Back in 2004 my brother and I where running through emerald when I first found a blue electrike. We both didn't know what it meant and I was too afraid to let it evolve, thinking I would lose the rare critter 😂
My first shiny was a Ho-Oh in Heart Gold, my little pea brain at the time has 0 concept of what a shiny pokemon was (no clue that was a thing) even after catching the Red Gyarados. I thought the little shiny splash affect was because it was a Ho-Oh. After battling it and capturing it I was looking in my PC and noticed a little red star in its bio that no other pokemon had expect, you guessed it, my Shiny Gyarados. That Ho-Oh is sitting in my bank unmoved since the release of Sun and Moon.
The first shiny I ever had was in Sapphire, I was surfing to level my mons before the flying gym and found a shiny Wingull, at the time I had no idea what shiny pokemon were, but I caught it anyways because it had green on it and younger me thought my mum would like it, since green was her favorite color
I never did get to show her the shiny, my save file corrupted and I lost everything But, I was able to find another after I started playing through Sword, and to this day, that shiny wingull is still on my team, I'm not evolving it, since the one I had in Sapphire held an everstone, and she helped me through many battles, despite being the only non-evolved mon on my team
My first shiny was a shiny Abra in Pokemon Emerald, I was so confused since I saw the shiny effect but it didn't look any different from non shiny Abra, it was just a slightly brighter version, I was kind of sad because I thought that I had gotten the worst shiny in the game, but then I evolved it into Alakazam and it looked kind of good
I was playing pokemon X, on the route with all the giant stones. I was trying to find a Sigilyph with a Special attack raising nature. I spent 20 minutes, when a shiny one appeared. I caught it and it also had the nature i wanted so i was so happy 😁
from what i can remember, my first ever true shiny was a shiny surf pikachu from usum. i never truly shiny hunted in the past gens, but when i realized i could get a damn shiny surf alolan raichu (which imo has the coolest shiny), i HAD to get it. and so i did. for context, getting a surf pikachu in usum is quite tedious, especially if you wanna shiny hunt for it. the only way to get this pikachu was by completing all manatee surf missions and beating this dude's high scores. after that, youll get an invite to meet that person, and, after sitting through a bunch of dialogue, he gifts it to you. this meant that i had to soft reset every single time and sit through that dialogue over and over until i got the shiny. but it absolutely paid off. i ended up getting a female surf pikachu with a PERFECT jolly nature. not only did I get the gender i want (i wanted the lil heart tail), i also got the BEST possible nature for it. so, my first ever shiny hunt ended up becoming my most rare shiny hunt. p.s., i'd end up naming her after my girlfriend❤
My first shiny Pokémon was a shiny Swablu on that one foggy route in Platinum. I didn’t know what a shiny was at the time, but I caught it because it looked special.
My first shiny was an Audino. I also didn’t know what shiny’s were at the time, so I used it because I thought it was a legendary. I look back and laugh because I found it after the 7th gym. So I learned the hard way that it was trash.
Mine was an unknown in heartgold. I didn’t know why it was blue or what a shiny was. But I thought it was apart of researching the unknowns so I caught it
My first shiny story is a bit boring but is exciting to me none the less, I was doing a play-through of alpha sapphire while on a road trip with my family, I was walking in some tall grass right outside a town when i encountered a full odds, random encounter, shiny skitty, I managed to catch it and named it Panda after my dead cat
My first shiny was a Swablu from Pokémon emerald. I remembered it being a rainy day and catching that golden bird in the dark. I never seen anything shine so beautifully like that.
My first shiny was a bronzor on I don't know what game and I thought every bronzor was green until years later coz I never found one again until I played another game
First shiny was psyduck's evolve in Firered back when i was 9 and i didn't understand the star animation, but i got him anyway "just in case" 😭 Still got it after all these years, and he followed me in all the new Pokemon games that got release after that 😁
Nice, my first was a random zubat, also fire red! Coincidentally just yesterday I was replaying dimond and found another random shiny zubat, so I guess I have a -atk nature crowbat on my team lol!
White and black will always be my favorite it was my first pokemon game and spent many car rides, playing with friends, and late nights on that game. And honestly from the other games ive played in the series emerald and platinum, then white and black 2 are the others ones ive enjoyed so far. I havent played any of the switch games though gotta do that soon.
