I would hope you have the shiny charm
max shininess chance at 70
chain auto resets at 256 back to 1

Just got the charm after finally transferring Solgaleo. I'm probably around 30-40 right now.

How can you run out of PP
Fill your Pelago with Leppa berry trees and try again after harvesting them

SOS chaining has been really effective for me so far. Here are the shinies I've gotten so far, and how many Pokemon I KO'd before the shiny appeared:
>Ditto (was actually just trying to get one with four IVs, this showed up just after 30)
>Pichu (165)
>Cubone (around 130)
>Kangaskhan (was going for Cubone, around 80)
>Rockruff (23)
>Crabrawler (65)
>Rufflet (150-ish)
>Eevee (70)
>Carbink (160-ish)
>Meowth (80-ish)
>Poliwag (25)
>Salandit (female, 135)
Next I think I'm going for Gastly, Mimikyu, Riolu and Absol.

I don't have a shiny charm

I have a shiny Deibird and shiny Vulpix from it. The Delibirs took like 500+ encounters and I found the Vulpix on my 4th.

How the fuck do you run out of PP

Build yourself a chain God Smeargle like mine.

>recover
>recycle (holding leppa)
>strong attack of choice
>false swipe

That's great but only for certain ones.
It's usually more efficient to carry a ton of berries plus multiple useful chain Pokemon such as Solgaleo (replaceable with a Klinklang), Decidueye (excellent vs irritating grass Pokemon and stuff like Dewpider), and a synchronizer (usually Alakazam wearing safety goggles). Oh and a Golduck or other weather clearer/inducer.

It was the first shiny I deliberately tried to get instead of on accident. I have Sylveon, Absol and Hypno. Absol did the False Swipe, Sylveon stayed on the field and fought, and Hypno put the Salandit to sleep once she showed up.
I didn't even have the Shiny Charm when I did it.

Yeah, got both shiny Psyduck and Makuhita when I was EV training, they were both under 15 encounters without shiny charm, so it's pretty easy.

Shiny charm is a cakewalk in SM. You need to get 300 mons instead of 700+, and the scaled exp curve means that you will spend more time watching the level bar going up than battling and evolving. You can do it in 3-4 days, or maybe even less if you're lucky

Honestly, SM was my second Pokemon game, and when I went back to see what you previously needed to do to get the Shiny Charm, I was shocked. Catch all of the Pokemon in the national dex in a game that doesn't even have all of them? How were you supposed to do that? It's fucking insane.

Riolu will be a pain in the ass because they have such hard for using final gambit

There are post game ways to access most of the pokemon that weren't in the game first run through. Similar but not quite as shitty as the QR scanner thing in SM
