While a trainer’s already owned Pokemon cannot be shiny, it’s possible for say, Wally, to encounter a shiny Ralts in the in the tutorial where you teach (yea right) him how to catch a Pokemon, though it won’t stay shiny when you battle him later on.

Bulbapedia - Wally

It’s also possible for Professor Juniper’s Mincinno to be shiny, in the opening sequence and also in her demo on how to catch a Pokemon.

No. in-game, general NPC’s such as Ace Trainers ect have no chance of their Pokemon being shiny.

The only in game trainers you can battle that have a Shiny Pokémon, are three trainers in Generation III in Pokémon Fire Red and Leaf Green.

In this generation, several Pokémon Battle e Trainers have Pokémon which are preset as Shiny. Additionally, in the Trainer Tower in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, there are three Trainers who have preset Shiny Pokémon: the Trainer on the seventh floor in the Single Battle mode has a Shiny Meowth, the pair of Trainers on the first floor in the Double Battle mode have a Shiny Espeon, and finally, the second Trainer on the fourth floor in the Knockout Mode has a Shiny Seaking. No Trainers have preset Shiny Pokémon in the Mixed Mode.

Hope I helped :)

No, in-game trainer’s Pokémon will not be shiny because when they made the game they programmed all trainers not to have shiny Pokémon.
