If I soft-reset HGSS until I find a shiny starter, would my odds be 3/8192 per reset?

Like, since there’s three of them, and you see them all at once, so per encounter since there’s 3 and the odds are 8192.

I’ve calculated and recalculated these values in particular, so here they are:The chance of finding a shiny starter is A + B + C, where A is the chance of one Pokemon being shiny, B is the chance of two starters being shiny, and C is the chance of all three starters being shiny.The chances of B and C happening are almost negligible, but for the sake of accuracy (and lowering the estimated amount of time), I will incorporate these values. (for the records, the chance of finding one shiny Pokemon is 1/8192.

For example..

After your 4,096th reset, you’re more likely than not to have found a starter by this point.After 7,373 resets, there’s a 90% chance that you’ll have found a shiny starter.Just 800 more, and you have a 99% chance..you’re basically guaranteed to find one by this point.
