Smeargle-shiny or not?

[BulbasaurB.k.]

I was wondering if the smeargle i saw was shiny because i saw 2 at different times. In the other games smeargle has a red tipped tail and if it has a green tipped tail it is shiny. In xd i saw a smeargle with a green tail and of course assumed it was shiny. Was it or was it not? ;231;

Smeargle is one of the biggest problems for shinies in colosseum and XD.
In colosseum no matter what the smeargle with have a red tail, like the shiny form in the Game boy advance games, this is due to the fact that colosseum uses the same 'models' that the stadium games use. Smeargle has a green tail in colosseum and XD, if it is shiny it is a dark manky green tail

Oh.......oops guess i don't want a smeargle then...What if you trade it to a gameboyadvancegame, will it be shiny or normal?
