Pokemon GO: Best Method To Get Shiny Elgyem And Shiny Beheeyem

While there’s no guaranteed way to encounter a Shiny Elgyem, you can take advantage of the increased spawn rate during the Elgyem Spotlight Hour. More Elgyem encounters mean a better chance of matching its Shiny odds. Take advantage of different Pokemon GO items to boost wild Pokemon spawn rates, including Lure Modules, Incense, and the Weather Boost effect.

Elgyem experiences a Weather Boost and spawns more in windy weather. To maximize encounters, find a PokeStop or Gym with windy conditions, use a Pokemon GO Lure Module, activate Incense, and walk around the area. This strategy will stack the effects and further increase Elgyem spawns during Spotlight Hour.

Those who catch a Shiny Elgyem in Pokemon GO can evolve the monster into a Shiny Beheeyem. The evolution process requires 50 Candy; you can collect the necessary in-game Candy by catching and transferring multiple Elgyem.
