Bourbonnais IL||I consider myself competent. AIM:
In Gold and Silver, I found a shiny Zubat and a shiny Mareep. (Separate files, Mareep/Ampharos was like my MASCOT. Replaced my starter, actually, who apparently had abysmally bad EV's. I have that happen a lot with starters >_>)

I didn't like Ruby and Sapphire too much, dunno why....

And in Diamond and Pearl I caught a shiny Sneasel while trying to find a Snorunt. Using the Pokeradar, I didn't even notice that the rustling grass was 'shiny'

But I was like "ZOMG welcome to my team."

How about you?

3. Becuase, unlike Celebii, I have a life outside of Pokemon.
lawlz

I've found 2. I guess that means I have a bigger life outside of Pokemon than Zook. :D

I found a shiny Shroomish in Emerald. No Poke Balls FTL.

In my Pearl, I decided to go through a new game (NOT restart my file) and have a Turtwig as a starter. Y'know, to see what it was like. Ya... You know where this is going. Too bad I couldn't save... The Turtwig was also Brave, which is a decent nature for a Torterra.

Until wii meet again,

Legit? I have captured 3 shiny Pokémon. I caught a Shiny Tentacool and Shiny Oddish in G/S. In one of my Ruby's I caught a Shiny Tentacruel. I deleted the save file but still have the Tentacruel. I named him Crystal..and I don't know why. I really wish I hadn't.

I also have a code for Emerald that makes any Wild Pokémon I see Shiny. For Whatever reason they are always impish. I dunno why.

I also have a Shiny Charizard and a Shiny Charmander that I am EV training. I got them though a Wi-Fi Pokémon Community on Livejournal..

I found:

-Nidoran in Gold, but I had no Pokeballs
-Zubat, however, I started again so I lost my pink Crobat
-Krabby, I started again
-Gyrados
-Shuppet in Sapphire
-Spheal
-Magikarp outside Sootopolis

Unfortunately, due to tragic circumstances, all of it was gone and thus everything I'd worked for had vanished.;_;

I have yet to touch the game yet, I'll start playing one day, but when you loose so much you sort of give up until your motivation's restored.

Taking Red Gyarados into consideration from the Metal series...

I'd ballpark it around 30-40 shinys.

4 Legit Shinies (3 Red Gyarados, one for each game), and then recently in my Pearl version, I hatched a shiny Misdreavus. Pure win.

The rest of the 30-40 were red gyarados from using the classic clone glitch in the metal series.

Well, I had the Red Gyarados like everyone else (until my Silver cartridge decided to crap on itself and corrupt without warning, I hadn't even done anything to it >.>).

In my Gold I found a shiny Onix, however due to a blasted critical hit it accidentally died whilst I was trying to capture it.

In Sapphire I came across a shiny Swablu, although again with my horrendous luck, it unfortunately also died at the merciless hands of a critical hit. They never happen except when I don't want them. >.>

And... that's it. A whopping 3 shinies... woo. >.> Still none found in Pearl yet.

0 for me. But if you guys count the 1 shiny Snubull my cousin got as one then it's 1.
The shiny snubull turned into a REGULAR Granbull. *sob*

In Firered, I did see one shiny, a Magikarp, but for some reason did not capture it.

In Diamond/Pearl, I've never seen a shiny. My friend did give me his shiny Golem, though. :p

Only one, surprisingly. Even though I have an AR I don't shiny all my pokemon because I find it to be stupid. I found a shiny Starly while EV training for speed and almost killed it because I wasn't paying attention. Stopped myself at the last second and then tossed a Quick Ball at it, which is now my Shiny Staraptor. Perfect nature too, lucky me!

I remember capturing a Brown Raticate, A Green Bulb Tentacruel, A Green Mankey which evolved into a Pink Primape and a Lime Tangela from my Gold version. Why does it seem like that oddly colored Pokemon have very different growth patterns than the usual fare?

I don't know but my Shiny Starly turned out to have 520 attack instead of the norm. What happened?

Keeping board records with Red Koopa.
Back in Gold I got a gold Pidgy, and in Pearl the only shiny I have is a hacked ditto I got from my friend.
And yes, I believe that is the only shiny I've seen in D/P.
But my brother kept turning his DS on and off in attempt to obtain a shiny Uxie.
Didn't work though.

Just one I actualy found myself, 2 others are traded. I got really lucky, my shiny lapras turned out to be calm natured too so I trained that for my current team. The other two I got traded are a Roserade and a Shuckle.
