No, simply save your game right before you choose which starter pokemon you want.

But be warned you can spend several thousand restarts searching for a shiny starter..

Before you pick your starter in Pokemon Black or White, save your game and soft reset(L, R, Start, Select.) Look at videos on YouTube about it for more information.

Two ways: The first is to start a new game, choose Chikorita as your starter Pokemon, check her profile under the Start Menu, and repeat until you receive a Shiny Chikorita. The other way is to hatch a Shiny Chikorita from an egg at the Day Care. Both ways are going to take a lot of time and effort.
