Due to a programming error, general encounter (apparently not other encounters) Shiny Pokémon variations (i.e. stars, squares sparkles (based on [[diamond dust]]?)) currently have the wrong odds. Star sparkles were intended to be more common (15/16) but instead the contrary is true and the odds of a squares Shiny encounter are around 4095/4096.
