It's Random. a 1/1800 something chance.
That is all.
That is all.
I have three of them.
It's very hard to get them. I got them in my Diamond game, but not for the Emerald game. It's about skill, etc. Don't really know how to explain it.
My friend bought Pearl and when Riley gave him the Riolu egg, my friend got a shiny Riolu. First run through of the game. If I don't think that's random, then I don't know.

Both explain how to chain for shiny Pokemon, aka increase your chances of finding one. Otherwise it's just down to luck. Lots of luck.

The problem is that chaining only exists in 4th Generation. As far as Emerald goes, it is entirely up to chance.

This results in a probability of 8 in 65536; simplified as 1/8192 (2-13, or approximately 0.012207%)

The calculation is based off of your trainer ID in relation to the personality value of the Pokemon you are encountering.
