    The Odd Egg you get at the Daycare has a 50% chance of being an alternate colour Pokémon, if I recall correctly, so for so many to have not seen one other than the red Gyarados is surprising.
    The odds are 50% in the Japanese version, but 12.5% in the English version.

  • Really rare for a shiny to appear in the Jhoto games.

    I got EXTREMELY lucky when the egg that the day care man gives you the first time you talk to him hatched into a shiny Igglybuff for me. :D

    I found a shiny drowsee in the wild once. I thought my screen was glitched (again) so I took it to the repairs...

    So you can save before you get the egg, and restart every time it hatches and isn't shiny?

    You can also use the cloning glitch to get loads of eggs, then hatch 5 at a time. Instead of saving in front of the PC, save before you get the egg; after doing the glitch, you'll have an egg in your PC, and you can collect another one.

    I got 2 shiny Cleffas and a shiny Igglybuff this way, before I mucked it up. I also got a shiny Smoochum, but messed up when trying to clone it and accidentally deleted it.

  • To get a shiny youve gotta be very lucky- like 1/8200- In all my 10 years of playing, ive only ever found one shiny- a Pelliper whilst searching for feebas XD
    I do have like 13 shinies though, through trades.

    In Crystal I never found any shiny pokemon. Actually at the time I only thought there was red gyrados.

    The Pokèmon will be Shiny but the possibility that this happens it is 1 on 8192.
    In Pokèmon Oro, Silver and Crystal it is easier to get a Pokèmon Shiny during the breeding in how much the pup gets 3 DVs from his/her/their parent therefore there is 1 possibility on 64 that the small one both Shiny. Besides, the Pokèmons Shiny in Gold, Silver and Crystal possess the tallest statistics in how much they possess some raised DVs.
    I am italian sorry,
