Just like not all the pokemon from nintendo follow the exact same pattern between normal and shiny (passimian anyone?) we dont always force our normals and shinies to follow the same pattern. However, yes, it is correct in that if the normal has a certain pattern, the albino follows the normal's pattern and the melan would follow the shiny's. A lot of it is rather hard to explain despite our best efforts. xD And there's a lot of color math and such involved.
