I got to a 40 chain on Shinx, and I found my adorable lil guy after like 2 minutes. But, do the chances of a shiny patch reset? I would like to get some shiny shinx I can give to people

That being said, unlike in DPPt, the odds of finding a shiny seem to reset once you find one

It doesn't reset the shiny chances in Generation 4.

Yes, since catching or fainting the wild Pokémon continues the chain, you can continue to hunt for shinies at the same odds of when you caught the shiny.
