What is the LOWEST chain you had encountering a shiny?

(Delete/lock if this is too similar a topic to the Pokeradar thread.)

Well, title says all. What is the lowest chain you've had while encountering a shiny Pokemon using the Pokeradar?

Me personally, I had an encounter with a Shiny Staravia in the Trophy Garden during a chain of only 9.

I'm not sure if a 0 chain (no Pokemon) is possible. I assume it is, but it'd be the same chance of finding a random shiny in the wild.

1 ^_^ it was a shiny bidoof >.> i immediately killed it

[Toxinine]

Mine was 12.

[BIG MIKE]

3 shinies, two were killed.

[Mystical Jackal]

3 shinies so far:

-Rhyhorn at Safari Zone in FireRed;

-Voltorb at Power Plant at FireRed;

-Tentacool at Route 119 in Sapphire.

Umm, I should clarify this maybe: this is what number on your chain you had when you got a shiny, and what was the lowest number on your chain you had when you encountered a shiny using the Pokeradar at any given time.
Also, this only applies to D/P/P.

I got my first shiny Snorunt on a chain of just 2. I think i read somewhere that you cannot get a shiny on chain 0 by pokeradar. However if you do then it is by the normal 1/8192 chance and not the pokeradar. It said there was something in the pokeradar programming that makes it so chain 0 cannot get a shiny patch so the lowest from the pokeradar is chain 1. I hope i made sense with trying to explain this...

[Sceptile Master]

Yeah, that makes sense. I didn't know if that was possible or not though.

[^Cutty^]

I've chained many times, so I've encountered a shiny from non-sparkled patch to higher numbers.

[rovert]

patch 3 or 4, don't quite remember, I got a shiny phanpy :3

[Aura Of Twilight]

Somewhere between zero and ten I think. I got a shiny stantler.

[Zoruagible]

It took me encountering over 10 Starly to find a shiny one

[Quilava42]

I tried a chain of Pokemon Platinum and Pearl 3 years back and my chain was around 10.

In Black, I tried doing it to Audino 40 times, and no shiny.

[Charmed]

I think it was 5 or 6. But I was just looking for a Tyrogue on Route 208 when I saw the sparkly grass and I encountered the wild Shiny Meditite. It was well worth it though.

[Drummerdude]

Found a shiny Machop on the 13th chain on Pearl. I was EV training a Rhyperior in Atk and found it.

[voxhack]

i jsut chained 1 ponyta

[Maware]

I got a Roselia somewhere between 5 and 10 I believe. :3

[Absoltastic]

I got a machop at 1 after two weeks of no luck. It was refreshing.

[PsychicPsycho]

I haven't done a ton of chaining, but I found a shiny Roselia once at number 4, in the trophy garden. Other then that I've not found any shinies while chaining.

[RondezView]

In Black, I tried doing it to Audino 40 times, and no shiny.

How did you chain Audino?

By the way, I have never enountered a shiny by chaining. My highest chain is... 32? I think?
