Well, I guess there isn’t really an answer to that. My opinion is that the people who made the actual Pokémon game wanted to add another purpose or quest for us to catch ‘em all. Shiny Pokémon are unique, rare, and vivid, who wouldn’t want that? It is just another way for us to strive for achievement. That IS what we are made for, right?

Sincerely,

Well, nobody but Game Freak knows answer to this one. Maybe they just wanted to add somethinguniqueto the game, or maybe it all started when they wanteddifferent coloredGyarados in G/S/C. Seriously, there are some things that onlyGame Freak, but only they can answer. There is also previously asked similarquestion.