Just got my first ever shiny. I’ve played diamond, pearl, platinum, heartgold, soulsilver, black and white, and black and white 2 since i was maybe 12. last night i walked onto route 10 after defeating iris in pokemon white and a shiny throh popped up. wasnt expecting it at all and it’s the coolest thing that’s ever happened to me in any game.
@@alphax7777 see, the funny thing about that, is male buneary still evolves into lopunny. a very fruity lopunny, but a lopunny nonetheless. meanwhile my poor little stupid bastard will remain a combee for the rest of his days
My first shiny was in usum, just by random chance, i entered a wormhole and found a shiny hippowdon. Needless to say i was pretty excited when i found it
Fun fact, my first shiny was a Zekrom from pokemon shield. I had just gotten the DLC from a friend and he took me into the max raid for the legendaries for the first time, and it was a Zekrom. I didn't know you could only catch the legendaries once so since it was my first, I picked Zekrom and moved on with my day. I only found out it was shiny the next day when I first used it in battle and it started glowing green. I have never shiny hunted before so I just have a shiny Zekrom in my team now because it makes me happy.
My first shiny was a ditto in HeartGold. I was pretty young and had no idea how rare shinies were, so I was like ‘oh cool a blue ditto’ and then ran away
@@hossamshalaby358 i gave up on Pokémon Go because there are literally no Pokémon near where I live. I heard that Pokémon lets go is good too but I dropped that game because I just couldn’t manage to catch Pokémon there.
I just recently got a shiny Oshawatt, I wasn’t farming for it, just did a few resets for a good nature and gender and after 9 minutes I got my perfect little dudet.
My first shiny pokemon was in post game of pokemon Y. I was in the friend safari and I saw a miss colored pansear. I wasn't sure if it was shiny or not. I caught the thing and it was.
There’s a few ways I can take the “first shiny” first one hatched was a charmander, first one used was a beedrill given to me, and the first one I caught was Joltik
My first shiny in general was actually my first Pokémon which was charmander and I didn’t realize until a month later how rare he was because there are no other starter Pokémon in the game and i never reset
My first shiny was a Haunter in Pokémon Y. I was trying to get all the Vivillion forms and someone on the gts was trading a scatterbug for a beartic so I was looking for one in the ice cave when I found the shiny haunter. I caught her and named her Sickle and now she’s in Pokémon Shield with me 🥰
I’m amazed that it took until Ghetsis for such reckless play to catch up with you in any way… faded a 90% Take Down on badge 1, got crucial Focus Blast and Stone Edge misses, Mienshao could’ve killed araneo with Fake Out… a million things could have (arguably should have) gone wrong way before that. That said, this is still an impressive accomplishment with a great final team. Kudos!
my very first shiny was a sentret in Heartgold. I kid you not, i encountered that shiny sentret on my 4-5th encounter of the game. I was playing with a friend at the time (he was playing Soulsilver next to me) and we were both going crazy xD Fun Fact: Also within that game, one of my pokemons got a pokerus like 2h into the game. My friend and i had no idea what a pokerus was back then, so i just kept playing normally until all my party pokemon recovered from the pokerus. So unfortunately, i couldn't spread the pokerus to all the pokemons i would later use. Still, my Typhlosion ended up being pretty OP in the end That Heartgold cartridge must've been blessed by god or smth xD
if i only i had friends who love pokemon no one in my school likes it and all these comments about ppl with their friends playing pokémon it makes me think (wow how come there’s barely any ppl in ohio who like pokemon) the only i know who like pokemon are my brother and younger cousin but my brother has work and my cousin doesn’t even play the games he just likes the anime so i’m just like man these ppl lucky they friends like this ( idk y i wrote a whole essay i bet no one cares)
Well, the Gyarados at the Lake of Rage was technically my first shiny every when I was playing Heartgold. The first one I truly encounter a shiny was when I was grinding on Victory Road in Heartgold, I ended up encountering a shiny female Donphan. Funny thing was not long after I caught a shiny male Donphan.
