Does tipping actually increase the chance of encountering shiny Pokemon?

Question

so i've heard that the more you tip the more chances you have to encounter shiny Pokemon and got curious and wondered if it was actually true

Answer 1

No it's not true.
I've tipped everyone thousands of dollars and I have yet to see a shiny for one thing.

Where did you hear that?

Jwittz and some post in marriland say it got curious :/

it's a rather common rumour. I haven't caught a Shiny yet, either, but still tip everyone just in case.

Common does not mean true :P
Everyone (almost everyone, I'm exaggerating again) thought Aegislash would be Ubers... guess what, he's not :3

Still as Melo said, Tipping is a good thing to do kids!

Aigeslash is cool

I tipped and found a shiny, caught a shiny, traded the shiny for a Japenese growlithe, bred the growlithe, and got a shiny growlithe so...
