* As Generation II does not allow two Pokémon to breed if they have the same Defense IVs, two Shiny Pokémon can never breed in Generation II.

Additionally, in Generation I, if a wild Pokémon {{m|transform}}s again while already transformed, when caught it will be a {{p|Ditto}} with the same DVs as the first Pokémon it transformed into, allowing Ditto's DVs to be [[List of glitches in Generation I#Ditto DV manipulation|manipulated]] so that it is Shiny in Generation II by having it initially transform into a Pokémon with Shiny DVs.

In Generations {{gen|I}} and {{gen|II}}, it is possible to use {{DL|Transform glitches|Shiny Ditto glitch|a glitch}} to catch a Shiny {{p|Ditto}}. If a wild Pokémon uses {{m|Transform}} twice (that is, transforms again while already transformed), when caught it will be a Ditto with the same DVs as the penultimate Pokémon it transformed into. This can be used to copy the DVs of a Shiny Pokémon owned by the player.
