@imperfectkiss Please restate that. It's confusing. What pokemon is it and what is weird about it Huh

Your post doesn't make much sense, but from what I can tell, I believe you mean't "Gengar"? 

If a Pokemon has a red star, then it is shiny. With some, like Gengar, it's just harder to tell. I believe shiny Gengar has a darker shade of purple than regular Gengar.

Sorry for the confusion. Yes it is a gengar with a red star symbol. It looks normal. I thought the shiny gen far was white. I guess not? Thank you for your hel

Shiny Mega Gengar is white Smile

Nope the normal shiny of Gengar looks very similar to a regular Gengar
Shiny Mega Gengar is white though. So if you give it Gengarite and Mega-evolve it in battle you'll see it's white
