A committed Pokemon GO player has completed an astounding task within the mobile game, finishing the "Shiny Lucky Pokedex" for the original batch of 151 Kanto Pokemon. Much like in the main series games, Shiny hunting has become a popular pastime among players looking to acquire special forms of their favorite Pokemon. Niantic offers plenty of chances for players to pick up Shiny variants with Pokemon GO's monthly Community Days, alongside other limited-time events. One particularly passionate fan, however, has gone above and beyond with their Shiny Pokedex.
Pokemon GO's special "Lucky" Pokemon offer a variety of advantages for players who acquire them. Lucky Pokemon can only be obtained through trading with another player within Pokemon GO, with a higher chance for Lucky Pokemon when trading with friends with higher Friendship ratings. Lucky Pokemon not only feature reduced costs for powering them up using Stardust, but are also guaranteed to boast high IVs when acquired. Now, one fan is sharing their impressive collection of Lucky Pokemon.
Reddit user yakusokuN8 showed off their impressive collection on the Pokemon GO subreddit, featuring the original Kanto Pokedex entirely in Shiny Lucky forms. The impressive Pokedex collection boasts all 150 Pokemon from the original games in their Shiny forms, each boasting a Lucky Ribbon. While Mew is also included within the Pokedex post, the user does confirm that Mew cannot be Lucky within Pokemon GO as Mythical Pokemon cannot be traded. The user also revealed that the Pokedex completion took "at least over a year" to accomplish.
In the replies to the impressive feat, the user shared some more details about their Shiny Lucky Pokedex. The player confirmed that the group of Kanto Pokemon does include two "hundos" with perfect stats, specifically the Machamp and Kingler. They revealed that most of the trades to acquire the Lucky Pokemon were done with friends, though some did include other players for Community Day Pokemon. The user also confirmed that, following the completion of the Kanto Shiny Lucky Pokedex, they intend to complete Johto's next with 46 out of 99 Johto Pokemon already acquired.
yakusokuN8's unique accomplishment within Pokemon GO comes as Niantic has continued to introduce more content to the beloved mobile game. Pokemon GO's recent "Party Up" event offered players a chance to catch several recently released Paldean Pokemon, alongside a Special Research rewarding players with a Master Ball. The Fashion Week event earlier this month also featured the chance for players to find special variants of Pokemon like Dragonite and Quagsire among others. Pokemon GO's continued stream of new content will look to continue to inspire players to take their love for the game even further.