My first shiny was a bellsprout in soul silver, but I ended up failing it cause my game crashed. Then my next shiny, you guessed it, bellsprout again in Pokémon gold. I caught this one lol
i got my first shiny in sun… it was a ratata n i was mad asab, but then i started goin try hard on the masuda and my first one i got breeding was a shiny pichu
My first shiny story was actually pretty sick. I always loved heartgold and thats all I would play. At one point I figured out you could get kyogre, groudon amd rayquaza in it but at the time I only had a dsi and only heartgold. After a few years I got to know this guy at school who was a huge fan of old nintendo consoles and funny enough he had 1 single pokemon game and that was soul silver so he gave it and a second ds to me so I could trade myself the groudon to get rayquaza. Once I traded it over I was like "well if I‘m gonna get rayquaza I might aswell put the effort in to get it shiny cause its literally my favourite shiny". So like every person I was preparing for like hours of just sitting there soft resetting a couple thousand times but no.. after like 4 softresets I actually got it which was sooo lucky
My first shiny was a really good full odd female ralts in my legit copy of platinum so I was super excited cause gardeviour is one of my fav psychics and it’s got an amazing shiny, anyway long story short it used teleport without me even throwing a pokeball :/ I haven’t picked up that game since :(
*encounter shiny Scraggy* "Is this shiny?" Literally me when I did a similar run to this in Emerald and got a shiny Plusle lol. I even named it 'Shiny?'
I remember when I was younger and I tried that poison gym and probably cried myself to sleep due to the Whirlipede hitting crits on me like it was the only thing it could do.
My first shiny was a sableye in pokemon emerald! I was probably 7 and was in victory road when I realized that I had encountered a weird orange sableye. I had no idea what shinies were but miraculously, I managed to have enough foresight to catch it and to this day, I have it! It's so special to me
First shiny was weedle in the sevii islands in fire red. Not counting the obvious red gyrados we recieved in g/s/c. I loved that thing, so I always hunted one during the era of mega evolutions ❤️
My first shiny I ever caught was actually the first pokemon I ever caught. Shiny Shinx. I had no idea what Pokemon was, or what shiniest were, but I thought it looked cool so I caught it. I miss you a lot, Scruffy. My second and only other shiny was in February. I was playing HeartGold on my DS Lite while I was recovering from having my wisdom teeth pulled, and without realizing until I was heading back from Mr. Pokemons house, the guy who gives you the Togepi egg, that my Cyndaquil was a shiny. It was a weird experience.
In Pokemon X, I watched a tutorial on how to fish for shinies so I did just that in Shalour City with the Old Rod and I fished up a shiny Luvdisc. That inspired me to hunt for shinies (via fishing and Masuda Method). My luck was on a streak until Sun and Moon (where my luck ran out).
When my brother and I first started playing (HGSS on DS), the first shinies we ever saw were bellsprout and Drowzee, which are both white-ish, so we thought that they were actually albino Pokémon. But the first shiny I ever caught was a shiny Ho-oh which was the third Ho-oh I caught while trying to get a full team of 6 ho-ohs. I had done a bunch of random movements below the ladder that leads to the top of the tower before heading up. And since then, I was dead-set on recreating those movements thinking it would give me another shiny Ho-oh
fun fact but because shinys are determened by ivs and unknowns letters are determined by ivs some letters are actually more likely to be shiny than others just thought that was fun
I decided to play Black 2 after a very long time, my brother owned it but let me reset and play it since he never finished. I was at the farm area (don’t remember it’s name) and I was searching for a Riolu, I found one and was heading to the exit. Before all this happened I told my brother I wouldn’t hunt for shinies since I didn’t know how to transfer them to a newer game. Lo and behold I found a shiny Mareep. (And I almost defeated it on accident by a critical from my Riolu lol)
I had first discovered shiny hunting back in 2011 and wanted to try it for my own shiny. I started on route 1 in Pokemon Black to be safe and not even 10 encounters later I find a shiny Patrat. I screamed when I saw it and successfully caught it. I felt amazing.
after playing through every gen (yes I feel old) my first (legit) shiny (meaning no guaranteed, events, or well cheating it in) was in gen 8 sword with a wild golurk, unfortunately I had to sell my switch during covid and I am now about to buy another one so I am happy to be able to see my golurk again
I really have to admire your dedication to your craft. This must have taken months to do and I'm really quite amazed that you were willing to put up with this game's brutal RNG for so long.
