<blockquote>Hi, it's NETT. I analyzed the SHADOW POKéMON LIST again and discovered six more. The additions are HERACROSS, PORYGON2, WHISCASH, XATU, WOBBUFFET, and WAILMER.

===Cut | ===Cut dialog=== | ||
There is one line of dialog cut from the game in the game's internal data. It was most likely a reference to a battle with a trainer called ''SHADOW GRASS POKéMON KING'' who beyond having their trainer class name in the game does not have any other data attached to them. | There is one line of dialog cut from the game in the game's internal data.

For the sake of consistency and to prevent game crashes if they are hacked into the game, every Pokémon has a [[Shiny Pokémon|shiny variant]]. However, as {{p|Celebi}} was distributed only through the [[Pokémon Colosseum Bonus Disc#Japanese Bonus Disc|Japanese Pokémon Colosseum bonus disc]] and locked to never be shiny, it is impossible to legitimately obtain a shiny Celebi. | For the sake of consistency and to prevent game crashes if they are hacked into the game, every Pokémon has a [[Shiny Pokémon|shiny variant]].

The e-Reader room is present within international versions of the game but has been made impossible to enter without cheating. Translations had made siginficant progress before being scrapped, likely due to the poor sales of the e-Reader device outside of Japan. The letter in e-Reader uses a different font style not used anywhere else in the game or game data.<ref>[http://www.gc-forever.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=2024 Pokémon Colosseum leftovers]</ref> | The e-Reader room is present within international versions of the game but has been made impossible to enter without cheating.

===US | ===US bonus disc game compatibility=== | ||
The internal data for the US bonus disc shows compatibility for Pokémon Firered, Leafgreen, and Emerald but have been disabled by default. Compatibility with those games is impossible without modifying the ID values on the US bonus disc. | The internal data for the US bonus disc shows compatibility for Pokémon Firered, Leafgreen, and Emerald but have been disabled by default.
