First Shiny Pokemon?

[Gorrilaz]

The red Gyrados at Lake Rage (northern most lake in johto) on HeartGold Version. I ALMOST caught a shiny magneton in the HeartGold Safari Zone, but it ran away

I have never had a shiny Pokemon before

 

[Veroni94]

My first shiny was a shiny ditto. Best day ever when I caught it.

My first shiny pokemon was a shiny Bellsprout I once encountered in Crystal. It was the only shiny I ever encountered (aside from the Red Gyarados at the Lake of Rage).

 

[Pinhead101]

first shinys were
1) the shiny raikou
2) the shiny entai
3) the shiny suicune
4) the shiny pichu

Are they all event Pokemon? I know the first 3 are.

I've never run into a shiny pokemon ( that I know of due to lack of knowledge when I was younger) but my friend traded me a shiny Lugia he said was legit Later on I got a shiny Ponyta.

I first found a shiny electrike in sapphire but I traded it to my friend without knowing what it was...
then i hatched a shiny ralts when breeding for a male ralts for a gallade in diamond
then when i played heart gold I found a shiny drowsy, tentacool, and koffing in the same playthrough (and the red gyardos but that doesnt count :p )

One single random as heck caterpie.....I swear it was so cool. Me in the grass outside Mr. Pokemons house and then BOOM wild shiny caterpie.

The first I ever receive, excluding events, was a shiny Zubat from my cousin's old LeafGreen game. The first one I caught myself was a shiny Lillipup in White. I audibly squeaked when I encountered it.

 

[Octo Rocked]

I had a shiny Magby hatch from the daycare egg in my Crystal game. Then I restarted the game because I didn't know about shinies >.<

Although the next time I legitimately found a shiny, I ended up somehow finding two in the same day (Pidgey and Tentacruel).

 

[Nanalie]

Not counting the Red Gyrados my first shiny was a krabby.

 

[IndigoRose]

I've been playing Pokemon for 8 years and I've never had one!

 

[DekuMan414]

A Trapinch in Emerald, shiny Flygon FTW

 

[solvera273]

Aside from the red gyrados in gold and silver my first shiny pokemon was Rayquaza in Emerald, it was awesome!!!

 

[Night Owl]

In pearl I caught a shiny ponyta for my younger brother.
My second shiny I've encountered was a shiny stantler in HG. I encountered him in the safari zone but alas He fled
This is aside from the red gyarados and event pokemon.
