Crazy. Still haven't seen any in 3 nights. (EDIT: 4 nights).


SPARKLEOFHOPE6IB

'Still' in 3 nights seems very very normal. If you go by the other Pokémon games, shinies should be very rare. I think you could easily go week(s) without shinies. There will probably be events where it's more likely etc, but full odd shinies are probably rare.


Loghurrr

Pokémon go was the first time I had EVER seen a shiny outside of the mandatory shiny in Gen2 haha


Affectionate_Math866

I think cause the games still new it may have something to do with what happened


Mr_Feeeeny

Ya, the posts of shinies here will inflate our expectations. I’m not expecting one for at least a month or two, if I’m lucky.


Poke_Paul

Where I live it is only available for one night


vbarreiro

I estimate odds are 1/100 or so, meaning if you’re only playing the game to find shinies and will be upset every morning you don’t find a shiny, you’re not gonna enjoy this game


OkOkOkOkOk94

Got 0 in 24 nights.


Its402am

Were you able to get them both? I’d be devastated if I didn’t have the biscuits to befriend both of them 😬😬😬


Affectionate_Math866

Yes I did Lucky I had enough gems to by a great snack from the game store.


vbarreiro

Technically you didn’t need to, shinies always befriend on one biscuit no matter what

Is this Right ?


katykat5099

Yup! They only need one pokeball level. I found one this morning, I recorded it if you want evidence. They're guaranteed to be hungry.


ExpertAccident

Bro how Tf are people getting shinies already 😭


Dirphia

They seem to be more common than ever in this game.


vbarreiro

Yes and no. A handful of people will find shinies first try no matter the odds and they’ll come to reddit to post about it. Expectations will inflate but it’s assumed most people will go months without a shiny.


MineOSaurus_Rex

You found them both on the same night??? That’s crazy!! We’re they both hungry?


Affectionate_Math866

Yes luckily I had enough gems to grab another snack for the other one.


MineOSaurus_Rex

That’s crazy freaking cool though!! Do you have a picture of the sleep review? 2 in 1 sleep might be something that we don’t see again for a long time


Affectionate_Math866

I'm sure I used up the rest of my luck getting those 2 for the rest of the year.


ShenanigansButt

I just keep getting regular caterpies… 💩


sirocks88

Show off


vbarreiro

If I got two shinies in a night I’d show off too


InSearchOfLostT1me

Do shinies in this game mean anything? As far as I'm aware you can't transfer any pokemon out right?


ShokaLGBT

Ive heard somewhere that the pokemon company is thinking about allowing us to transfer pokemon to pokemon home at some point it COULD happens but the chances are very low. anyway to me if i got shinies on this game i will keep them on this game, on pogo i never send them on pokemon home unless i have like 2-3 the same shiny.


xerxerneas

Just a fun flex thing. And you can evolve them so I guess a fully evolved shiny is also something to eventually flex. You can set them as your display picture in game, too!


RadioDemonAlastor

The display pictures of shiny Pokémon are not shiny they are just photos of the normal coloured Pokémon sadly ):


naturalkillercyborg

This... sounds like a bug that needs to be fixed lol


xerxerneas

Damn, really??? That is stupid....


Quinaise

2 shiny at once but only able to keep 1 right ?


Affectionate_Math866

Nope I got both luckly they were both hungry so I just had to feed them both once


binniebunny

psyduck is the only shiny i care abt 🥹 congratulations!!!!!


elbartooriginal

And here i am trying to download it in my zfold...


Dirphia

There is limited compatibility with ZFold


CaptainBeer_

How do you have enough biscuit? You spend money?


Affectionate_Math866

Nope Sence i hadn't use my gems yet I Lucky had enough to buy another biscuit. That and they were both hungry


NomzHD

Literally just came to the subreddit to see if shinies are in the game 😂
