It took me 5 tries in SoulSilver.Then there was this one time in Black where I thought I captured a shiny Basculin.But when I checked the Pokedex,it said there were two kinds of Basculin.(Like the Shellos)I was really mad
I have a shiny butterfree( my cousin met it as a shiny caterpie at the start of his game, I bribed him with a lvl100 arceus to give it to me) and thats the only shiny i have in my black... Havent transferred my shiny gyarados yet though, still breeding spiritomb for shinies. So far 210 spiritomb. All non shiny
I have quite a few but my personal favorite one is my shiny Mightyena I got in Ruby.
But I have more
Three shiny Gyarados
Two Shiny Mightyena
Three shiny Groudon(No AR I swear!)
Two Shiny Kyogre(Again no AR)
A shiny Chatot
A shiny Meditite
A shiny Medicham
A shiny Spirtomb
A shiny Quagsure
A shiny Geodude
A shiny Golem
Two shiny Piplup
A shiny Phione
A shiny Snivy
And a shiny Shellos
Nope,I NEVER had such luck with any of the games...I did manage to SEE a shiny Hoho...but it was too early in the game,where Monster Balls/Poke Balls..weren't given. ack. oh,well.

I had the same problem with a Wurple, I forgot to mention that in my answer to this one. :(
I have a shiny Jolteon, Flareon, Vaporeon, Espeon, Leafeon, Glaceon, and 2 shiny Eevees. I also got all the shiny Beasts from the events (But I s'pose those don't count.), and a shiny Typhlosion. One time I randomly came across a shiny Wurmple. But my brother demanded I give it to him, so I don't have it anymore. I DO have a shiny Machoke, though. I love it when I'm just walking around and I find a shiny Pokemon.... ^^
I dont really care about shinies i breed for natures move sets, abilities when you have to factor all those things in and the fact that a shiny hatching from an egg is less than a 1 in 5 thousand chance its just not worth wasting the time
