How rare is shiny witch hat Pichu?
Just curious...I hatched one of these today, and the IV's aren't great, but it's a shiny event pokemon. Are shiny Pichus even that rare? I've hatched two out of 38 total Pichus, and more than half of those 38 were probably hatched before shiny Pichu was even released.

I've never spent a single penny of real money on the game. I get my 50 gym coins every day (100 prior to the gym rework), and I generally only use the purchased incubators for 10K eggs (except for 7K eggs during the event when they contained regional exclusives).
I've hatched a grand total of 1,783 eggs since the beginning of the game, and the two Pichus are my only shiny hatches.
I have 2k hatches and never hatched a shiny. I have slowed down hatching due to not spending any more on the game. I am waiting for some new content other than shiny or new gen pokemon. I also haven't found any shiny pokemon other than community day. I play everyday and click on every pokemon with no luck.
I'm a bit surprised that you haven't found any shinies other than Community Days, with all the special events and newly released shinies. I have to assume that you are playing a lot less than me (which isn't necessarily a bad thing). I've caught probably 20 shinies in the wild outside of CD's, and not including shiny raid bosses.
I'm surprised that I haven't encountered any shiny Duskulls or Shuppets during this Halloween event, because I have been catching every one of those that I see, in order to farm candies for the rare candy field research.
