Shinies

[So_So_Man]

Since the last thread is long dead and I recently got another shiny, time for shiny disscussions!
So far I have 2 non-gyarados shinies:
Camerupt
Ponyta


Edit: Should I evolve my Ponyta and add a Rapidash to my team?

[Missingno6]

I don't see why not depending on your current team.

[So_So_Man]

After glancing at what shiny rapidash looks like (black fire? I don't think that works...) I have decided that I will probably evolve it.
Current team is:
Dragonite
Metang (winners path, turning into Metagross)
Munchlax (winners path, turning into snorlax)
Feraligatr
Zapdos
HM Slave

Shiny Rapidash has greyish blue flames. I have one which I caught as a Rapidash in Leafgreen.
My other shinies are:
A Blue Gardevoir which I honestly cheated for by using a shiny code while hatching eggs and is in my main team
A Pink Buneary which somebody here traded to me.
A Yellow Growlithe which I apparently caught in Firered but don't remember.
A faintly lighter-colored Linoone which I caught in Ruby as a Zigzagoon and evolved before cloning.
A Golden Magikarp which my sister recently caught in SS and traded to me.
A Purple Darkrai that was obviously cheated (Master Ball, ridiculous route of origin) off GTS
The event Gyarados and Pichu that everyone has

Three shinies I legitimately caught (all in the Gen3 games), three shinies which I was traded, two common shinies that I got from either ingame or out-of-game events, and one shiny which I cheat-created myself.

I also have some others I received from trade that I didn't list, which were created by some bizarre cheat that I think has something to do with stealing trainers' pokemon then having the stolen pokemon transform into another seemingly-random and shiny species while retaining a nickname of its original species. Like one is a Green Mewtwo named MAGIKARP.

The only shiny I have is a legit Solrock. Which is red instead of orange. Yippee.

I once got a golden pidgey. It was like pidgey but golden. I also saw a golden exeggcute but it ran away twice. Aww.

Uh-oh, Shiny Pidgey...

I have a legit Shiny Zubat and a Shiny Meditite.

[RX-78-2]

I have a shiny Ponyta and one other that I can't think of for some reason. They're both legitimate though and I'm not counting event shinies.

I think I missed out on one in my Pearl while using the PokéRadar (however it's spelled). I thought I saw a sparkle in the grass, so I went over to it, but another battle happened on the way. D:

Well, the only shinies I've ever gotten was Red Gyradose, and a Wurmple. :|

But by god, I'm determined to get a shiny Tsutaja or Pokabu. It WILL HAPPEN! I WILL MAKE IT!

What if they look terrible when shiny?
