[@chrispoe27]

You mentioned something about a “god cartridge” and for the first 15 years of me playing Pokémon I only obtained 7 shiny Pokémon, and 6 of them came from a sapphire cartridge that someone left at my friends house. Every time I started a new game I found one randomly before I beat it. I’ve actually thought about pulling it back out to play it through again.

[@loulou3676]

Idk about Sapphire, but in Emerald the RNG is broken so it always starts from the exact same frame every time you restart the game. So if you were lucky and had a shiny frame just a few minutes in, then every single time you hit that frame you'd get a shiny. If you were unlucky and your first shiny frame wasn't until a few hours in, you'd have to let the game run for a few hours every time before you'd ever have a chance of getting a shiny

[@jarnei8017]

Explains why i had 2 shiny oddish, shiny magikarp and a shiny trapinch in Sapphire. Only 1 per restarted game tho

Little story, I downloaded a Pokemon Crystal rom to play on my phone. I was going through the game as normal no nuzlocke or anything. I got to Ecruteak city and released the dogs. I head west towards the next route after beating the 4th gym and run into Entei right away. And what happens? That thing was f'ing shiny. I was excited but then my heart went into my throat, I had no way to catch it, I could chuck a pokeball at it but it would just run away since I had no way to prevent it from fleeing and it would not be shiny again. I had less than 5 pokeballs on me (no ultra, no great, just pokeballs). I threw the pokeball hoping for a miracle and what do ya know? I actually caught it. I was so excited, it is by far the craziest thing that has ever happened to me in a pokemon game. I really don't know what those odds are, but thats 1/8192 for the shiny, and about 1/130 to capture.
