This is particularly stupid because you could just save, evolve it, see whether it stayed Shiny or not, and if it didn't just turn off the game.

>>29558798
I didn't think about that at the time, anon.

Pokemon from tutorials can be shiny?

>>29558953
apparently so, at least in gen three if not in others

>>29558953
Yep. And the ones in the intro of "welcome to the world of Pokemon." Juniper's Minccino can be shiny.

And this one speed runner guy saw Wally encounter a shiny Ralts. He made a video.

I have a similar story.
