That's because black is right before white in hexadecimal. When you encounter or hatch a shiny the hexadecimal numbers for their colors are automatically turned over one. GameFreak developers have no say in how the shinies look, the computer automatically does it. Which is why so many blue Water types turn purple for their shinies and many Normal types turn (ghetto) green.
I'm probably dumb, but I can't see from the hex color palletes (I found on google) how the colors go after each other. How does orange become black (Charizard) or black becomes bluish purple (Houndour)?
Btw, Yveltal looks awesome, Zygarde is a funny minty toothpaste and Xerneas is meh. The Latis don't bother me.
