    How can I do this?

    You can quickly find some excellent Pokémon by encountering as many Brilliant Pokémon as you can. As you catch or defeat more and more Pokémon of the same species, you'll gradually become more likely to find Brilliant Pokémon and Shiny Pokémon of that species in the future.

    Number of battles = Effects on future encounters

    At least one = Brilliant Pokémon may
    appear

    At least 20 = Brilliant Pokémon have
    1.3× the likelihood of appearing

    At least 50 = Brilliant Pokémon have 1.6× the likelihood of appearing, and Shiny Pokémon have 2× the likelihood of appearing

    At least 100 = Brilliant Pokémon have 2× the likelihood of appearing, and Shiny Pokémon have 3× the likelihood of appearing

    At least 200 = Shiny Pokémon have 4× the likelihood of appearing

    At least 300 =Shiny Pokémon have 5× the likelihood of appearing

    At least 500 =Shiny Pokémon have 6× the likelihood of appearing

    Once you've encountered a species of Pokémon 100 times, you'll max out your chance of finding a Brilliant Pokémon of that same species at double the original odds. The odds of finding a Shiny Pokémon of that species won't max out until a whopping 500 encounters, where you'll have six times the normal odds.
     
    If fishing
    The number of times you've battled any one species won't matter at all for fishing. Instead, you'll need to defeat many Pokémon consecutively, no matter which species appears.

    Successful hooks = Effects on future encounters

    0–2 = Brilliant Pokémon may appear

    3–6 = Brilliant Pokémon have 1.3× the likelihood of appearing

    7–14 = Brilliant Pokémon have 3.3× the likelihood of appearing

    15–24 = Brilliant Pokémon have 6.6× the likelihood of appearing

    25+ = Brilliant Pokémon have 16.6× the likelihood of appearing

    If you keep getting bites and defeating your catches, you'll start to find more and more Brilliant Pokémon. But beware—if you fail to reel a Pokémon in, or if you catch a Pokémon, run away from a Pokémon, leave the area, or turn off your game, then the chain will break. After 25 successful hooks, you'll cap out at over 16 times the initial odds of finding a Brilliant Pokémon.
     
    Bruh did you just copy-pasta the Bulbapedia page for Brilliant Pokemon?

    Anyways, you might be interested in the Generation 8 Project for Essentials v19.1 which currently includes Brilliant Pokemon, as well as the "Number Battled" method of generating them. Chain Fishing for Brilliant Pokemon will be added in the next update of the project so keep an eye out for that.
