Pokemon GO: Get Shiny Pheromosa By Winning 5-Star Raids

Get Shiny Pheromosa in Pokemon GO raid reward

There is just some probability of Shiny Pheromosa spawning in Pokemon GO after you defeat the raid boss; the Shiny encounter isn’t guaranteed. You must encounter several Pheromosa to match the legendary's Shiny odds. It is important to note that the only way to encounter several Pheromosa is by winning numerous Pheromosa raids.

While that is the case, defeating a legendary Pokemon GO raid boss is extremely challenging. Keep in mind that Pheromosa's CP boosts significantly as a raid boss, so make sure to team up with other players and avoid solo raids. You must strategize the raid counters after carefully studying Pheromosa’s weaknesses and resistances. The Pokemon on your battle roster must have the Same Type of Attack Bonus (STAB) moves that fall under Pheromosa's weaknesses.
