I want to bellieevve

[Qui]

1223 eggs.
I've never tried this hard to hatch a shiny before. 
In fact I've never actually tried hatching a shiny before!
Then again, I've never wanted a shiny starter so badly like litten's.
Litten was supposed to be the start of my shiny finding adventures but after a few days after getting a foreign ditto and the shiny charm, I haven't hatched one yet. 

Am I just that unlucky or does this usually tend to take a while? I've read articles where people hatch their shiny around an average of 400+ eggs yet here I am in the thousands. 

​​Does the Matsuda method really work or am I just a sssuupppeer unlucky?

All I have to show for my shiny hunt are boxes or 5iv/6iv littens. ;-;

@Qui I hatched two Shiny Litten respectively when I tried breeding for a 6IV Litten. And I don't have Shiny Charm. I guess pure luck?

Just unlucky
The first shiny I hatched was a Bulbasaur after 1358 eggs.
So you just gotta belieeeeeeve

I hatched a shiny Popplio this morning with only 17 eggs! This made my day!

@xhinnn 
Wow. Can I borrow a bit of that luck?
@evan68544
You too Evan? I'm at 1400 eggs now with still no luck. This is so frustrating. 

@Vinnie 
I'm still trying to believe but this is soo frustrating. ;-;

@naitre 
Oh gosh I dunno if my patience would allow me to hatch close to 3000 oh gosh

I've hatched a shiny mudkip after 1k eggs before, with shiny charm and masuda going on.

I've also hatched back to back shiny amaura. It's all in the odds, friend. But hey... that just means the odds favor you to get 3 shinies faster than normal now. Like if you flip 3 tails, the odds of you getting heads increase.
