I sure hope you will get one soon! Bugs me that the intro of this game is quite long compared to the other games though :( You need to talk to your friends, pick a nickname, choose your starter, walk away and battle with one of your friends to know if it's shiny or not... (like in R/S/E you could save just before you choose your starter and battle right away, was a quite fast way of knowing if you have a shiny or not. And I liked the mechanism in HG/SS as well that you could see if the starter was shiny when picking your pokemon when the image pops up which Pokemon is in which Pokeball). :\
But I had to reset for 3 hrs to get my female Fennekin, but a shiny takes alot more effort. You have done such a great job, would be sad to give up all your effort and patience! :o I'll cheer you on to get one soon! ;)
