    I'm gonna talk about my first shiny on my current PoGo account. I started playing one day before the Chansey Community Day which I didn't even know was happening and my first shiny was also my first hatch—it was a Happiny from the Chansey Community Day! I still have her and I love her very much.

    My first Shiny was way back in Pokemon Silver. It was when it was new. I remember getting a Shiny Zubat from Union cave but I also remember a Shiny Hoppip. I know I shiny hunted quite a few Pokemon back in the day.

    Please don't rub it in my face. Chandelure is my 3rd favorite Pokémon and I've always wanted a shiny of it in PoGo. Alas, I started playing the game again in February 2024, so I missed out on the Litwick Community Day. But every single event that featured Litwick, Halloween events, GO Fest 2024, GO Tour Unova, and even just seasons where it regularly spawns, I miserably failed to get a shiny Litwick. And seeing shiny Chandelure in gyms brings out my burning jealousy.
