Pokémon Best Shiny Method?

[Mini Mario]

I'm trying to get a Shiny Gyrados (would transfer from HG/SS, but Pokebank costs money ) by chain fishing and I caught 2 Shiny Seaking and no luck for Gyrados. Is there a better method? And if there is, can you explain it in detail?

do you mean other than MM?
chain fishing is your best bet, tbh

Kk, thanks

the best shiny method is the masuda method (however you spell it)

I got 2 shiny tympoles in under 5 minutes.

What? I can go through THOUSANDS of Pokemon through MM and never get a shiny.

Really? I guess I was just incredibly lucky then haha.

Yes you are. The quickest I've gotten a shiny from it is around 200 eggs.

I feel as though I should mention that these two shiny pokemon were the first I have legitimately obtained in all of my years of playing pokemon (which has been since pokemon yellow)

With MM I usually get a shiny within one or two boxes of eggs. It's a pain I don't bother with it anymore. Some people get lucky and others have to hatch 100 plus eggs.
