Catching shiny Pokémon in Scarlet is just like finding a needle in a haystack, but way cooler. First off, patience is key—shiny Pokémon are super rare, with a base rate of about 1 in 4096 encounters! But don't lose hope; you can boost your chances. Use the 'Masuda Method' by breeding two Pokémon from different language games. It greatly increases shiny odds. Don't forget to obtain the Shiny Charm for completing your Pokédex, which also bumps up those shiny rates. Lastly, participate in Tera Raid battles; they sometimes offer higher shiny rates for Pokémon.

Honestly, just trade for them. With how rare shinies are, it's often easier to find someone willing to trade their shiny Pokémon. Saves you the headache.
