Pokemon Go Fest 2022 – Which Pokemon Are Shiny

Recommended Videos

If you’re looking to stand out from the crowd in Pokemon GO, you’re going to want to start taking the time to shiny hunt, especially during Pokemon GO Fest. If you’re unfamiliar with the concept, you’ll need to try to find these special Pokemon in the wild, which offer a new set of colors to a possible favorite of yours. Some have completely different color palates, while others are a bit more subtle.

You’ll know you’ve come across a shiny Pokemon, thanks to a few visual cues, and you’ll want to make sure that you’re prepared to do whatever is needed to get your hands on one of these special guys or gals. Make sure that you’re ready to start searching with our handy guide on which Pokemon can be shiny during Pokemon GO Fest!

Finding Shiny Pokemon During GO Fest 2022

Since there are a few different types of areas that you’ll be able to explore during your time in GO Fest, you’ll need to know where to search, as well as which monsters have a chance to be shiny. Thankfully, we’ve got you covered, so let’s get right into things. Here’s who to be on the lookout for, as well as where you’ll be able to find them.

Normally, you’ll only have a 1 in 500 chance to come across a shiny Pokemon, but during special events such as GO Fest, these odds are significantly lowered, going down to as low as 1 in 96, making your shiny hunting experience more delightful than ever before. Making sure that you’re shiny checking Pokemon to avoid throwing valuable Pokeballs is also a great thing. Shiny checking is going into an encounter, seeing if they are shiny by seeing an icon and a flash of stars, and if not, backing out and trying another Pokemon.

Making sure that you’ve got enough storage to catch as many monsters as possible is key before a major event like this, so make sure that you’re ready both physically and digitally. If you’re looking along the lines of adding more Legendary ‘mons to your team, you’re also in luck during the GO Fest event, as you’ll have a chance to get your hands on two different versions of the gratitude Pokemon, Shaymin!
