Four different rates
Shiny odds
Wild shiny odds are 1/4096 according to the official reference. A wild shiny has visual/edge indicators, and defeating it adds it to the collection as described in the README.
Rift legendaries use 1/512; gacha uses 1/100. Completing a region's Pokédex, including its legendaries, grants that region's Shiny Charm and changes only its banner's shiny chance to 1/50. These rates must not be added together.
The official wording is that almost all species have a shiny form. An older community count of 958/966 is not re-published as a freshly verified total here. Having a shiny form and rolling a shiny are separate conditions.
The source avoids duplicate owned shinies by choosing an unowned shiny of the same rarity when possible. This is not a guarantee of a particular species. Offline hunting and online cloud progress are separate save contexts.
| Wild | 1/4096 |
|---|---|
| Rift legendary | 1/512 |
| Gacha | 1/100 |
| Amuleto Iris | 1/50 in the gacha |
Questions
Is the shiny rate 1/4096 everywhere?
No. That is the wild rate. Rifts, gacha, and the charm are different.
Do I keep a wild shiny if I faint it?
The README says defeating it adds it to your collection.
