Not that rare, just keep tossing those Poke Balls and you'll get one eventually. Patience is key!
Shinies are special, and Shiny Magikarp is no exception! When events come around, your chances might improve, but on a normal day, it's a rare find.
I caught a Shiny Magikarp during a Water Festival event. Outside events, it took me months of regular play to snag one.
