Hahaha, that's crazy!

  • The rate of a shiny encounter is 1 in 8192.
  • The rate of an encounter with a Pokemon with Pokerus is 3 in 65,536.

It would be a .0000457763672% x 0.000122070312% chance so if my calculations are correct:

The chance of an encounter with a shiny Pokemon with Pokerus would be a:
0.00000000558793543% chance. Or 1/178956971.

wooooow , hahaha thats sick :P
I know someone on this online game called Pk Indigo, and he found a Gloom with both in his SS.
Wow, that's kinda lucky.
WOW......LOL:D
It would be easier just to infect a shiny pokemon with pokerus. Though I've been playing pokemon since it came out in the US and I've only ever seen 1 shiny pokemon.
..........
ive seen 5 shiny pokemon but none of them ever had pokerus
