Shiny Pokemon chances

Ok so I've randomly found tons of shiny Pokemon in my x cart without looking for any on playthroughs. On my oras I've been chaining off and on and nothing still. I'm curious if x and y have a higher chance to find shiny Pokemon than oras do or is this just my horrible luck in oras?

[quote=KaiwatersXD]are you using the friend safari in x and y? if you are theres an increased chance there so that may be why[/quote]

Nope. This is on main game run throughs. I've restarted my game to play through it a few times and used pokebank to box my Pokemon I didn't want to lose. On a few of these play throughs I've found multiple shinies just by chance. Maybe just luck I guess.
