(To anyone saying something along the lines of: Do it yourself, I can't. I have googled guides, and also, I don't have an RNG reporter that is compatible with my laptop.)

Can someone explain shiny frames to me? It's a very foreign subject to me and I'm sorry if I don't make much sense...

Is there a specific shiny frame that stays the same for all Pokemon? I heard that there is a time that you have to spend in the game before using sweetscent, then you can find a shiny. It's supposedly different for all games, what is mine? I have my ID and SID for Emerald right here... ( ID:13447 SID:65294) I haven't found a shiny in the game yet, if that helps somehow. LOL. I just want a shiny Trapinch...!

I love that shiny so much. >_<

Because i doubt anyone knows the anser to this.
I appreciate it, but no thanks. I prefer to find shinies on my own.
Who knows, someone may understand the gibberish i'm speaking.

Shiny Pokémon are extremely rare. The chances of getting a shiny is 1 in 8192. That is 0.0122% of finding one.
Unless you hack the game with a cheating device (but there is no fun out of that is there).

I have never heard of getting a better chance of getting a shiny by using Sweet scent before. Does that even work?

edit:
The shiny rate is the same on all games and all of the ID's. So different ID's won't change the rate of finding a shiny. Even if this was the case (Different ID's helping your chances of finding a shiny), It would probably be a -10% took off the 1 in 8192 chance of finding a shiny.

Hope I have helped xD

P.s. I have only found a shiny once in my lifetime and that was when I was atleast 10. It was a shiny Rosalea :( (Better than nothing I guess)
