The only difference between a shiny and non-shiny Pokemon is color. A shiny Pokemon is a different color than it usually would be and when you encounter one, at the beginning of the battle stars sparkle around it. There are no difference in the stats, but shiny Pokemon are more rare than regular ones. The chances of finding a shiny Pokemon is 1/8,192. Also, when you catch one there is a red star on its stats page and the pokedex number shows up in red.
There is no way of telling if a Pokemon in an egg is shiny until it hatches. Sorry.
The same way you would catch a normal Pokemon. The only difference is is that the Pokemon is shiny.
It takes luck to come across a shiny, but when you find one you catch it like you would catch a regular Pokemon.
What do you mean how do you make a shiny Pokemon stay shiny if you get a shiny Pokemon it stays shiny ok!