The first shiny I can remember catching, outside of the Red Gyarados in GSC/HGSS, was a shiny Pelipper on Hoenn's Route 128. What's funny is I had released a Pelipper right before surfing onto that route, so I thought that it was shiny because I had released it, and so I caught it again thinking it wanted to come back.
My first legit shiny on cartridge was a full odds zubat in Ultra Sun. At first I was a little sad because Zubat is such a generic pokemon, but Crobat is a beast and I don’t mind the pink color.
I played Pokémon for about 7 or 8 years when i was younger. Never ever saw a single shiny. One day i saw an episode of the Anime where Jessie of Team Rocket battles with a Yanmega. I thought it was a really awesome bug Pokémon so i went to the Safari Zone (this was in Pokémon Platinum) to catch a Yanma. The very first encounter was a baby pink Wooper.
My first ever shiny was a Shinx in Pokémon Platinum. At the time I had a friend who had loads of hacked shinies and as a person who hadn’t heard of the concept of shiny Pokémon at the time, I was convinced you couldn’t get them without hacking the game. So you can imagine my surprise when I was running around in Platinum one day for the lolz and happened to see a golden shinx in the grass. I caught him and for some reason my sister convinced me to trade him away to her. Many years later, I did get him back in Pokémon X. He’s a Luxray now and I’m never giving him up now
My first ever shiny was a Shiny alolan Grimer in Ultra Moon. I was training up my Pichu to raise its friendship and lvl in the grass, and I found a shiny Grimer and named her LuckyCharms. I used her in my team and I was very happy
I’ve found a jigglypuff, scatterbug, caterpie, lillipup, poochyena, and somehow a charmander on route 4 in let’s go. I did shiny hunt for the charmander but I was shiny hunting spearow so we take those
My first shiny was in pokemon moon. I was trying to find a jangmo-o holding a razor claw to evolve my sneasle to complete the pokedex (this was the final entry) when I ran into a shiny skarmory
My first shiny was a shiny combee in pokemon X and it actually was female and even though i was like 9 years old i still noticed it was a diffrent color so i caught it right away. To this day Vespiquen remains one of my favourite Pokemon.
I found a shiny mienfoo, this was years ago so I was a little child, and I was like "oh this is cool" and then I killed it instead of running or even attempting of running
When the shiny gods never bless you: *sad noises* Edit: I GOT A SHINY CATERPIE I will bless the ones with bits of golden caterpie in exchange of my only shiny.
My first shiny was a wingull in Emerald. Had never heard of shinies and named it “SPECIL.” This was long before the battery died so it was a unique shiny frame.
When you name the scraggy Jeans I leggit excited because in my first pokwmon white playthrough I also name my scraggy Jeans and he was one if not the pokemon that I loved the most of my entire team.
My 1st ever shiny was a pink mareep, caught it in my 1st ever pokemon game i've ever owned myself (black 2). Ramdomly walked around the grass to level up my pokemon and it actually was my 1st ever pokemon with pokerus (didnt know what it was, kinda concerned me until i found out what it meant).
These are my favorite games and I’ve put well over 2,000 hours in this game, I’ve found one shiny, a shiny Timburr that ended up having an adamant nature and was a boss on my team
I like that you make videos that would take hours shorten it for us and releases it weekly for us to watch in just a week Appreciate the hard work buddy 😊
I’ve been playing Pokémon since I was 7 years old and I just recently caught my first shiny playing SWSH last year. It was a Riolu! I even already had one in the front of my party but just encountered it because they are a bit rare in the overworld and only come out during a certain weather pattern.
Pokemon black was the first mainstream pokemon game i ever played when i was 11. My starter was Tepig, and was also called "Bacon". coming up im getting a new copy of black as i lost my original as a kid, and will be playing throughout the game with an egg Tepig i gave my brother dated 2012 as my main starter. I've come to this resolution of while I wish younger me had taken better care of his games and the pokemon he had, I have to move on and create new teams with mostly new pokemon, and one familiar face. Thank you for that memory jog of that name. Me and "MM" the tepig will be on are way soon enough.
