The Masuda Method. Find a regular Swinub and breed it with a foreign language pokemon, and your chances drop from 1/8200 to 1/1300, and with the right items, you can control its nature and one of its IVs, which is always helpful. I've actually hatched a shiny pokemon using this method, and it takes forever and is really boring. Make sure you have a pokemon with flame body to make the eggs hatch more quickly.

Luckily for you, some pokemon hatch more quickly than others (Dratini takes forever, for example), and I bet Swinub is one of the faster ones.

What would be the setup for getting high attack IV and an Adamant nature?


Finding a Japanese (can be anything except English, but Japanese is far and away the most common) pokemon that can breed with a Swinub that has adamant will be easier than finding a Japanese pokemon that can breed wtih a Swinub that has a 31 attack IV, so find a Japanese father with adamant and give it an everstone. Then find an English female Swinub with 31 attack IV and give it a power bracelet, and then?

Breeding.
