Pokemon GO: How To Get Shiny Abra

Shiny Abra Spotlight Hour Pokemon GO

Events like Spotlight Hour featuring Abra boost its wild spawn rate. Lucky players can also encounter a Shiny Abra in Pokemon GO. You must take advantage of the event’s boosted wild spawn rate to match Shiny Abra’s spawn rate. There are also several in-game items that can increase wild Pokemon spawn rate.

  • Abra’s Weather Boosts activates and increases its wild spawn rate in windy areas.
  • You must look for a PokeStop in windy weather.
  • Attach a Lure Module to that specific PokeStop.
  • Activate an Incense and walk around the Lure Module’s area of effect.

This strategy can increase wild Pokemon spawn rate but doesn’t guarantee a Shiny encounter. Even after encountering numerous Abra, only lucky players might get a Shiny Abra in Pokemon GO.

Once you catch a Shiny Abra, you can feed it 25 Abra Candies to evolve the monster into a Shiny Kadabra. You can then evolve the Shiny Kadabra into a Shiny Alakazam for 100 Abra Candies.
