Ever wondered how you can make your Pokemon GO adventure even more glittering? Let’s dive into how to shiny hunt in Pokemon GO and turn your collection into a dazzling display.

Shiny hunting in Pokemon GO involves looking for Pokemon with a different color scheme than usual. These rare variants are known as ‘Shiny Pokemon,’ and they’re highly sought after by trainers worldwide.

Short and Sweet: Catching Shiny Pokemon

To catch Shiny Pokemon in Pokemon GO, you need to play regularly and participate in special events. Every Pokemon encounter holds a small chance of being shiny. This chance doesn’t increase with the number of Pokemon you catch, so it’s all about persistence and luck.

Shiny Pokemon often appear during Limited Research events, Community Days, or special holiday events. These occasions significantly increase your chances of encountering a shiny by providing more spawns of the featured Pokemon.
