There is no easy way to catch Pokérus, but once you have it if you use the infected Pokémon in a tag battle, the tag partner will catch it also, you can then deposit the Pokémon in the computer where it will keep the Pokérus, slowly infecting the Pokémon it shares the box with. If you use the Macho Brace on a Pokémon with Pokérus then it gains effort points at twice the rate of a normal Pokémon!!

Just thought I'd post here, on Thursday night my Articuno caught Pokérus on Gold (it's about time, I've clocked up 440+ hours of play time), meaning I've now had Pokérus on both Ruby and Gold, but I still haven't encountered a single shiny Pokémon on either and Pokérus is meant to be 3 times as rare as finding a shiny!

cool. I got the Pokérus on my silver on my very first file which I deleted for some reason then my second file I encountered a shinyditto and bred tons of shinies off of it including bulbasaur, charmander, and squirtle.

on Sapphire and Crystal I don't have a shiny or Pokérus but on Ruby I have a shiny and no Pokérus. Now I wish I would get Pokérus on Sapphire so that my Swampert and Blaziken get their stats higher.

you dont have to get Pokérus to get high EVs on your pokémon. Just battle level 2-5 pokémon on the first route you get to. You will still grow slow, and each time your pokémon kills another pokémon, their EV gets higher. So its same. Just more boring. XD
