>shiny only affects the log, something that has never been done before (even looking at mons like conkeldurr) suggesting that the log is the actually the pokemon
>komala is always asleep. the pokemon website says that "No one has ever seen a komala awake". This would be a perfect cover up, never having to move or wake up, meaning if it weren't a living thing, it wouldn't be necessary to move or even look alive.
>"Once it grabs a log, it almost never releases it"
>this isn't the first time they have done a puppet/disguise pokemon to take hits for it (wobbuffet, mimikyu)
