From my experience, shinies pop up more often during special events or Community Days. Those are the best times to go shiny hunting!

Honestly, shiny Pokémon rates vary a lot, but expect to grind a bit. Still, nothing beats the thrill of finding one!

For most wild Pokémon, shiny rates are around 1 in 500. So, yeah, they're rare but not impossible!
