Obtainability
Land
Potentially appearing in over 50 areas and being of tier-1 rarity in all of them—the one outlier where it is one peg up in tier-2 rarity—Rattata is widely considered the most ubiquitous land-oriented spawn in the game.
NPCs
Upon defeating the Youngster Joey boss, he will reward you a guaranteedly shiny Rattata; this is one of the few-known sources of a 100%-rate shiny in the game and it is a compulsory boss battle for advancing to Hoenn, thereby proliferating Rattata as one of the most widely owned shiny-counterpart Pokémon in the game. Since Youngster Joey disappears permanently upon defeating him, this is strictly a one-off reward.
Rattata is also one out of many assignable Pokémon in Kanto's iteration of the Daily Challenges system; by virtue of that, this is one of the guaranteedly shiny Pokémon that may be potentially rewarded for every 50-divisible task.
