Shiny Magikarps - could I miss them with my old version?

As you all know the event has been on for 4-5 days. During these days, I tried to catch a lot of Magikarps. However as my Pokemon Go was the old version (I checked the Appstore but there's no update) thus when I checked these Magikarps they were all normal, no shiny at all. I transfered all of them. Today I find that my Pokemon Go is automatically updated - ver. 0.59.1.

Do you think I might have transfered some shiny ones in these days?

Apparently it was a server side change so you don't need the update to see it.

Makes senses considering i could already see the normal Gyarados recolour before I finally got the update

Thank you for your answer. I forgot that I also see those different color Magikarps and Gyaradoses too.

No. I caught more than 125 before I got a shiny, and I was still on the old version when I caught it.
