Summary
APokemon GOplayer was incredibly lucky and caught seven shiny Pokemon in just one day. As in the other games in the series, catching a shiny critter is a moment of great joy forPokemon GOplayers. However, encountering these famous critters works differently in the augmented reality game.
With the release ofPokemon Scarlet and Violet, players can resort to mass outbreaks to have a better chance of finding shiny ones. Another tool available in multiple games is theitem called Shiny Charm, which also helps hunt for these elusive monsters. However, these tools don’t exist inPokemon GO, so trainers rely on pure luck, or on boosting events that increase the chances of certain shiny ones appearing.
Redditor jalexander519 showed immense luck and got shiny Skrelp, Patrat, Wooper, Galarian Moltres, Yungoos, Flabebe, and Magikarp after a walk. In the post, they say they tried toget shiny Gigantamax Pokemon, but couldn’t get any. On the walk afterward, everything changed, with the seven pocket monsters they took the images of appearing in sequence. The most impressive capture is the Galarian Moltres because it is one of the rarest Pokemon to see, and capturing it with a Great Ball, one of the least effective in the game, makes the capture even more impressive.
Pokemon GO Player Captures Seven Shinies in Just One Day
The other Redditors reacted with humorous comments to the OP’s luck. One said they only managed to get a Shiny in three months, even with all the events that increased the chance of Shiny spawning. Another player said that they tried to grind for hours to get just one shiny Pokemon, while a commenting Redditor said that they had beenlooking for Galar’s birds inPokemon GOfor years until they found the first one, and only now did they finally get one.
As usual,Pokemon GOplayers can try their luck at finding a shiny Pokemon just by playing the game normally. For those who want to try through events, a new opportunity was recently available in the Powerful Potential event, which increased the chances of critters like Alolan Raichu and Gigantamax Blastoise appearing in shiny form. Another event is the recently announcedCatch Mastery 2024, which will increase the spawns of Kabuto, Omnyte, and Archen. For Johto fans, Totodile will be the Pokemon featured at the next Community Day Classic, and players will have the opportunity to encounter shiny Totodile.
