Shiny female Combee - A Shiny Hunters Challenge

Recreation of a pencil drawing I once did.  thewhitescatterbug.deviantart.…

Hunting a shiny female Combee is pretty much the epitome of what it means to be a shiny hunter.
Not only do you need to find a shiny but you better pray to Arceus that it's female to get that glorious shiny Vespiquen.
After 44579 encounters I got myelf one back in Heartgold. Without knowing I might have become a legend by finding the most rare shiny ever.

Because I searched it with using a Cute Charm Pokemon in front which atttracts Pokemon of the opposite gender.
But back then I didn't know that the 4 Gen games had the so called "Cute Charm Bug", which basically results in Pokemon attracted by Cute Charm not being able to be shiny.
And Cute Charm works 2/3 times, so the chance of even encountering a Pokemon that could be shiny goes down by 67%.
And let's not forget, if you manage to get a shiny, you still need a female one and the chance for that is 1/8.

Simply put, the chance of finding a shiny female Combee in the Gen 4 games with a male Cute Charm lead is 1/8192 (normal shiny chance) /3 (Cute Charm doesn't activate) /8 (getting a female) = *1/196608*.
And I managed to do that. I honestly can't believe that. I think there is no video of someone doing that on YouTube and I actually recorded me finding it, so I might upload a video soon.
