what about database stories?

Sorry, I know you're new and enthusiastic but meta isn't a general purpose discussion forum. The other people posting things like this https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/meta/42870/ got special permission from the mods to do it.

Look at the date of that post. We generally don’t enforce rules on older posts. Additionally, any discussion threads are approved by staff

how do I get stuff approved?

You can ask us on our wall, but generally we say discussion topics like this one should go to the chat room (or our Discord server https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/meta/68341/pokebase-discord-server-official-thread which is more active, if you're too young to use Discord then sorry)

Answer 1

my first shiny was in scarlet/violet, before I completed the game it was hawlucha and it was 20 levels higher than the rest of my team, you see I first sent out gimmighoul, I had no idea what gimmighoul was, it was just a cool mon and I said to myself in the form of yelling "Holy crap!". Of coarse, as usual it high jump-kicked itself to death, so it wasn't caught. My first caught shiny was a tera dark shiny talonflame, of coarse I didn't know it was shiny cause of all the sparkles but after I caught it I traded It for a shiny latias. then I caught a shiny dodou and named it kiwi (green bird fruit!)
