My first legit shiny was back then in the original Silver, was a shiny Meowth in the route next to Ecruteak where Raikou used to hang out a lot.
Next one in the same game, I think same year even, shiny bellsprout in the route south to Cerulean City.
Accidentally killed it. Hated myself.
FLASH FOWARD Pokemon Diamond, no pokeradar, shiny Noctowl.
Then a Shiny... candle pokemon in Black version (forgot its name)
That's my shiny history, I'm not counting the ones I got with pokeradar becase using it for getting shinies is worthless, real luck-based shinies from the past are the ones with real value, not the common ones here.
