Shiny Gengar Thief

Sadly I had a shiny haunter go unreturned via trade today. Before the hate comes I know you should only ever trade shinies with people you know, etc. None of my other friends that have a switch have this game, so I do rely on link trades to get my evos. The shiny had been given away to me and thankfully I hadn't invested much into it other than candies, so not an incredible loss. Just wanted to vent. :/
