Answer 1

Chances are 4:8192. 5 - 6 tries probably means nothing. You just have to try

Answer 2

Well depending how you think about it your chances technically increase the more eggs you hatch (ie hatch 5000 eggs straight with no shiny you're something around 73% likely to get one on your next egg thanks to permutations & probabilities) but ya the best way is just to hatch as many as possible. Good luck

Answer 3

The odds will always remain the same no matter how hard you try, I believe the odds of getting a shiny pokemon are somthing like 1 in 8,500 (just the estimate, I can't remember the exact number) but don't give up! Shiny Pokemon are amazing, I love my Shiny Metagross <3

The odds are 1/8192 for regular shinies. The Masuda method is 4/8192 like DD said.

Answer 4

well dont give up. i filled 23 pc boxes with failure. have a pokemon with flame body first in your party (eggs will hatch faster) and wait.
