Encounters with shiny Pokemon that made you really mad.

List all the awful ways you found a shiny but couldn't catch it. I'll start

I was fishing in Pokemon HG. When I reeled in I found a shiny magickarp I had one great all and it failed. I decided to rage and play Pokemon white.

I was training a Mienshao in Pokemon White. I found a shiny Altaria, but it was in a double battle. I took care of the extra Pokemon and took away a fourth of Altarias health. While deciding what to do next, I had a strong feeling that I was going to get a critical hit. Like an idiot, I ignored that feeling. I attacked Altaria once more and had my other Pokemon hit Altaria.
Guess what happened next.
Yep, critical hit.
Almost threw my 3DS at the wall after that.

I'm not weird, you're just too normal!

Wow that sucks, luckily it has not happened to me yet

I'm no hero, the real heros won't be comming home.

Of course it sucks. If it hadn't happened don't post. -.-

I had a shiny Palkia that would not let me play online battles with it in my party.

You will always encounter a shiny Gyarados in HeartGold at Rage Lake anyway, lol. I don't think they're so highly coveted anymore.

I have encountered one shiny in my life. It was a Nincada on Emerald, and I managed to catch it, unsurprisingly.

I caught a shiny Pikachu and then I forgot to save the game:( Stupid blonde moment.

It's because a shiny Palkia is hacked and hacked pokemon can not be used in online battles. It can detect hacks

It gonna never happens to me ,I've got 800 Master Balls :P

Israel's not a legitimate state.

Cheater. -.-

In emerald, I came across a shiny slugma, it was ten levels higher the my mudkip, but water gun got a super effective critical, and that was that in one hit. should've switched pokemon

I love how the internet is its own fantasy adventure novel. Person A seeks guidance and the Trolls devour him.

Catching that shiny Psyduck at the Safari Zone in Silver, it fled from battle. Made me a depressed little boy, indeed.

Rap is like scissors, it always loses to rock

I found a shiny wailmer, but since I only catch magikarp, I took it out using tackle. Then my magikarp leveled up and evolved (forgot to cancel). I had to release it after that. it was my favorite, too. T.T

Stupid shiny.

i caught ten shiny pokemon (really i did) then my dsi cut off and i didnt save :/

more spam

A shiny Onyx, but it rejected my pokeball and ran away. *sadfacesadface*
