Can I glitch shiny Pokemon in Pokemon platinum?

yesterday I was playing Pokemon platinum for the 5th time when while I was deciding which team I was going to create to spend the adventure, I remembered that I had never used gliscore so I went to route 206 and started looking for gligars. The first one that appeared was shiny, the second also and the third one in the same way so I instantly thought that something was wrong with my game. Can someone explain this phenomena?

There are 3 main ways this could have happened.

Glitches:The main Glitch that affects shiny rates in the Cute Charm glitch.Thispage over here explains the glitch, but yeah, if you had a Pokemon with cute charm as your lead, this is probably why you encountered 3 shiny Gligar.Also this, RNG manipulation.Luck:The 3 Shiny Gligar could also just be plain luck, although there is averyslim chance this actually happened.

You have a fake copy/reproduction:If you have a reproduction, there is a chance the person who made the reproduction, accidentally tinkered with some of the code, causing some of these rare occurences.

I hope this helps

Yes. It’s very possible to glitch shinys in platinum. In fact, you can glitch shinies in most any Pokémon game( Excluding R/G/B/Y).
