Shiny Ditto and Shiny Smeargle transform like before

[GaloL48]

I propose that they go back to how they were before the update when a Shiny Ditto or a Shiny Smeargle used "transform" against a non-shiny pokemon it transformed into a shiny version of the pokemon, this was changed in the last update.

Players (myself included) specifically shiny hunt for these shinys for this mechanic in the game, its a shame lose that from one moment to another

Ditto transforms into an exact replica of what it is transforming into, doesn't make sense that it would transform into the shiny version of something that isn't.

My headcanon is that the shinys dittos are color blind, they are making a copy of what they see(?

Pokemmo got the "wrong way" for so long, and that way was so cool, that now that it has been fixed it looks like a "nerf"/return
It seemed so cool before, giving a special value to shiny Ditto/Smeagle

I really agree with this! I specifically went for Shiny Smeargle for this reason and was so sad when I noticed it wasn't working anymore.

I please ask if we can revert shiny transform to the way it was before part 3 patch.

I really appreciate the teams consideration with this request.
