Hey /vp/. I'm 18, played pokemon now for 12 years and you know what. I've seen 3 shinys. 2 of them on an emulator so I barely count them but only 1 on my Game Boy, the one that got away ( My sweet Mareep from Silver).

How many have you encountered and am I the only one feeling a bit left out?

Not counting emulators, i've only ever seen one, a Shiny magnemite in Soul Silver, which I caught, had terrible stats, and never used.

Never got the poke bank either, so it's sitting in my cartridge, waiting to be lost forever.

Same here. Only one, a shiny Golbat on Mt. Silver in HG. What's up with Gen. 2 and the remakes that make shinies appear so much?

Maybe it has to do with the red Gyrados

Let's see.

I encountered a shiny Meowth in Silver.
Then in Ruby I got a Seedot, Marill, Tentacool, in Emerald I caught a shiny Wurmple and shiny Lotad. Then in Fire Red I caught 2 shiny Parasects.

My shiny luck ended until X/Y. First I encountered a shiny Scatterbug within the first hours. Then I got a shiny Frogadier in Safari, shiny Dragonair, and then more horde and safari shinies than I can count (about a dozen or so).

-Sceptile
-Hydreigon
-Metagross
-Salamence
-Bisharp
-Gastrodon
-Rhydon

-Ampharos
-Scizor
-Aerodactyl

The fact that I didn't know what a Repel did or ever used it until like late R/S/E also changed my whole perspective. Now I cant go a single step without a repel and I sure as hell don't like walking in the god damn grass haha
