Good ways to Shiny Breed?
I’m looking for a shiny Eevee, so I can evolve to Umbreon.Do your chances of getting a shiny increase by breeding normally or do you have to do something special?I’ve heard of the Masuda Method but I was wondering if normal breeding works too, eg. Ditto and Eevee.If there are also other ways to shiny breed, please let me know.Thanks :D

Well you get more chances since you will hatch more eggs but it doesnt boost your chance of getting one, using the shiny charm helps alot.
The Masuda method (Japanese: 国際結婚 international marriage), also known as Masuda’s method, is a fan-made term which describes a way to obtain Shiny Pokémon more easily from Generation IV onwards. While the standard encounter rate for a Shiny Pokémon (either in the wild or by breeding) is 1/8192, the Masuda method multiplies this rate by 5 (to 5/8192 or about 1/1638) in Generation IV and by 6 (to 3/4096 or about 1/1365) in Generation V. It occurs whenever Pokémon of differing real-world geographical origin are bred.
These are you chances with madsuda methodbutwith shiny charm you have even a better chance, trust me its worth to “catch em all”. I can even help you with that :D
