Pokemon Go Adds Six New Shiny Pokemon, Here's Which Ones

<p>Six new shiny Pokemon have just been added to <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/pokemon-go/">Pokemon Go</a>. In celebration of the mobile game's limited-time Johto Festival event, which increases the spawn rate of all Johto exclusive Pokemon, the six additions are all part of the Gen 2 Pokedex.</p><p>In a <a href="https://twitter.com/PokemonGoApp/status/1031669714186133504">tweet</a>, Pokemon Go revealed both shiny Natu and Sunkern had been added, while hinting there might be more than just the two. It's since been revealed that the third shiny addition is Pineco, and that all three Pokemon evolve into shiny versions of Xatu, Sunflora, and Forretress respectfully.</p><p>Shiny Pokemon have long been sought after for their rarity. They can most easily be identified by their alternative color scheme, but Pokemon Go adds a small sparkle animation to the capture screen so you'll know when they first appear. Shiny Natu has yellow wings and feet. Surprisingly, shiny Sunkern is a darker and less vibrant yellow than its non-shiny counterpart. Shiny Pineco has the most noticeable transformation, changing the dark green pinecone Pokemon into a yellowish orange.</p><p>The Johto Festival also includes a new Special Research quest to Pokemon Go that allows players to catch the legendary <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/pokemon-go-celebi-special-research-quests-out-now/1100-6461207/">Celebi</a>. New Johto-inspired avatar items have also been added.</p><p>Pokemon Go is available on both iOS and Android devices. Nintendo Switch exclusive <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/pokemon-lets-go-eevee/">Pokemon: Let's Go, Pikachu! / Pokemon: Let's Go, Eevee!</a> features gameplay that borrows mechanically from Pokemon Go, and is scheduled to release on November 16.</p>