First shiny was a Spearow. If I was actually paying attention, my first shiny would have been a Zubat that I accidentally ran away from while I was grinding for the Elite 4.
I was so salty that I had never found a shiny after playing for YEARS, so I decided to SR for charmander in leaf green and then found it after only ONE. Game was making it up to me I think
Oh man, my first shiny was in soul silver, at mt silver. After finishing the game, was trying to level my mons and came across a shiny ponyta. The whole line still holds a special spot to this day
My first shiny was from HG a farfetch'd (if that's how you spell it)I got it from the mountain where you can go to the zoo thingy(haven't played the game for months)
"What was your first shiny pokemon?" A golbat I nicknamed "Goltwat" because at that point I was getting sick of being in victory road having forgotten repels.
I still remember me trying to catch terakion I think I failed like 5 times idk it was a long time ago and out of nowhere a flipping Shiny Terakion is right in front of me I was screaming and I literally ran into my brothers room just too say that hahahahahaha ah good old days...
When I was a child I was playing Pokemon sapphire after the post game i went to steven's house and found a shiny beldum i did not react because i thought it is always a shiny
Zubat in my first ever playthrough of platinum, early game too, spurred me on to use it, awesome shiny and even better when it evolves into Crobat and inverts the colours
Zigzagoon was my first ever shiny but was in a rom of emerald in an actual physical game it actually was in black or white and i just turned on the game picked snivy and bam it was shiny.
I’m pretty sure my first shines was a donphan. Was a kid and this was awhile ago lol, showed my brother and we where both shocked. I loved donphan at that point and had my pc full of them.

I only found out it was shiny the next day when I first used it in battle and it started glowing green. I have never shiny hunted before so I just have a shiny Zekrom in my team now because it makes me happy.
If u merge it with Kyrie what happens
My first shiny was a ditto in HeartGold. I was pretty young and had no idea how rare shinies were, so I was like ‘oh cool a blue ditto’ and then ran away
My first shiny was also in heart gold and it was a Rattata smh I was so disappointed
@@christianap1558 x2
a shiny ditto is a goldmine since it makes breeding to get shinies way easier

Update: I finally got one!
Idk if they’re talking about actual Pokémon games but if not Pokémon go
@@hossamshalaby358 i gave up on Pokémon Go because there are literally no Pokémon near where I live. I heard that Pokémon lets go is good too but I dropped that game because I just couldn’t manage to catch Pokémon there.
Same I have never found a shiny

I found a shiny excadrill once but I crit it and it died
I just recently got a shiny Oshawatt, I wasn’t farming for it, just did a few resets for a good nature and gender and after 9 minutes I got my perfect little dudet.
"What was your first shiny pokemon?"
I think it was a noibat
It was a random encounter while grinding and now hes a noivern and my favorite on my team
LUCKYY shiny noibat is sooo pretty. I love that minty green. Shiny Noivern isn't to my tastes though sadly, but still, wowe
My first shiny pokemon was in post game of pokemon Y. I was in the friend safari and I saw a miss colored pansear. I wasn't sure if it was shiny or not. I caught the thing and it was.
Mine was a peliper 💀
Mine was a square shiny kangaskhan (sword) while trying to complete my pokedex
Prettyyy sure my first ever shiny was a Staravia through a random encounter on my way to the fourth gym of pokemon pearl
I can’t believe he blew the opportunity to name the Durant “Kevin”
I would have gone with snake
or size 15
Did that with a hundo i have in Pokemon Go hahahaha
I... don't get it...
@@SCOTLAND_ISGREAT Kevin Durant is a basketball player
Ironically, my first shiny matches up with this video, lol.
Got a random full odds Sandile in Black.
