How to get Shiny Zoura in Pokemon Go?

Question

Will the Pokemon it copies be shiny in battle, or will you not be able to tell until after you catch it?

Comments

I know from experience the Pokémon it copies won't affect its chances of being shiny, though I don't have any proof of it.

you're gonna have to wait for the cutscene I think to tell if its shiny, the pokemon it copies doesn't affect its shiny rate I think. I also think the rates like 1/64 too

I think y’all misunderstand me. If I have a Pikachu as my buddy, will a shiny Zorua appear as a Shiny Pikachu, normal Pikachu but with sparkles, or regular Pikachu

---

Oh. In that case, I can say that it'll appear as a regular Pikachu, regardless if the Zorua is shiny or not.
