Pokemon GO: How To Get Shiny Mega Latias And Shiny Mega Latios

Pokemon GO players can get Shiny Mega Latias and Shiny Mega Latios by winning 5-star raids.

But these legendaries are extremely hard to win against; players must have proper counters to achieve it. That said, this guide explores the best way to get Shiny Mega Latias and Shiny Mega Latios in the game.

Best Pokemon GO Counters For Mega Latios

After defeating Mega Latios and Mega Latias in raids, their Shiny variants may be spawning. But since the Shiny encounter isn’t guaranteed, one might get a Standard variant instead. One has to win several of these Pokemon GO 5-star raids to spawn numerous Latias/Latios and match their Shiny odds.

Once players get their hands on a Shiny Latias or a Shiny Latios, the final step is Mega Evolution in Pokemon GO. Mega Evolving these Shiny monsters results in Shiny Mega Latias and Shiny Mega Latios. Trainers can Mega Evolve their Shiny Latias and Shiny Latios for 300 Mega Energy for the initial process; it only costs 60 Mega Energy for later Mega Evolutions.
