In {{g|Colosseum}}, there is a roughly 1/8192 chance of a Shadow Pokémon being Shiny.<!--technically it's slightly higher (unless the player's Trainer ID/Secret ID match the NPC's), because PIDs that could be Shiny for that Trainer are re-rolled--> When a Shadow Pokémon is first encountered, it is assigned a random [[personality value]], but the game ensures that the personality value does not cause it to be Shiny for its NPC Trainer (using that Trainer's Trainer ID and Secret ID). When the player catches the Shadow Pokémon, because it retains that same personality value but now has a different Trainer ID and Secret ID, it is possible for the Shadow Pokémon to be Shiny for the player. In subsequent encounters, the Shadow Pokémon retains the same personality value it had in the first encounter (meaning that whether it is Shiny for the player or not cannot change); however, because its NPC Trainer's Trainer ID and Secret ID can differ, it can be Shiny for its NPC Trainer in these subsequent encounters. | In {{g|Colosseum}}, there is a roughly 1/8192 chance of a Shadow Pokémon being Shiny.<!--technically it's slightly higher (unless the player's Trainer ID/Secret ID match the NPC's), because PIDs that could be Shiny for that Trainer are re-rolled--> When a Shadow Pokémon is first encountered, it is assigned a random [[personality value]], but the game ensures that the personality value does not cause it to be Shiny for its NPC Trainer (using that Trainer's Trainer ID and Secret ID).
