Yes, shiny Pokémon are a different color, and that excites a majority of players, as your chances of getting a shiny are low, depending on the method you're using. It may not make them stronger, but a vast majority love the alternate color patterns. Some people love the sparkle, some people love the excitement of finding something so rare.
Soft resetting is a real thing, and has been proven multiple times, live on YouTube, Twitch, etc. Your chances of getting a shiny while soft resetting is 1/4096. There are some Pokémon that are shiny-locked however and cannot be obtained no matter how many times you soft reset :[ Hence why you didn't encounter the shiny Kyogre.
Players would hack the game regardless. Even if shiny pokémon never existed, people would still be hacking in Level 100 Jolly Kangaskhans w/ Fake Out, Sucker Punch, Earthquake, Double-Edge with perfect IV's & EV's.
People will ask for anything on the GTS, mostly legendaries however. They most likely never get what they request for in those sorts of trades.
I hope I helped! Have a good day!
