  • -Get the Shiny Charm, it increases odds of all the below methods -SOS chaining: odds increase as the chain gets higher, reaching max odds at a chain of 40 -Masuda Method: breed pokemon from different countries of origin for a massive increase in odds of hatching a shiny -Swap Breeding: (should be used with masuda method) can guarantee hatching the specific shiny you want, look up a guide on it

  • Luck and lots of patience Your chance of randomly encountering one in the wild is 1/4096 (or 1/1365 with shiny charm) If you breed two pokemon from different countries, you have a 1/683 chance of hatching a shiny (1/512 with shiny charm) If you SOS chain, after chain 70, you have a 1/1024 chance of a shiny enterimg the battle (1/683 with shiny charm). However, the chain resets to 0 after #255.

  • The swap breed method is done by having a magicarp on your team and the pokemon you want a shiny of, then you have a Ditto in the daycare that is from another country. You save before you put anything in the daycare then breed magicarp with ditto until you get an egg with shiny magicarp, then soft reset the game and put the other pokemon in the daycare instead, and you'll get the shiny you want in

  • the same amount of eggs as you got the shiny magicarp. That's how I got a shiny Komala in three eggs (I also have shiny charm)
