A Pokemon GO player showcases an impressive shiny haul from the first in-person event of GO Fest 2024. Although not as hard to find compared to the mainline games, shiny Pokemon are often elusive in Pokemon GO, with players having to grind through swathes of monsters before encountering a shiny creature.
Events like the monthly community days can increase the chances of encountering shiny monsters, but they can still be bothersome for some trainers. Currently, Niantic is hosting the in-person GO Fest 2024 event in Japan that runs until June 2, and one player has proved that luck is on their side by posting an impressive shiny haul after the first day.
Pokemon GO: How to Get Shiny Jangmo-o, Shiny Hakamo-o, & Shiny Kommo-o
Here's a complete guide as to how Pokemon Go players can get Shiny Jangmo-o, Shiny Hakamo-o, & Shiny Kommo-o.
A Twitter user by the name of xmaxos has managed to capture 320 shiny Pokemon during the Go Fest event in Sendai, Japan. The impressive video showcases different shiny monsters obtained during the first day of the event, including Pidgey, Staryu, and the fan-favorite, Pikachu. The clip also includes several shiny Event Pokemon, which are even harder to come by. Players can glimpse pocket monsters wearing different attire, such as Lapras wearing a scarf and Eevees adorned with sun and moon crowns.
Pokemon GO Player Shares Their Impressive Shiny Collection
Fans are unsurprisingly impressed with the haul, which includes a decent spread of Pokemon including the Electric and Flying-type Emolga which made its shiny debut at Go Fest 2024. Comments to the video are positive, with many congratulating the player on the impressive collection. Some trainers are even asking xmaxos to teach them the ways of collecting so many shiny monsters.
The next in-person Pokemon GO Fest 2024 event will be in Madrid from June 14-16 before heading to New York City on the weekend of July 5-7. The Madrid and New York events are set to follow a similar pattern to Sendai and feature different habitats for players to catch various Pokemon. Monsters from across all of the current generations will be available, with the vast majority having a chance of being shiny.
For those unable to participate in these events, a global festival will take place in Pokemon GO between July 13 and 14. The Global Go Fest will feature similar rotating habitats on the first day before being randomized for the rest of the event. Along with the free experiences, a paid ticket is also available that includes two special research challenges revolving around the mythical Marshadow and the newly released Necrozma.
