> I examine it in the PC and see it has a berry held item. So, thinking the berry is the cause of it's discoloration, I give it to my Swampert, expecting him to turn gold.

Ironically, a few years ago I encountered a shiny Pooch on my new Emerald cart, but in an attempt to weaken it, I kill it with my Aron. I recently "reclaimed" shiny Pooch a year ago on Omega Ruby, but it doesn't feel the same.
