I can understand you and while I'm not a breeder I have been unlucky with shinies in this game. The only one I obtained was a Zigzagoon from a random wild encounter.
Gone forever for personal reasons.

Hatching a shiny Pidgey after only 36 eggs (and it was my first succesfull Masuda Method attempt).
Finding a random shiny Magnemite
And getting a shiny Lugia after only 3 days of soft resetting.

So yeah, so far I've been kinda lucky during this game. Shiny Regice also didn't take that much time but more than Lugia.

No luck with Regirock yet though but I'm trying t get the entire set.

I actually haven't run into a shiny in ORAS so far, nor X&Y. I feel like I could run into a wild encounter every two minutes for an entire game sometimes, and never once find a shiny.

Maybe I should try chain fishing when I start up ORAS next time, and see if I can find one that way.

I wasn't exactly hunting for shiny pokemon, but I was in the safari zone looking for light balls (I completely forgot about the DexNav) and I found a Shiny Psyduck. Later on that day, I was fishing for heart scales and I found a shiny Luvdisc

It was probably the luckiest day in my entire life

Around December 2014, after 200 soft resets I captured a shiny Zekrom. I then set my mind to getting one of my favorite shiny legendaries of all time, but it took a while. In July 2015, I finally found my shiny Cresselia after 1130 soft resets. <3

Haven't actually gotten any shinies in ORAS that I know of, haven't done much breeding or REing in the game at all lol. Up until recently when I sold my version of X I had done all of my hunting there.

I think I'll be getting some shinies later on though, currently prepping for Sun & Moon gradually by breeding. yey.

My luckiest was a shiny Shuppet and Meditite on the same day within a couple of hours!
I was actually hunting for a shiny Vulpix, but that thing just does not want to show up!
I ended up really loving the Meditite and as it was male I decided to evolve it. Blue Medicham looks amazing (as well as Mega Medicham)!

I'm going to state both my luckiest and unluckiest shiny encounters.

Since I've never ran into a shiny in my game, I'll mention the ones from Heart Gold.

Luckiest: While playing PKMN Heart Gold I found a shiny Geodude near the beginning of the game. A few routes after that I found another shiny, but I don't remember what that one was.

Unluckiest: I must have had a super high TSV, because I found a Shiny Slowbro while catching PKMN for my Pokedex. What's unlucky about this you may ask? It was in the Safari Zone. I threw a Safari Ball and it didn't even shake once. It ran next turn.
