Get a fishing rod. There are three fishing rods in the game; the Old Rod, the Good Rod, and the Super Rod. You get the Old Rod by talking to a fisherman in the aquarium in Ambrette Town. You get the Good Rod by talking to a fisherman in Coumarine City. You get the Super Rod by talking to a fisherman in a house on Route 16.
Go to the area where you want to fish. This should be an area that is enclosed by walls or rocks. In enclosed areas, you will have a better chance of reeling in a Pokémon when using a fishing rod. This area located in Shalour City is an example of a good place to fish. You can also have a Pokémon with the Suction Cups or Sticky Hold ability in the front of your party, as these abilities increase the chance of you reeling in a Pokémon.
Use your fishing rod, and press A when a "!" or "!!" appears above your character's head. If you do this right, you'll encounter a Pokémon.
Defeat or run away from the Pokémon. Do not catch it, since this will break your chain.
Continue using your fishing rod to reel in more Pokémon. Doing any of the following will break your chain: Not getting a nibble. Reeling in too fast or slow. Moving away from your spot. Turning off the game. Using the Player Search System to battle or trade with other people.
The higher your chain is, the better your chances are of encountering a shiny Pokémon. Eventually, you should encounter one. Catch it, and enjoy your new shiny!
