Illusion doesn't copy Shininess?

[Master Kai]

I'm not sure if there's a thread for this kind of questions, but anyway.

Like the title says, I've noticed while using my Zoroark that it's Ability, Illusion, doesn't copy the shininess of, for example, my Suicune. This is kinda annoying, because the opponent notices that and knows it's Zoroark. According to Bulbapedia, Illusion should copy even if the Pokemon is shiny, so is this some kinda bug or something?

Yea, it does that. But if your Zoroark is shiny and it copies a pokemon the sprite that Zoroark becomes would be shiny.
