Shiny Pokémon
Almost every Pokémon species has an available shiny version on PokéHeroes. This excludes Retro Pokémon from Gen I, the Harvest Sprites and very few legendaries.
Every Event Pokémon on PokéHeroes has a shiny version, too.
Random Shinies
The chance of hatching a random Shiny from an egg is very low and currently secret. This probability is also not static, since it changes from user to user, from day to day, and is also based on other factors.
The item Shiny Charm strongly increases your chance of hatching a random Shiny. You receive this key item after filling your third Badge set.
Shiny Hunt
You can start a shiny hunt and chain a species of Pokemon after purchasing the item Pokéradar from the Item Shop
A detailed explanation about shiny hunting can be found on the Pokeradar-article.
Route 53
The chance of finding a shiny Pokémon at the honeytree on Route 53, using Honey, is very high.
You don't have to catch the Pokémon to see if it's shiny or not, since these special colored Pokémon have their own Artwork on Route 53.