Mine was a full odds tranquil. I released it because I thought it was a glitch or a virus. 😂😅

There’s a few ways I can take the “first shiny” first one hatched was a charmander, first one used was a beedrill given to me, and the first one I caught was Joltik
My first shiny in general was actually my first Pokémon which was charmander and I didn’t realize until a month later how rare he was because there are no other starter Pokémon in the game and i never reset
My first shiny was a absol in the hoehn remakes and that Guy knows recoil moves
My first wild shiny was a zubat. In Sun. Can you imagine my disappointment 😐
First shiny was an oras heatran
@@stephensolomon1453 what game was it
My first shiny was a Haunter in Pokémon Y. I was trying to get all the Vivillion forms and someone on the gts was trading a scatterbug for a beartic so I was looking for one in the ice cave when I found the shiny haunter. I caught her and named her Sickle and now she’s in Pokémon Shield with me 🥰
Nice an interesting story to get your first shiny
Agree
Damn, too bad gengar's shiny is basically dog water
My first shiny was HootHoot in Soul Silver
@@nariyt3997 the term dogwater is bad.
I’m amazed that it took until Ghetsis for such reckless play to catch up with you in any way… faded a 90% Take Down on badge 1, got crucial Focus Blast and Stone Edge misses, Mienshao could’ve killed araneo with Fake Out… a million things could have (arguably should have) gone wrong way before that.
That said, this is still an impressive accomplishment with a great final team. Kudos!
my very first shiny was a sentret in Heartgold. I kid you not, i encountered that shiny sentret on my 4-5th encounter of the game. I was playing with a friend at the time (he was playing Soulsilver next to me) and we were both going crazy xD
Fun Fact: Also within that game, one of my pokemons got a pokerus like 2h into the game. My friend and i had no idea what a pokerus was back then, so i just kept playing normally until all my party pokemon recovered from the pokerus. So unfortunately, i couldn't spread the pokerus to all the pokemons i would later use. Still, my Typhlosion ended up being pretty OP in the end
That Heartgold cartridge must've been blessed by god or smth xD
if i only i had friends who love pokemon no one in my school likes it and all these comments about ppl with their friends playing pokémon it makes me think (wow how come there’s barely any ppl in ohio who like pokemon) the only i know who like pokemon are my brother and younger cousin but my brother has work and my cousin doesn’t even play the games he just likes the anime so i’m just like man these ppl lucky they friends like this ( idk y i wrote a whole essay i bet no one cares)
joke or not thats just sad bro
@@ramenronnie2144 only in ohio
my first shiny was riolu in xy in that 1st city and i just never used him for some reason lol
I’m so surprised you lasted that long without losing a Pokémon this was a great video
Well, the Gyarados at the Lake of Rage was technically my first shiny every when I was playing Heartgold.
The first one I truly encounter a shiny was when I was grinding on Victory Road in Heartgold, I ended up encountering a shiny female Donphan. Funny thing was not long after I caught a shiny male Donphan.
I also found my first shiny in HeartGold but I found a shiny male sandshrew and similar to you I found a opposite gender shiny sandshrew
My first shiny was in Soul Silver. Those 2 games must of had a high appearance rate.
My first actual shiny was a Patrat in Black, kinda lame but the blue eyes were cool.
My first shiny was a bellsprout in soul silver, but I ended up failing it cause my game crashed. Then my next shiny, you guessed it, bellsprout again in Pokémon gold. I caught this one lol
My last shiny was a bellsprout in lets go eevee after using a flippin lure
Also nice
@@Protectbaddrag same
@@Protectbaddrag I’ve gotten other shiny bellsprouts. It’s my most common shiny, I’m pretty sure I have one in every game it’s available
My first shiny was a ratata in fire red which I never used
i got my first shiny in sun… it was a ratata n i was mad asab, but then i started goin try hard on the masuda and my first one i got breeding was a shiny pichu
Lilipup, first playthrough… was essentially a “god damn finally!” Since i started playing back in firered/leafgreen
My first shiny story was actually pretty sick. I always loved heartgold and thats all I would play. At one point I figured out you could get kyogre, groudon amd rayquaza in it but at the time I only had a dsi and only heartgold. After a few years I got to know this guy at school who was a huge fan of old nintendo consoles and funny enough he had 1 single pokemon game and that was soul silver so he gave it and a second ds to me so I could trade myself the groudon to get rayquaza. Once I traded it over I was like "well if I‘m gonna get rayquaza I might aswell put the effort in to get it shiny cause its literally my favourite shiny". So like every person I was preparing for like hours of just sitting there soft resetting a couple thousand times but no.. after like 4 softresets I actually got it which was sooo lucky
This was me at 8, but with Soul Silver. I prob have hella hours in that game
My first shiny was a really good full odd female ralts in my legit copy of platinum so I was super excited cause gardeviour is one of my fav psychics and it’s got an amazing shiny, anyway long story short it used teleport without me even throwing a pokeball :/ I haven’t picked up that game since :(
I’m sorry to hear that. :(

My first shiny was a sableye in pokemon emerald! I was probably 7 and was in victory road when I realized that I had encountered a weird orange sableye. I had no idea what shinies were but miraculously, I managed to have enough foresight to catch it and to this day, I have it! It's so special to me
First shiny was weedle in the sevii islands in fire red. Not counting the obvious red gyrados we recieved in g/s/c. I loved that thing, so I always hunted one during the era of mega evolutions ❤️
The reason why I love this so much is bc my first ever shiny was a gurrdurr in Pokémon Black. It holds a lot of memories
In my Pokémon white ; I found a shiny absol in the post game area . I can’t remember what route it was on exactly .
