I spent time in the past few days completing the pokedex for some pokemon in the beginning area.
Bidoof, Ponyta, Starly, Buizel, Shinx, Drifblim ect.
now every time i go in there are around 70 pokemon i could pass in a small 7 min loop.
70/1024 is about 14ish loops. i found a shiny within 30 mins.
could be really good luck or it may be a more optimal shiny hunting method than outbreaks IMO, it just takes time and grind to set up, then again so is doing the same repetitive task is very similar to doing the same repetitive task anyways.
