You mong that's not how it works.
Get real, what were you going to do with the shiny uncomptetive ratata equivalent anyway? Store it in your PC till the heat death?

I always at least get shinies up to their final evos, sometimes I'll even reset one of my other games, move the shiny and a few other lads to that cart and play through with that team.

That's not how it works. Shinies are only generated when a battle is initiated (or when analyzed with the DexNav); using repels only makes the "wait" for your next shiny those battles longer. It does nothing to your chances. You don't "lose" anything.

If you're going to use that logic then every second you're not encountering a wild Pokemon you might be losing out on a shiny, you fucking retard.
