can't get shiny eggs?

[xelam]

hello im utterly confused as to why i can't seem to get any shiny eggs. 

 

i have 7 boxes FULL of hatched non-shiny Gible and starting an 8th (216 in total). seeing that the odds are 1/93.333 i am starting to lose hope so i was wondering if maybe the passwords im using are part of the problem or not? 

 

here are the passwords im using just in case: battlebond, earlyincu, easyhms, flatevs, freestarter, fullivs, hardcap, leveloffset, moneybags, noevcaps, nopartnerai, pinata, speedskip, unrealtime, weathermod

 

i highlighted the ones that i think could be a problem although im no professional. 

 

also please do not judge me for using that many passwords im just bad at this game and simply want to enjoy the story (and fulfill my shiny team dream) lol

Have you activated the shinycharm password? With that, iirc the longest it took me to breed a shiny pokemon was like 1 box full

it really is just rng

even with the shiny charm, i can sometimes get up to 4 boxes of normal popplio eggs, for example
