My biggest fail when catching a shiny had to be back in Platinum. I was just doing the usual XP grinding, getting my team to level 60 level 70 when I encountered a shiny wild Staravia. It was my first time ever seeing a shiny in the wild, so I of course tried everything I could to catch it. I put that sucker to sleep, paralyzed it, and threw every single ball I had before it struggled itself to death. And ever since then I have not seen any shiny out in the wild, I did get a shiny torchic out of an egg though so
