If you mean a shiny Spoink, than yes I found one,but I evolved her. Infact she was my first 3rd generation shiny. But,if your looking for any kind of Spoink try Jagged Pass.

The first time...I caught a shiny Oddish on my Ruby version, but I accidentally erased that one. The second time, I caught a shiny Persian on my LeafGreen version, which I still have. My newest shiny is a Cascoon which I caught merely a day and a half after I bought my Emerald Version. Not long after, I evolved it into a shiny Dustox.

Besides the shiny gyrados, I had a shiny miltank on silver.
On ruby, I had a shiny zigzagoon/linoone, and a shiny lanturn. They all got erased though... ;_;

Apart from the Red Gyarados, I've first encountered a shiny Hoot-Hoot when I was playing Pokemon Silver a few years ago

....No way >.> You must have been playing that for ever. I ran away from my first shine, (which was a delibird) cause I had no pokeballs and I didn't know what a shiny pokemon was then. My second was a shiny wingull...Then a spoink.

((Edit: which is odd because someone was looking for one...o_o))

My only one (so far) was the red gyrados. I know, I know... That shouldn't count.

I just got back into the Pokemon game (just got Emerald and will get FireRed soon), and I hope to catch some more shinies. I'm hoping for a shiny ditto. Those things look awesome.

My first shiny was a Shiny Onix in Crystal. I found him in cave right next to the door to get out. I caught him and named him Miracle. <3
I never caught the Gyarados...I killed it with my Typhlosion. xD
Next I got my Shiny Grimer. Omg. I LOVE that Grimer. He is now a big, green, Muk on level 40-something.

My first shiny ever was a shiny Psyduck I found in Four Island, surfing to get in the Icefall Cave or whatever it's called. It was and is my first and only shiny ever.

But then, I don't care about shiny Pokes/I am not interested in them, so...

I didn't catch it, but the only shiny I found was a Shiny Stantler in the Battle Tower in Emerald. I couldn't catch it (not that I was able to anyway) so I just took it out.

FYI, you cannot run away from a "shiny" Pokemon. As in, if you choose "Run" in the battle screen, you cannot escape from it. I tried, a lot, back when I used to GameShark for Pokemon (only) like Mew or a shiny Lv2 Lugia to raise up in GSC days. So, anyone who says they "ran away" from a shiny Pokemon isn't remembering their story correctly. ;-)

My first shiny/ing Pokemon was that danged red Gyarados in my Japanese Silver and later English Gold. After that, it was a golden Monjara (Tangela) in Japanese Silver at...Mt. Silver. I don't think I saw/caught another shiny in the Gen II games legitimately after that, but I sharked a few choice ones (like Lugia, whose shiny form looked a LOT better then).

Gen III effectively made us all start over again in terms of catching Pokemon, so my first and only shiny these days is an Oddish which was caught in FireRed, and which I have since evolved into a lovely purple Bellossom. :-D
