Noticed they don't have them. :,(

Are there plans to make them work correctly?
I didn't find anything else on this subject elsewhere.

I believe that it would take too long to get them all into the game - majority of adoptable sites have only one spinda sprite- I believe that I read somewhere that there are well over 2 000 000 spinda sprites in games to ensure that each one the player encounters is unique - Imagine having to implement that many spinda sprites onto the site- it would probably cause lag and it would probably take ages to implement aswell.

I am collecting spinda plooshies OwO

Well I am pretty sure that there is an "easy" algorithm that is being used in the games to add the spots randomlyy. I doubt they are actually placing 2 Million sprites in their game... Considering that the Spinda sprite in B/W is 210 Byte large... multiplied by 4 Million (incl Shiny versions) = 800 MB :P

That aside; I am sure that you are a huge Spinda-lover, but I'm afraid that implementing this algorithm wouldn't be worth that much of the time... :/ I think the majority of the players cares for "bigger" stuff first, rather than optimizing such very small details.

Riako is right.
Imagine how long it would take to implement 2 million sprites. As Toby mentioned, B/W has a way of making the spots random but then there would be no time for other things to be implemented. Also, just imagine if someone tried to get all the shinies. The site would crash.

No problem.
Could somebody lock this?
