3rd Gen Shiney Appearance rate

The rareness of a shiny is really low ( you'd have to be lucky) but getting a female starter is hard too so if u get one of them then you should be proud in my opinion.
 
Can we just all agree that getting shinys are hard and getting shiny starters are even harder?...etc?
 
I suppose I mean the chances of a starter seems just like the encountar of one so I guess I agree with you. ^_^

I tried Kyogre 1000 times and no shiny
The chance is 1 out of 1,000,000.

Note: if you keep restarting your game the chances are re rolled (restarting not saving and trning of GBA)

Note: Its just like rolling a dice you can keep rolling it but never land on a six,
 
My cousin, and I am serious, has a shiney torchic he didnt use cheats or not. 'Casue I was right there with hi mwhen he started to help him out. And when he chsoe his pokemon it sparkled and he was like "what does that mean?" and I looekd at him and was like "Dude...you got a shiney starter." and I told hi mhow rare that was.. so yea. I am jealous.
 
no, you guys are all wrong..stop guessing.
i really forgot, but i tried atleast.
65** somewhere around that. its the number in your game, when two numbers match you get a shiny.
 
Wow u people r genius (compliment) I never thought it waz that way! So it is sorta like the highest id is 99999 (maybe to many #) so the chance is 1 outa 9999? *confused*
 
Wow I guess people r born lucky $ (I feel smart for once) J/k but then again I heard 2 #'s r drawn or something lik that and if the pokemon's matches your number u drew then it's shiny. But which one is correct???
