Pokemon Go Reveals Two New Shiny Pokemon Coming Next Month

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades under my belt, I must admit that the latest announcement from Pokemon Go has me absolutely thrilled! The Max Out season, focusing on the Galar region, is a welcome breath of fresh air. Now, let’s be honest, I’ve caught more Falinks than I care to remember in Pokemon Sword and Shield, but seeing the Shiny version is a whole new ball game!


Over the past week or so, the hit game Pokemon Go has revealed details about its upcoming season, Max Out. This new season is heavily emphasizing the Galar region from Pokemon Sword and Shield, introducing numerous new Pokemon to the game. Notably, some Galar Pokemon that were previously accessible in Pokemon Go will soon be upgraded to their Shiny forms. The festivities kick off this coming Sunday, September 8th, with a special Raid Day dedicated to Falinks! This event will take place from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., local time, and players should expect to encounter more instances of Falinks during Raids.

What Does Shiny Falinks Look Like?

On Raid Day, some fortunate players may stumble upon a Shiny Falinks. Compared to the regular version, the Shiny Falinks stands out distinctly. The horns of this Pokémon, once red, now gleam gold, and its golden shell has been replaced with a rich brown one. If you’re a player who appreciates unique color schemes for Shiny Pokémon, this one certainly fits the bill! A picture of Shiny Falinks from Pokemon Sword and Shield is provided below.

Shiny Zacian’s Pokemon Go Debut

Apart from discovering Shiny Falinks, Pokemon Go enthusiasts can also anticipate the introduction of Shiny Zacian. From September 26th to October 4th, Zacian will make its comeback in Five-Star Raids. Fortunate players could stumble upon Shiny Zacian during these battles. Although Shiny Falinks is quite striking compared to its standard counterpart, Shiny Zacian takes it up a notch. Instead of the usual blue, Shiny Zacian sports a lighter shade of blue, while all pink elements have been swapped for a deep blue hue. This color scheme certainly stands out and is definitely worth tracking down!

In the game Pokemon Sword and Shield, Zacian was made Shiny and could only be obtained through a special event back in 2021. If you missed out on that chance, don’t worry! A fresh opportunity has arisen in Pokemon Go, but to take advantage of it, you need to have an active Pokemon Home account linked. For all those who are eager to catch a Shiny Zacian in Pokemon Go, this is your chance too!
