What was your first wild, non Story related, Shiny Pokémon?

Nadjie_ · July 2023

My first shiny encounter was an Electrike in Pokemon Sapphire. At the time, my cousins (3) and I all shared one copy of pokemon Sapphire. We did not understand what shiny Pokemon were at the time, but we knew we had to catch it! It was blue! It took way too made pokeballs, but finally we caught it. We agreed to let my youngest cousin raise it. :)

I caught a full-odds shiny Shinx in Scarlet, just wandering around near the area where you fight Klawf. It was level ten, so I just hit it with a regular Pokéball and it was mine. I also caught a shiny Heracross, accidentally killed a shiny Hawlucha, and caught a shiny Cetoddle. All within like, a week, and it was full-odds.

My first shiny, I was on a road trip and was riding on my charizard (post game so I was in the sky) and I thought I saw something strange below me so I got off my charizard and saw a shiny jigglypuff!! I caught it and named it Cheese. I evolved it into a Wigglytuff and it is still with me!

I also caught a GMAX shiny eevee (when you couldn't make it a GMAX), a shiny slurpuff, and a shiny espeon in raid dens in my Pokemon Sword game.

I have a box full of shinies in Arceus, but they were kind of too easy to find in that game

The highlights of that were my shiny Hisuian Goodra named Sam, my shiny Hisuian Samurott, and my shiny hisuian Braviary named Pablo

I don't have the best memory so don't remember which ones I found in gen 1(checking for perfect stats) but in gen 2 I found a shiny Zubat and was pretty ecstatic when I found out there's a third evolution now.
