Can Lunatone be shiny in Pokémon GO?

Can this Lunar Pokémon be shiny?

Niantic regularly adds new shiny Pokémon to Pokémon GO for players to hunt down, and they exist as some of the most sought-after catches in the game. Recently, with the conclusion of the Pokémon GO Fest 2022 Finale, spawns in Pokémon GO became heavily focused on Lunatone and Solrock. This is likely a hint towards the legendary Pokémon Solgaleo and Lunala coming to the game, but players could take advantage of this to get ahold of shiny variants of these Pokémon.
