All static encounters and gifts are shiny locked, the real question is why the fuck do they only give you 1 A-Vulpix in the whole game instead of just having the request unlock them as a normal encounter or at least a distortion encounter? It's good enough for the starters and fucking Spiritomb but not A-Vulpix? It even cucks the Ice Stone since you'll never need more than 1 unless you just want an early Glaceon.
