It is possible to get a shiny starter, but you need plenty of paitence. Everytime a Pokemon appears, including when you pick one, the game picks a number between 0 and 65,536. If the number is 8 or less, it is shiny. If not, it isn’t. So, you keep restarting and picking until you get the shiny. It takes forever, believe me, but if you have the time, then go ahead. You could also use a cheat, but you’d need a device for that.

Yes you can get a shiny starter in Pokemon diamond and pearl.It will probably take a while though so you might be better off trying to breed the shiny.
You can get a shiny starter in every game except for RBY (obviously)
I even shiny hunted piplup. I gave up though after like 500
