Can the event pokemons be shiny even if their overworld sprite isn't?

[Great Leader Mayonnaise]

I'm right at the beginning of the game and I would like to get a shiny Pachirisu. I saved right in front of it and I'm currently resetting to get it shiny, but is it even possible ? Its nature and EVs change each time, but of course the overworld sprite  does not, and it's not shiny. Am I wasting my time here?

 

Thanks
