Celebi

Well, I'm playing "Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time", and I was wondering something. Is it possible for Pokemon to be shiny in this game?

I'm asking because I've just been introduced (in the game) to the Pokemon Celebi. Normally (in every Pokedex I've seen and the Pokemon movie) Celebi is GREEN. But when I saw Celebi in the game I'm playing, she (Celebi has a gender in the game) was PINK.

So since Celebi's PINK instead of GREEN, does that mean she's shiny?

If she is shiny, isn't that supposed to be super duper rare for a Pokemon to be shiny?

 

Well I think it's possible, since there was a purple Keckleon in the original Mystery Dungeon.

 

Well I know in the GameBoy Pokemon games (Gold, Silver, Crystal, etc.) it was possible for them to be strangely colored, and that did mean that they were very rare. The same would probably be true for Mystery Dungeon.

 

In the Gold & Silver series, if you use a gameshark, Celebi is indeed reddish/ pink.

 

Yeah, it was shiny. I've seen it on youtube.
I think that's the only shiny you can find in the game though.
