If you disassemble and then reassemble a shiny Zygarde, will it stay shiny?

I heard about the Shiny Zygarde event and it really got me thinking. If you disassemble a shiny Zygarde then will it stay shiny once you reassemble it? Just wondering.

The event Zygarde cannot be separated. Why? It’s because of its ability, power construct. If you try to separate the event Zygarde, the game will say: “The cells are bound together too tightly! It can’t be separated!”, which would be the same for any other complete Zygarde. But, if you had a shiny Zygarde without power construct, then you could separate it and lose the shininess.

The shiny 100% Forme has the same colors as shiny 50% Zygarde.

EDIT: Yay, this is my second answer!

The Shiny Zygarde event carries the usual event ribbon, which makes it immune from being sent out on GTS or Wonder Trade. But in Zygarde’s case, the ribbon also serves an extra purpose: the disassembly machine will outrightrefuseto allow you to disassemble a Zygarde that has this event ribbon, so you don’t have to worry about accidentally destroying a shiny and only being able to reconstruct a non-shiny after all.
