my very first shiny that i found was in pokemon black and white. i was in a large place with patchy grass everywhere and on the 56th time i ran into a wild pokemon it was a rattata and it sparkled a bit, but i didnt no what shinies where at the time so i kept the rattata there until pokemon bank and pokemon transporter came out. when the to apps came out i transfered all my pokemon from pokemon silver, black, white, white2, and black 2 to my copy of pokemon y, i then knew what shinies were. when i looked at all my pokemon that i transfered i ran into the rattata and discovered that the pokemon was a shiny pokemon!!
