I just found out about the game today and it's great so far! When I picked my starter, Gastly appeared to be a shiny and it turns out she was! super cool!! Idk if they're always shiny, but if not that's my first ever shiny starter in a Pokemon game or fan game

I am like 99% sure that the Ghastly isn't always shiny. I know Abra isn't, and it would make sense for them to be the same, but I haven't tested it.
