Why can't I get any shinies with the masuada method ( shiny egg method)?

Question

I keep trying to get some shiny Pokémon. I stink at the Pokémon Radar the fishing method just is not working and so I turned to this but now I can't figure it out. I am putting two Pokémon from different nationalities but It is not working. Is there something I am doing wrong?

Answer 1

You aren't guarenteed to get a shiny.
There's just a chance to get a shiny. It's still very high, and is most likely over 1/1000 (the current chance is still unknown).

You aren't doing anything wrong. It just takes love, patience, and a Pokemon with Flame Body/Magma Armor.