My first random full odds shiny was a Timbur in pokemon black.
My first shiny I ever caught was actually the first pokemon I ever caught. Shiny Shinx. I had no idea what Pokemon was, or what shiniest were, but I thought it looked cool so I caught it. I miss you a lot, Scruffy. My second and only other shiny was in February. I was playing HeartGold on my DS Lite while I was recovering from having my wisdom teeth pulled, and without realizing until I was heading back from Mr. Pokemons house, the guy who gives you the Togepi egg, that my Cyndaquil was a shiny. It was a weird experience.
Is no one going to talk about how my boy shiny hunted for a Golett just to never use it. Now that must be painful.
28:54 it's a backup
@@mattjackson1330 yeah I know, it just must be really painful to never end up using it.
@@downrightdilophosaurus4769 yeah considering it takes hours to find it's probably annoying to not use it
@@mattjackson1330 yeah I would not have the patience to do something that big all for nothing.
It's actually pretty common to ditch a mon for a badgequest.
In Pokemon X, I watched a tutorial on how to fish for shinies so I did just that in Shalour City with the Old Rod and I fished up a shiny Luvdisc. That inspired me to hunt for shinies (via fishing and Masuda Method). My luck was on a streak until Sun and Moon (where my luck ran out).
When my brother and I first started playing (HGSS on DS), the first shinies we ever saw were bellsprout and Drowzee, which are both white-ish, so we thought that they were actually albino Pokémon. But the first shiny I ever caught was a shiny Ho-oh which was the third Ho-oh I caught while trying to get a full team of 6 ho-ohs. I had done a bunch of random movements below the ladder that leads to the top of the tower before heading up. And since then, I was dead-set on recreating those movements thinking it would give me another shiny Ho-oh
Isnt drowzee pink and bellsprout yellow?
Too long I'm not reading all of that lmao
This didn’t happen.
Bacon : has rollout
Zwiggo: I’m going to pretend I Didn’t see that
other than the free red gyarados, my first found shiny was an Unown V in original Pokemon Silver.
fun fact but because shinys are determened by ivs and unknowns letters are determined by ivs some letters are actually more likely to be shiny than others just thought that was fun
I remember in Black 2 I ran into a shiny Shinx near the starting area. Good thing I had pokeballs and luckily caught it. Never expected it.
Can't find wild Shinx in Black 2 🤣
I decided to play Black 2 after a very long time, my brother owned it but let me reset and play it since he never finished. I was at the farm area (don’t remember it’s name) and I was searching for a Riolu, I found one and was heading to the exit. Before all this happened I told my brother I wouldn’t hunt for shinies since I didn’t know how to transfer them to a newer game.
Lo and behold
I found a shiny Mareep. (And I almost defeated it on accident by a critical from my Riolu lol)
My first shiny is in Black 2 too hahaha I guess game freak decided to be generous on that game xD
You cappin you can’t find a shinx in black 2
Shinx is a trade pokemon in bw2.
