Getting shiny Pokemon are easy!

You say you want a Pichu? Well, I’ll tell you, theMasuda Methodis the thing you want!

The Masuda Method is simple - when you breed two Pokemon from different countries, the chance of getting a shiny Pokemon increases five times! About a 1/1638 (as opposed to the normal 1/8192) :D

A good way to do this is to look for a Ditto on the GTS from another country - when you find one, breed your Ditto with any Pokemon (that isn’t onthis list) and there is an increased chance of finding a shiny! It’s still a 1/1,000 chance of getting one, but at least it’s better than 1/8000. xD

Hope I helped. :)Source: Experience and Bulbapedia Masuda Method page

Either Poke radar or a 1/8192 chance

Good luck!Hope this helps!
