Hatching a Shiny Pokemon can be pretty frustrating. Since you're using the Masuda Method, the odds of hatching a Shiny Pokemon are about 1 in 1,300. This doesn't mean, however, that if you hatch 1,300 eggs that you'll get a Shiny Pokemon. Sometimes it takes 2,000 or even 3,000 eggs to hatch a Shiny Pokemon, while other times it might takes only a few hundred attempts. It's all about chance and luck when it comes to hatching eggs, even when using the Masuda Method.

A little advice from this gamer: don't give up; be persistent. You'll get an egg that hatches into a Shiny Pokemon. It just might take a little time.

If you'd like, you can always try to trade for the Pokemon you'd like. There are many Pokemon Gamers on this site that could be able to help you. If you click Here and create a New Topic, someone might be able to trade you the Pokemon you're looking for.

Hope this helps!
