Can I get a 2nd chance at a shiny Registeel in Pokémon Shield?

Question

So long story short, I accidentally ran from my first and only genuine shiny encounter, being Registeel in the Crown Tundra DLC. It took around 230-260 encounters using the “run away” shiny hunting method. If I close the software on my Nintendo Switch, will I be able to find a shiny Registeel again? And will it be at the same amount of encounters? Or should I just continue with my progress and hope to find another?

Did you save after running away from the shiny?

Answer 1

No it may not be same amount of encounters and reseting your game to the point where you last saved will not give you a 2nd chance to catch it. Unfortunately, you should just have hope that you will find another..
Hope I helped
