I keep seeing everyone saying that shiny is easier than albino, but how? Maybe my rank isn't high enough? I'm at Ace I believe, with 1,100 egg chain and level 7 albino radar. 4 shiny 6 albino. I would appreciate some genuine advice on how to up my shiny chances without spending irl money (so nothing that costs zc please!). Is it even reasonable to try for melan without spending money? thanks for the help!
