In Pokémon quest I have a white star next to my slowpoke, what does the white star mean?

What does a white star in Pokémon quest mean?


Solution 1:

According to this gamefaqs thread, the white star indicates the Pokémon is shiny. A shiny is an alternate color of the original form. As seen in the two images below, a shiny Rhyhorn has a white star while a regular Alakazam does not have a star.
