Your chances of finding shiny Pokemon are 1/8259 or something. Shiny Pokemon are beautifull colored pokemon..their apperance are different form normal Pokemon but their stats is still the same. If you want shiny Pokemon so bad yould cheat to get them.But most codes are not working or they have side effects so I wouldn't recomend it.But if you want it so bad go for it.

You need to search very hard and patiently. The odds of a wild Pokemon being shiny are about 8192 to 1. I've found that often, you will find a shiny Pokemon by accident. So try not to get your hopes up. Some people who have played this game for years have not found one shiny pokemon.

johnkrill answered:

Shiny Pokemon occur randomly as you play the game and encounter wild pokemon. The thing is, they are so rare, that it takes a VERY long time to find one.

Zelda Fan answered:

They can be found any wheres, where you can find a Pokemon, but they are rare so they are hard to find.

Well, there are a number of ways. The first way is to be patient. If there is a particular Pokemon that you want shiny, find an area where there are a lot of them. Just keep on battling in that area. It may take you a day, a week, or a month, but eventually, you'll find a shiny Pokemon.

The second way applies in situations where you want a shiny Legendary Pokemon, such as Mewtwo, Zapdos, Moltres, and Articuno. I.e., those of which you can see on the feild before battling them. If you want them to be shiny, save in front of them before battling them, and then battle them. If they're shiny, continue to battle. If they aren't, restart your game and try again.
Note: This will take a VERY long time.

The third way is to buy a cheating device, such as an Action Replay or a Gameshark. They aren't that hard to find, as you can buy them at any gaming store such as EB Games.

Hope I helped ^_^.

To get a shiney Pokemon you just have to look for them. Its all luck. If you catch a Pokemon in a masterball then when you send it out there will be sparkles around it. Some Pokemon though you will find them and they will be a special color (Ex. Ratatta= Gray) Unfortunatley all these rare Pokemon are only a level 2.
