I like too many of them, can't pick one. But the top 3 that come to my mind are: flygon, munna and ponyta. I also found and caught a shiny jolly rattata in ss.

Did anyone else run into a shiny before you get Pokéballs in gen 3 and 4?

That was a good read.

I was so blessed that day. I eventually gave it to my boyfriend to create a Silver team.

OP here. Almost caught a legit shiny once. But it was at the beginning of the game where you get no pokeballs.

Y'know, when I first saw rattata in gen I/II, I thought this was its original color. It wasn't until I watched the anime where I was proven wrong.

In my current ruby version I'm trying to catch surskit, when I ran into a shiny female zigzagoon.

Still no sign of surskit though

I caught a shiny Bibarel in the Safari Zone once (but didn't hold onto it for some stupid reason).

There's nothing like the mixture of elation and fear you experience when you encounter a Safari Zone shiny.

I was lucky it was an easy-catch mon though.

I can't imagine the feeling. I lost my shit when I came across a standard issue Yanma in Diamond, because to the best of my knowledge those things were rarer than hamburger flavoured toothpaste. I put 20 balls on that guy, but I got him. I dread to imagine how I would react of I came across a shiny however.
