Can you trade Pokemon shiny gold to shiny gold?

If the xor of these two results is less than eight, then the Pokémon is Shiny. This results in a probability of 8 in 65536; simplified as 1/8192 (2-13, or 0.01220703125%), just as in Generation II. If E xor F is less than eight, then the Pokémon is Shiny.

In Trainer Tower in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen there are three Trainers which have Shiny Pokémon. In the Single Battle mode, the seventh Trainer has a Shiny Meowth, while in Double Battle mode, the first pair of Trainers have a Shiny Espeon. Finally, in the knockout mode, the fourth Trainer will send out a Shiny Seaking.

Several Pokémon Battle e Trainers have Pokémon which are preset as Shiny. In Generation IV, some Pokémon, such as Mystery Gifts and Ranger Manaphy, cannot be Shiny due to the game's code. However, the Ranger Manaphy's Shininess won't be altered by the game if traded to a second cartridge as an Egg (changing the ID and SID).

There are other methods which make obtaining alternately colored Pokémon a little bit easier: the Masuda method and the Poké Radar slightly raise the probability of hatching Pokémon from Eggs and catching Pokémon from the wild, respectively. In the Veilstone Game Corner, in the second mode on the slot machines, a Clefairy appears on the lower screen. There are three kinds of Clefairy: a Ditto that has transformed into a Clefairy, a normal Clefairy, and a Shiny Clefairy.

Shiny Clefairy are the rarest and last for the most rounds, but are not as rare as encountering a wild Shiny Pokémon. 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. In Generation V, Pokémon in the Pokédex will appear Shiny if the first specimen of that Pokémon encountered is Shiny.

A special event has been released that will allow the player to encounter a wild Zoroark if one of the Shiny legendary beasts released with the thirteenth movie is transferred forward to Generation V. In Generation V, the game is programmed so that wild Reshiram, Zekrom and Victini as well as any Pokémon obtained from the Dream World will never be encountered Shiny. However, like all Pokémon, Reshiram, Zekrom, and Victini have Shiny sprites.

In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, the player may encounter a Shiny Haxorus at level 60 in the Nature Preserve. Also, after defeating Benga in either the Black TowerB2 or the White TreehollowW2, he will give the player either a Shiny GibleB2 or a Shiny DratiniW2. The player will also receive the Shiny Charm from Professor Juniper after completing the National Pokédex.

In most generations there are a few Pokémon that cannot be obtained Shiny without cheating or glitches, due to either being distribution-exclusive without an in-game location or, in Generation V, being programmed so that they cannot be Shiny in the wild. In Pokémon Stadium and Pokémon Stadium 2, Pokémon with a nickname can be colored slightly differently, whether or not they are actually Shiny. This seems to have been removed from later games.

In the Ekans Hoop Hurl game in the Kid's Club, there are golden Diglett that are worth extra points. In Stadium 2, there is an option while viewing the list to exclude any non-Shiny Pokémon from the listing (ie. Group Color Pokémon/Cancel Color Pokémon).

Here they are called Color Pokémon.
