Pokemon Go Shiny Nymble Debut in the Wild and as a Field Research Task Encounter
Trainers, it looks like someone at Niantic may have accidentally pressed the wrong button again, resulting in the unintended release of Shiny Nymble. Since there was no official announcement about this new shiny Pokemon, we think it’s likely a mistake.
The Taken Treasures event is a new event in Pokemon Go. This event introduces new Pokemon, new Shiny Forms, exclusive event bonuses, a Team Go Rocket Takeover, and, to our surprise, a new Shiny Pokemon, Shiny Nymble. Niantic and Pokemon Go didn’t mention anything about this new Shiny form, and that’s why we believe is being released by mistake. Players have begun to report sightings of this unique, yellow Pokemon in the game, so let’s find out how to catch one.
Shiny Nymble can be found in the wild and as a reward for completing a specific Field Research task, which requires you to Defeat 2 Team Go Rocket Grunts. There are reports that Shiny Nymble encounters are currently boosted.
The Pokemon Go Taken Treasures event runs until February 1, 2024. Be sure to complete the Field Research tasks to get a chance at catching this new Shiny Pokemon.
