4th Gen Pokemon Platinum help - the hunt for my missing pokemon

    So i can't find some of my pokemon from pokemon platinum, my shiny pokemon that i hunted for. A couple of starly, poochyena, houndoor, and most importantly my Giratina. They're just gone from my pc, theres still a space in my team where Giratina was too.

    I have searched through every game I have, followed most of what people i asked suggested i should do, and have come to the conclusion that they can not be on any game that i own other than Platinum. This is confirmed due to the fact that gen 5 and up show shiny pokemon in the pokedex, and none of them have any record of the pokemon i had in platinum. I thoroughly checked all other games that dont have this feature. However if i happened to miss something, they could be in pokemon Soul Silver or pokemon Diamond.

    Does anyone know of any location or area or separate pc box in pokemon Platinum, Diamond, or SoulSilver where I might have put these pokemon and perhaps forgotten i put them there? Just anywhere you can store say a team of pokemon?

    I have checked daycares, wouldn't be able to put them all in anyway. I also could not have used poke bank and lost them in that, as i would have had to transfer to gen 5 first and again they arent in the pokedex of those games.

    My only other thought is that I tried to transfer them and an error occurred which corrupted it and deleted their data (though i would have probably known at the time), or that i traded them to a friend to keep safe for the time being, however i have gotten my friend to check their games and they cannot find them.

    It's specifically my shiny pokemon that i cant find, all my other pokemon seem to be there. Meaning that I probably would have put them somewhere together.

    Please help, anything will be appreciated. It could be even the most simple, obvious thing that i might have overlooked

    Thanks.
