How rare is a shiny hidden ability Pokémon?

A shiny Pokémon with a Hidden Ability (HA) is extremely rare, combining the standard low odds of finding a shiny (e.g., 1 in 4096) with the low odds of the Pokémon having its HA (which varies but can be around 1 in 200 in some games), making it a very difficult hunt, often requiring dedicated methods like breeding or specific raid/safari mechanics to even get the HA first. The odds depend heavily on the game and method, but generally, you're looking at chances well under 1 in 10,000, sometimes closer to 1 in 50,000 or less in certain scenarios.

Hidden Ability (HA) Pokémon are generally rare, with base wild encounter odds around 1 in 200, but this improves in certain games and methods like SOS Battles, Friend Safari (1/3 chance), Dream World/Radar (100% chance), Max Raids (better odds in higher tiers), and with rare items like Ability Patches (in Scarlet/Violet). The chance to get one through breeding is around 60% if a parent has the HA, but it's not guaranteed, and requires special methods to get the first parent.

Mewtwo's initial hatred for Mew stems from jealousy and a deep identity crisis, seeing Mew as the perfect, natural original from which it was artificially created, leading it to despise its own cloned existence and view Mew as a symbol of everything it's not, fueled by its traumatic creation and abuse by humans. In the Japanese version of Pokémon: The First Movie, this antagonism is amplified, with Mew attacking Mewtwo, viewing clones as inferior abominations, while Mewtwo fights to prove its own worth.
