Update: Pokémon GO boosted shiny rates for September 2023 Adventures Abound season

Trainers, the new Adventures Abound Season is upon us, and you know what that means: new chances to encounter Shiny Pokémon. That rush of adrenaline when you stumble upon a critter with a unique sparkle is something we all chase. So let’s talk about Shiny Pokémon in this new season and how the game just got a lot more dazzling.
First things first – what makes this season unique? The Adventures Abound Season introduces a fresh roster of Pokémon encounters, tasks, and yes, boosted Shiny rates for specific Pokémon. This is your golden (or should we say, “shiny”?) opportunity to nab some rare variants you’ve been eyeing.
Shiny Pokémon aren’t just regular Pokémon with a different palette. They’re the rare gems of the Pokémon GO universe. These special variants sport striking, often jaw-dropping, colors. Plus, they’re accompanied by a burst of sparkling stars to emphasize their special status. Capturing one? That’s a story to brag about to your Trainer buddies.
Niantic has kept the lid tightly sealed on the exact rates of Shiny encounters, adding an air of mystery to every tap. Each encounter harbors a hidden Shiny rate. However, during the Adventures Abound Season, certain Pokémon will have their Shiny rates amped up, adding a new layer of excitement to your in-game adventures.
Niantic spices things up by occasionally releasing events with temporarily increased Shiny rates. These are not to be missed, especially during a dynamic season like Adventures Abound. Staying in the loop with the latest updates can give you the edge you need to snag that elusive Shiny Pokémon.
The new Adventures Abound Season has reinvigorated the hunt for Shiny Pokémon. With new challenges, tasks, and boosted Shiny rates for select Pokémon, there’s no better time to hit the trails and expand your Pokédex.
