So I was wondering 2 things about shinys:
Can pokemon caught in and transferred from a pokewalker turn out to be shiny?
If you evolve a shiny pokemon dose it always remain shiny?

I do not know for certain, but I would say its probable because each pokemon has its own secret ID number that determines if its shiny or not.
Evolved pokemon do stay shiny, but sometimes they dont look as cool as the pre-evo pokemon.
Psyduck to Golduck is a great example of this.
Shiny Nidoran F is pink (the color of Nidoran M), Shiny Nidoran M is blue (the color of Nidoran F). This extends to Nidorina and Nidorino.
After you evolve them further, Nidoking is still blue. Nidoqueen? She becomes green.
Charizard is the exception to this rule.
Love black charizard
Yea, my shiny gengar didn't look as cool as I thought.
Shiny Haunter looked pretty cool, though.
I don't know the answer to this, but I've never had one do this (And I got quite a few from it)
Yes, it remains shiny through evolution.
Regarding point one, I'm nigh on certain that Pokéwalker Pokémon are still given personality values; if they are, then they have 1/8192 odds just like every other.
If Hazier says it, it must be true.
Now, now, don't go too far. I've never Pokéwalked in my life, but the logic seems sound enough.
Most of the time you're right though, so I've learned to trust your instincts and logic.
Ah good. I would die a little inside if I got a shiny Abra or Gastly just to find out I should never evolve it :-S
The only abra I want right now is A_Wild_Abra
