What's the encounter rate towards Shinies again? I get Poo's Sword in Earthbound almost every run and I can't even encounter a Shiny in the wild. I have the worst luck.

In gen 6 onward (without chain fishing mechanics or shiny charm) I believe it is 1 in 4000?

I'm in your boat in terms of having never found a true, non-chained shiny (i.e. one that just appeared out of the blue)

The only shinies I've gotten are a Dragalge from chain-fishing for one, and a shiny Psyduck when I was hoard-battling for EVs in gen 6.

You should inevitably come across a few of them if you play long enough, especially with gen 6 onwards where the chances were doubled.
You've got people getting shinies in speedruns and being forced to run away from them

One of my favorite speedrun moments is when Werster encounters the Wally shiny. Id link it but I cant really do that with videos at work

I for one am baffled that this is even possible with a scripted battle like this

Did it remain shiny throughout the remainder of his run? Like every time he fought wally, would it still be shiny?
