So, I was in the Friend Safari last night when I caught my first shiny in Y. It was... a Combee!
And not even a female Combee, either. Just a regular drone. It's better than, say, an Illumise... but I wasn't exactly ecstatic over it.
But, barely ten minutes later, what should appear, but another shiny! And this time, it was a Skarmory, which was pretty awesome because Skarmory is pretty awesome.
Unfortunately Skarmory is one of those Pokémon that only gets its best moves through breeding... Also, this one had the hidden ability weak armour, which is annoying.
I wish shininess could be passed down through breeding...
So, what cool shinies have you guys found so far?

I found a shiny Weepinbell and Foongus in horde battles while EV training, and I hatched a shiny Abra (that didn't have Magic Guard, unfortunately), Omanyte, and Hawlucha. I wasn't even breeding for those shinies, and I got the Hawlucha on the fourth egg and the Omanyte on the first one. I don't have the Foongus or Abra anymore, though. I traded them for some 5IV things.
