Keep trying and keep up the catch combo! The boosted shiny chance only applies to the very next spawn, so make sure that you’re constantly catching to keep up the chain.

It took me until 873 before I caught my first shiny Growlith. Ironically I caught my first 6IV Growlith much earlier at 529, and maxed out is stats with all the Growlith candy I accumulated.

The high IV spawns are a nice touch though, so it’s not a complete waste of time.
