Breeding Shiny Pokémon in Scarlet and Violet isn't much different from previous games, but patience is key! First, make sure you've got a Pokémon with the Flame Body ability to cut down hatching times by half. Then, get yourself a foreign Pokémon to use in breeding – this activates the Masuda Method, significantly increasing the chances of hatching a Shiny Pokémon. Finally, just keep hatching eggs until you see that sparkle!

Best tip for breeding shinies? Masuda Method. Mix a Pokémon from your game with one from a game in another language. Boom, better shiny odds. No guarantees, but it's how I got mine!
