Shiny Pokémon are again highlighted in Pokémon HeartGold and
SoulSilver, where the red Gyarados makes its return as a plot point,
while Shiny Pokémon also appear in their Shiny state as walking
Pokémon when they follow the player.

Answer 4

It will appear as Shiny.

Source: My Red Gyarados following me around.
