Shiny gimmighoul locked behind 5* raids with a shiny chance less then full odds

dotesports.com Shiny Gimmighoul dreams are buried with poor odds in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet raids

As many errors as Gimmighoul has coins.

Data suggest that the odds of shiny gimmighoul are 1/4,103.05 vs the normal 1/4,096 on top of that data miners say the shiny form is locked behind 5* raids. Wtf is this game freak.

I was excited to actually play the game again to hunt for a shiny one, but at those odds I’m just going to go back to Zelda
- It wouldn’t be too bad if you could grind/hunt like a regular mon, but the delay in trying to connect to online raids and playing over the internet makes this practically impossible.

With a 30% 5-star raid chance thats like 600/82061 shiny odds?? 🤦
Edit: too many zeroes
- I'm bad at probability but that sounds like a 0.7% chance? wut.
  
  Well, apparently you're better than me at probability.. 🤣 Its actually 6/82061 odds (I had two extra zeroes...) or 600/82061%

I believe all raids have that shiny odds rate. Not that this makes it better, it's just a clarification.

Just gamefreak being their own dumb selves.
With any hope they'll adjust the event, but I wouldn't hold my breathe.
