Getting a shiny starter in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet is all about patience and persistence! The old-fashioned way is to simply restart your game over and over until you get a shiny starter. When you start a new game and reach the point where you choose your starter Pokémon, if it's not shiny, you'll need to reset and try again. There's no known shortcut or trick here; it's just a grind!

Good luck resetting a million times for a shiny starter, lol. But hey, if you got the patience, go for it! Just remember there's no guarantee, and it might take forever.

Actually got my shiny Sprigatito after about 200 resets. It's totally doable, just gotta be patient and maybe have something to watch or do while you're at it. The feeling when it finally shines is unbeatable!
