UPDATE Glimmers of Gratitude Masterwork Research, How to Get Shiny Shaymin in Pokemon Go
Trainers, Shiny Shaymin is making its Pokemon Go debut, and the only way to obtain it is by completing the Glimmers of Gratitude Masterwork Research.
Niantic and Pokemon Go have released a new Masterwork Research, this time featuring Shiny Shaymin. The Glimmers of Gratitude Special Research is available globally, too. The tasks for catching Shiny Shaymin are tougher for players who didn’t attend the LA event compared to those who did.
Masterwork Research is a different type of Special Research. It requires a significant amount of effort and time to complete and to receive the rewards. This storyline is pay-to-play, with more stages and challenging tasks.
The Glimmers of Gratitude Special Research consists of seven steps, and trust me, it won’t be easy at all. We will not be able to complete the Shiny Shaymin Masterwork Research right away because it is designed to be completed over a longer period.
Please note this is the LA ticket holder version. The Global version can be found here.
