Shiny Pokemon not shiny after episode 10 update

I had a Red Gyarados and a shiny Golduck but after I updated to episode 10 they're not shiny anymore. I still have my shiny Golbat and my shiny Boldore so I know it's not all of them. Why just those two?

Hm. I definitely didn't do anything with either Golduck or Gyarados. On the contrary I did change Golbat so if something was to be messed up I would expect it to be that one.

Checking the files, the files for those shinies are still in place and titled properly. Do these Pokmeon still do the sparkley thing when you send them out in battle?

No they don't have the star, they don't make the shiny sound or sparkle. They're just normal now. Would the fact that I accidentally merged the files for episodes 9 and 10 when I was extracting episode 10 have anything to do with it? After I started the merge I just had it replace all similar files.

When I was playing episode 9 and they were shiny. I was saved in the Yureyu HQ building right before you fight Sigmund when I opened in episode 10, if that helps any...

Heyhey, anyone anyone wanna post their save file for me to test my theory on? Someone who lost shiny Pokemon- tell me which if you haven't already please~

Okay, I've confirmed the problem, and it's reversible.

If you look in the changes, you'll note that I slightly decreased the shiny rate this episode (by about .07)

Apparently that decrease is retroactive, so any Pokemon that was shiny because of that .07 difference was made unshiny.

I'll revert the change, because I know that's disappointing.

After the update my Growlithe who was born shiny, gets an error message whenever he is brought into battle. He is still shiny though. I can't remember it off the top of my head but its something about the sprite being null or invalid or something. x.x
