about twenty boxes later i still didn't have a shiny.
Yes, I'm familiar with the masuda method. However, just to put things in perspective - your odds of encountering or breeding a Shiny are approximately 1/8192. The Masuda methord drops this to only 1/1638. In other words as Ehks said - 20 boxes later, no shiny. It's really not worth breeding Shinies unless you have the Shiny Charm, even then that only increases the odds to 1/512, and it's a Key Item (so no transfer to Gen VII). Also, to get the Shiny Charm? You must complete the National Pokédex. That includes all the Legendaries, some of which you can't catch in Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire (so yes, if you want to catch ALL of the Gen IV legendaries, you're also going to need a copy of Diamond or Pearl to catch the other Pokémon your version doesn't come with). The only mercy there is that Event Pokémon like Keldeo, Diancie and (possibly) Mew are not counted.
