Next, you can either try your luck(since shinies have a 1/8192 chance of appearing)or use thePokeRadarand chain Hoothoot/Noctowl to increase the chance of getting a shiny to 1/200!
You can also use theMasuda Methodand breed two Pokemon from foreign countries to increase the chance of getting a shiny fivefold, up to about 1/1638.
And, you can always hack to get a shiny. But what’s the fun in that?
Hereis a guide to chaining (it is the same in D/P as in Plat).
You have a 1 in 8192 chance of finding a Shiny Pokémon in the wild in Pokémon Platinum.
The Poké Radar is the best way to get a Shiny Pokémon in Platinum as the chance of finding a Shiny Pokémon increases the longer your chain is. This chance maxes out at chain number 40, in which the chance of finding a Shiny Pokémon is 1 in 200, a substantial increase from the usual 1 in 8192.

The Masuda Method is another alternative method to getting a Shiny Pokémon in Platinum as it multiplies the chances of getting a Shiny Pokémon by 5 but even this requires a lot of time and patience. The Masuda Method involves breeding a Pokémon from your game cartridge with a Ditto from a foreign game cartridge. The egg that you receive from the Day Care Man has a 5 in 8192 chance of being Shiny or about a 1 in 1638 chance of being Shiny.
