Guys, the Shiny thing requires a lot of luck. It's not like "beating x number of Pokémon it'll come shiny". The rate at which one can appear is 0,125%. A very lucky bastard can get a full run of Pallet with all Pokémon being Shiny, while someone could run it 1835738972978476986858858 million times and not get a Shiny. It's luck, not math/statistics.
