My first shiny in Sun and Moon was a Bounsweet that I accidentally found while EV training. Since then, I've found quite a few more shinies, in this order: Cutiefly (SOS Chain) Pichu (SOS Chain) Rockruff (Masuda Method) Riolu (SOS Chain) Pikipek (SOS Chain) Mareanie (SOS Chain) Rockruff (SOS Chain) Pyukumuku (SOS Chain) Dewpider (SOS Chain) Salandit (SOS Chain) Vulpix (SOS Chain) Eevee (SOS Chain) Mimikyu (Masuda Method) Magnemite (SOS Chain) Cubone (SOS Chain)
When I started Sun, my friend gave me a shiny Rockruff because I had fallen in love with the rock puppy at first sight. Being friends with a generous shiny hunter is great.
My first shiny was a Torkoal, found it while SOS chaining them for EV training. I didn't have the shiny charm at that point and it showed up only after 2 SOS calls.
Mine was a Wishiwashi that was most likkely hacked. Lv1000, Perfect IVs, and Pokerus. I'm not really complaining given how hard breeding can be, and since it helped with Dexing.
I don't know if this counts or not...oh well! I was doing a bit of GTS and I suddenly got this feeling that if I decided to GTS Rayquaza, I would be pleasantly surprised. Being the random urge-follower I am, I decided to check, and what do I find but a definitely-hacked Shiny Rayquaza? And available for a Aquaranid (Sorry for butchered spelling)! Too bad I hadn't even finished Melemele island...OH WAIT that random Aquaranid I got from Wonder Trade's still in my box! I traded it out, ruining my entire plan for Akala island's Fire trial in the process...who cares, Imma gotz a SHINY RAYQUAZA!! I did not use her ONCE. I also got a Shiny Tapu Koko through Wonder Trade w/OC of DamsManager. Hacked...oh and I got 2 consecutive Shinies through WT, a Marienie (can't spell) and a Kabuto. Wonder Trade is good to me. I haven't actually caught one by myself...in THIS game. Yet. #MissingNo
My first shiny in Pokémon Sun was actually a random shiny Granbull grinding levels on Poni island in the post game.
I believe my first Shiny wild encounter was a Spinarak that I named Cyanider (Cuz it's Cyan, a spider, and Poison type ) My first Masuda Hatch was my Competitive Mimikyu!!!
An Eevee! I've always wanted to have one as my first shiny, so with enough patience with SOS Chaining, I did!
i mentioned this in another thread but my first shiny in sun and moon...was also the first shiny i had EVER encountered in any gen (not counting scripted red gyrados) i was just doing my thing breeding my mons for a new team and i wasnt even paying much attention but as i was releasing the batch of unneeded mons i saw a red star on oen of my bulbasaurs. i had hatched a shiny bulbasaur. i immedietly cnacled the release and put it in my box...not 2 days later as i was lvling up that bulbasaur after EV training it i encountered a shiny Granbul outside of the battle tree. so i both HACHED and CAUGHT my first shinies within a week's time.
Mine was a mareep I bred as a breeding project. It wasn't what I was going for but it was still nice.
Mine was a female Midnight Lycanroc. Found her via random encounter when I was leveling up my team in preparation for challenging the elite 4. Needless to say I was quite surprised when the blue doggo appeared on my screen. Caught her a named her Sanic.
My first shiny in Sun was Tentacool I found using Island scan. In fact, I think that was the only shiny I got in Sun apart from an event Tapu Koko.
I've yet to get a shiny in Sun...not through lack of trying of course. Maybe I'm just unlucky. But my first shiny was a Gulpin. And at that point I didn't have any ideas what a shiny was!
My first shiny was a shiny rockruff through the sos method. It took me three weeks of pure shiny hunting to get it, but I felt so accomplished when I was the cute blue rockruff.
Encountered and caught a shiny Meowth during a Nuzlocke Run (somehow almost every shiny I've encountered and caught were during Nuzlocke Runs...) Shiny Meowth is still alive and has been evolved into a Persian
