Do you all even understand the concept of a "Shiny" anything?
These are the actual odds in current Pokemon games, and they used to be twice as bad:
In the main Pokémon games, the base chance of encountering a shiny Pokémon is 1 in 4096
The shiny are there for nothing else but as a cosmetic, they don't offer ANYTHING gameplay-wise. At least adepts have access to a suite of mods that are useless 90% of the time.
This game has too many issues, bugs, problems. Fixing the drop-rate for a cosmetic item is NOT a priority. Tone down your damn entitlement.

Edit: Just to make the point I went out and got myself a new shiny pokemon (it was an Oddish), it took less than an hour. Second edit: Just to further make my point and show that the Oddish wasn't a fluke I went got myself a shiny Ralts, it took like maybe 3 hours, probably closer to 2.
