A wild Shiny pokemon appears and it's going to use recoil damaging moves

i would probably start off with a Quick ball.

If failed, start paralyze/sleep followed by a DoT move (if available) and keep throwing ultra balls at it while it kills itself with recoil damage.

Quick Ball seems wisest, but Shinies are just one of those things that you can't control. If you get it, great, if not, oh well.

Yes you can. :p

You can learn how to mess around with the RNG to get good Pokémons, including, shinies. It's not an hack, and the Pokémons you get are legit because they are part of the code in the game.

You can find pretty good tuturials about the RNG abuse on Smogon.

(smogon seems to be down so i can't provide you a link form there, but search for "Pokémon RNG Abuse" and you surely find something. I don't know much about that, but it seem easiest to do on Pokémon Emerald)

Might be nice to do, as Shiny anything can be bartered for some of the event Pokemon or legendaries from the other games.

It's still impossible to get Groudon, Deoxys, Kyougre, or Rayquaza without having R/S/E, huh?
