon after. The second Zubat shall remain a Zubat forever.

My first was a maril in ruby on my second play through when I was 12 found it right outside the daycare and eventually I evolved her and Nader her my strongest pokemon. then when firered came out I found a shiny abra but was not able to catch it, later on in that game I found a furret and was able to catch it. I no longer have either shinies since I restarted both games hoping to start fresh

My first shiny was also a Crobat from Sapphire. It was from a used copy that I bought at gamestop. That baby also had a Milotic. I was freaking stoked when I got it. Still have that Crobat to this day on my R/S Pokebox game and all the Feebas/Milotic I have are decendants of that original Milotic.

Same. Don't feel bad.

You, everyone who hasn't found a shiny yet, and I, will eventually find an awesome shiny Pokemon someday.

Someday. ;~;

Here's a story, gents.

>be last year
>bred a DW Poliwag, needed a King's Rock to evolve
>read that wild Poliwhirls and Poliwraths hold them
>dicking around in Wellspring cave searching for one w/ a King's Rock
>find one, no item kill it
>encounter a second one
>huh, it's green
>Green
>HOLY FUCK
>spam my Furret's weakest move until Poliwrath reaches low yellow
>start chucking Net Balls
>after burning through 15 or so, I catch him
>wake my gf up with my exuberant shouts of victory
>show it off to her like I'm 11 years old
>train that slick mother fucker

Jump to today
>replaying Platinum for lulz and for stuff to complete national dex in W2 to obtain shiny charm to MM for a Eevee
>decide I need good water type for my in-game team
>decide to catch a Remoraid in HeartGold and trade it to Platinum
>fishing, nothing but Poliwags and Magikarps
>like an omen from Arceus, I pull an ice blue Poliwag out from the depths
>mouth agape in wonder and bewilderment, I catch the little one
>finished EV training her earlier for maximum greatness

And that's how I came to the conclusion that the Poliwag evolutionary family is both my favorite pokemon (plural) and my "spirit pokemon"

Palpark it to Platinum rom and get the .pkm file using pokegen. You can then use pokecheck or something similar to send it to a cart.

First Shiny was Makuhita, since then though I've run into: Starly, Budew, and Roggenrola. I've never actually been unable to capture a Shiny I've found. Thank god.

I know that feel. I've gotten both a Purrloin and Banette on an emulator. Regular Rom, no cheats.
