When a Shiny Zorua/Zoroark tranforms, will it remain Shiny?

Question

What happen when a shiny zorua/zoroark transforn into other poke. Will it will be still shiny. Example its illusion is in hoopa will it become shiny hoopa? Sorry for bad english

Answer 1

No, it wouldn't.
Since illusion copies the last conscious Pokemon in party, so if the last Pokemon isn't shiny, zorua/zoroark won't be shiny.

though i saw in videos that in black and white you can encounter zoroark disguised as a shiny. a really possible low rate,but it can happen. like with it disguised as a shiny raikou+ zoroark illusion when you have suicune in your party. that did hurt to see. either catching it or defeating it.