My first shiny was actually a Tepig in Pokémon Black which was amazing for me
I had first discovered shiny hunting back in 2011 and wanted to try it for my own shiny. I started on route 1 in Pokemon Black to be safe and not even 10 encounters later I find a shiny Patrat. I screamed when I saw it and successfully caught it. I felt amazing.
after playing through every gen (yes I feel old) my first (legit) shiny (meaning no guaranteed, events, or well cheating it in) was in gen 8 sword with a wild golurk, unfortunately I had to sell my switch during covid and I am now about to buy another one so I am happy to be able to see my golurk again
Love how when you use Focus Blast it misses 100% of the time. But when an NPC uses it it has 100% accuracy first try.
My first shiny was a caterpie, I forgot it was on that safe file and deleted it :(
F
?
Damn🙁
I also deleted my save file with a shiny geodude in emerald :')
The exact same thing happened to me but just with a golbat
I really have to admire your dedication to your craft. This must have taken months to do and I'm really quite amazed that you were willing to put up with this game's brutal RNG for so long.
The first shiny I can remember catching, outside of the Red Gyarados in GSC/HGSS, was a shiny Pelipper on Hoenn's Route 128. What's funny is I had released a Pelipper right before surfing onto that route, so I thought that it was shiny because I had released it, and so I caught it again thinking it wanted to come back.
My first legit shiny on cartridge was a full odds zubat in Ultra Sun. At first I was a little sad because Zubat is such a generic pokemon, but Crobat is a beast and I don’t mind the pink color.
Pokémon sword, Applin who I found on the isle of armor after shaking a berry tree. Named him Grampy Smith and evolved him into an Appltun.
You give it max soup?
Not yet but I’m working on it
Fair, but I can’t help but love the way appletun waddles over to you when you call him in the camp
hey my first shiny was applin as well and i didnt realize it was shiny until around 1 week later i just thought there were different forms
awesome name !!!
I played Pokémon for about 7 or 8 years when i was younger. Never ever saw a single shiny. One day i saw an episode of the Anime where Jessie of Team Rocket battles with a Yanmega. I thought it was a really awesome bug Pokémon so i went to the Safari Zone (this was in Pokémon Platinum) to catch a Yanma. The very first encounter was a baby pink Wooper.
My first shiny was a HUGE shiny Paras, I found it at the cave after Brock gym
Same but I didn’t have a poke ball to catch my first shiny so I had to kill it :(
Mount moon
same but I killed it :(
same bro but i lost the save file
You mean mt. Moon?
My first ever shiny was a Shinx in Pokémon Platinum.
At the time I had a friend who had loads of hacked shinies and as a person who hadn’t heard of the concept of shiny Pokémon at the time, I was convinced you couldn’t get them without hacking the game. So you can imagine my surprise when I was running around in Platinum one day for the lolz and happened to see a golden shinx in the grass. I caught him and for some reason my sister convinced me to trade him away to her.
Many years later, I did get him back in Pokémon X. He’s a Luxray now and I’m never giving him up now
My first shiny pokemon was a ralts (female) in pokemon emerald which evolved into a shiny gardevoir

These are my favorite games and I’ve put well over 2,000 hours in this game, I’ve found one shiny, a shiny Timburr that ended up having an adamant nature and was a boss on my team
I like that you make videos that would take hours shorten it for us and releases it weekly for us to watch in just a week
Appreciate the hard work buddy 😊
I’ve been playing Pokémon since I was 7 years old and I just recently caught my first shiny playing SWSH last year. It was a Riolu! I even already had one in the front of my party but just encountered it because they are a bit rare in the overworld and only come out during a certain weather pattern.
Pokemon black was the first mainstream pokemon game i ever played when i was 11. My starter was Tepig, and was also called "Bacon". coming up im getting a new copy of black as i lost my original as a kid, and will be playing throughout the game with an egg Tepig i gave my brother dated 2012 as my main starter. I've come to this resolution of while I wish younger me had taken better care of his games and the pokemon he had, I have to move on and create new teams with mostly new pokemon, and one familiar face. Thank you for that memory jog of that name. Me and "MM" the tepig will be on are way soon enough.
First shiny was a Spearow. If I was actually paying attention, my first shiny would have been a Zubat that I accidentally ran away from while I was grinding for the Elite 4.
mine was also a spearow lol
I ran away from a Zubat in mt.moon in FireRed. I was young and didn't know what it was lol. Kicked my self years later
