1 2 3 4 5
I was just casually searching for a Dusclops for my dex on route 8 and kept running into hippowdons. I didn't even realize I'd totally run fron a shiny until I saw a tan, green, and then a grey one
But they're so easy to get in USUM that I really don't care

Cant remember if it was ruby or sapphire, but the poochyena that you fight immediately after grabbing your starter was shiney once.
I cried inside because this was before you were able to recieve/buy pokeballs.

found a shiny Duosion while grinding in White but I forgot how double battles worked so my Victini ended up knocking it out. I managed to reclaim it while grinding on the same route. And on my first trip on Poni Island in Sun I found a shiny Granbull but it roared me away. still haven't reclaimed that one but I hope, someday, I will.

The only shiny I've encountered in the wild so far in my life was a Graveler, all the way back in Silver. Unfortunately, little young me didn't understand that it was a shiny and thus special and rare, and I ran away from it without a second thought as if it were any other wild Pokemon. Thankfully that's the only shiny I did that with and now I know better lol.

So, I was playing Pokémon white. Just started a new game. The professor speech begins, and she summons her Pokémon. I don't remember what pokémon it was.

But it was a shiny. And there was no way to catch it.

Had a similar experience when I played pokémon fire red. The game just downright teased me when a trainer-owned shiny Jolteon showed up. Obviously I couldn't catch that one either. It was just such a big bucket of why.

in Sword it says i have 1 shiny found on the back of my league card, and that means at some point i just wasnt paying attention and either ran away from it or killed it

The first one isn’t too bad.. I got lucky in finding this shiny without trying.. the only thing is.. it was delibird

In Pokemon pearl I was strolling through the grass and happened to find a shiny graveler. It used self destruct. Rip

If I'm lucky, Mr. Talent will rub his tentacles on my art
