Shinies, how many do YOU have? Options

[Dusk]

How many shiny Pokemon have you collected or seen?

Approximately five minutes ago I caught a shiny Wurmple (depressing really...). A couple years ago I found a shiny Ryhorn in the Safari Zone, but being the b**** that it was, it ran away like a pansy. A couple years ago as well my cousin ran across a shiny Zubat, but a year later we deleted it because our Ruby and Sapphire games were infested with cheats, and we were over the god-like power of the AR.

So, same question.

(You have a 1/8192 chance of finding a shiny every battle, so we don't have to argue about this later)

Why would I want to find a crappy Pokemon?
I know some people who save infront of legendaries and keep resetting until it's shiny. Not that's hardcore.

I've heard someone doing that too... UGh I have enough problems getting my legendaries alive (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif) *always accidentally killing them due suprising and wrongly timed criticals* Oh and my point wasn't getting crappy shiny, it should work with better areas too but when you fight againts lower leveled pokemons you have to visit pokemon center less meaning you get to spend more time trying to find shineys. That was my point. And hey, better finding crappy shiny than no shiny at all since crappy ones can always be trained to be better...
