A rant on Pokemon Shiny-Locking

With legendary Pokemon. most of the event legendaries are shiny locked. That means even if you try really hard, you will never obtain its shiny form unless you remove the shiny lock through cheating. With event legendaries, it makes sense. But, Generation 5 was the straw that broke the camel's back. A select amount of the legendaries had an extra code to make the shiny chance 0/0. Despite that, the other legendaries excluding event legendaries had obtainable shines.
But, Pokémon X and Y took it in the worst direction: every legendary obtainable in the Kalos region is shiny locked: why? That means no Mewtwo, Legendary Birds, no shiny legendary hunts. To Game Freak, I congratulate you. You've made hunting even more limited.
I hope they remove the shiny lock on legendary Pokémon in ORAS. If they don't listen, get the action replay ready. 
Moral of the story: Shiny locking is annoying and should not be taken to the extremes.
