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)

Huh, I never knew about putting a shiny in the first slot, but I'll try it. The only methods I know are pure chance, chaining, and breeding foreign pokemon from different countries.

My only shiny is N my Galvantula. I caught a regular Joltik and was about to name him N when something told me that I shouldn't. The next battle was a shiny Joltik and that's how I caught N. my bro Axl caight a shiny Wailmer and evolved it into a Wailord. It's purple while N was greenish yellow and purple when he was a Joltik and is now a golden yellow and navy blue.

BTW aren't shiny eevee the prize for first place in the official pokemon tournaments?
