Shiny Pokémon are a big deal. Every Pokémon GO Trainer knows that catching a Shiny Pokémon is a rare event. Catching Shiny Pokémon is not something that happens every day, but it looks like today we are in luck. Reports are coming in, confirming that some Shiny Pokémon are currently boosted.
Finding a Shiny Pokémon isn’t easy. You won’t see Shiny Pokémon differently on the map. They only show their unique colors and stars when you click on them. They usually have a slightly different color than the normal version. The moment you see stars around a Pokémon on your screen, you know it’s a Shiny one and you try to catch it right away.
Niantic and Pokémon GO never share the shiny rates, but the community keeps track and shares the info.
Right now, the Dazzling Dream event is still live. Players are reporting that Shiny Spritzee and Shiny Swirlix are appearing more often, so you have a better chance of finding them. According to reports, the odds of getting Shiny Spritzee or Shiny Swirlix are 1 in 50. These are great numbers, and we hope you will end up with a new Shiny today.
You can find these Shiny Pokémon in the wild, from 7km Eggs, by completing the ‘Power up Pokémon 10 times’ Field Research task, and in the Dazzling Dream: Fairy Tale Timed Research.
