Pokemon have suddenly become un-shiny?

Hello everyone! I've run into a rather strange bug. Two of my shiny Pokemon on my main team, Gardevoir and Toxicroak, have suddenly reverted back to their normal (non-shiny) sprites. When I look at their summary pages, there's no little star icon next to them, as if they were never shiny at all! I don't have any recent screenshots of them to prove that they were originally shiny, but I have some ones I grabbed from an old backup save to (kind of) prove they're the same Pokemon:

These two are the only ones who seem to have been affected, as everyone else on my team is still shiny, just as they always were. Unfortunately I can't pinpoint exactly where or when it happened as I was doing a lot of things that didn't involve looking at their sprites. The last time I looked at them and they were still shiny, I was doing the Axew egg event. Right after that, I spent an hour or two breeding + trading some 'mons to trade to my brother, then started the dark basement puzzle, and finally noticed they weren't shiny as I started to battle Murmina.

 

Thanks in advance for any help! I'm also attaching my save file, as hopefully it's an easy fix. I really like Mega Gardevoir's shiny palette. :^(

Super easy.

 

Replace your old file with this one:

Hi, my Gardevoir also got "un-shinyed", i don't mind it to much, cuz I have her in a former shiny form on another save file (only 1 lvl apart), but I'm still interested what could cause this bug and how it could be possibly prevented. If anyone could give me some insight it would be much appreciated.

Hello, i'm also the same. I noticed my Gardevoir got unshiny-ed during battle with that rebattleble clown in Agate Circus. It was after wondertrading. Hopefully, someone can fix this easily so I can use it right away. Thanks

EDIT: Updated my save file. Unfortunately, my Empoleon also got unshinyed after regular trading. That makes it two from my main team 😢
