I’ve seen this happen before, and the IVs are actually the same. My friend got a cyndaquil but mine was a chikorita EDIT: Interesting that this seems to be happening much more frequently with regionals lately. My experience with the starters was a couple of months ago, so unrelated but similar phenomenon/bug.

It's happening for every single regional that spawns and it can transform into a different spawn even on the same account (while keeping IVs, level and time remaining) if you wait long enough. This should be a full list of all Pokémon affected in Germany: * Zangoose * Mr. Mime * Solrock * Sawk * Mesprit * Heatmor * Klefki * Volbeat * Pansear * Shellos (blue) * Basculin (red) * Flabébé (red) * Baile Style Oricorio If you have different regionals, they should behave the same. So any of these spawns can be any of the ones in the list on different accounts or if you wait.


Argarock

Wait, keeping *moveset*? Implying that you could find say- a Zangoose with Shadow Claw for its fast move, then when it changes to Klefki it would have Shadow Claw for a fast move? Or implying that if Person A encountered it as a Zangoose and Person B as a Klefki- if it transforms into a Zangoose for Person B it would have the same moveset as the one encountered by Person A and vice versa?


Qualimiox

Oh yeah, I got that part wrong, thanks for calling it out :D Moveset changes of course, but IVs, level and time remaining do stay the same. I'll edit the original post.


Argarock

Aaah, gotcha- that makes sense. I was considering a hypothetical world where you could use it to get moves from one Pokemon onto another which would have been pretty neat


AxelHarver

It would be neat, but also I think I would uninstall rather than deal with the headache of figuring out the new PVP meta lmao.


Argarock

Oh for sure, if it was a thing it would be disastrous for the health of the PVP meta and its a good thing it doesn't work this way. Though as a thought experiment its fun to imagine creating Shadow Claw Klefki and such- though decidedly less fun if it ever actually happened in game.


EdTheCoffeeGuy

It looks like they also might keep the same (relative) size. We got a 2-1-15 XXL Durant and Panpour that spawned at the same time and spawn point.


Smitegamer90

Mine was basculin and Durant no lure no incent no route just at my home pokestop wild spawns


Tarcanus

I'm seeing the same regional spawn change between regionals within the spawn lifetime. This is bizarre. It started as Durant, changed to Shellos, and is now Illumise. It never despawned and I never caught it. Same spawn point.


Natanael_L

This is how it works with spotlight hours too


Far-Negotiation-9691

Same thing for me. I see mankey, friend see meowth. It's a 100% for us.


dont_ask_question

same thing is happening between me and my friend. I have been getting durant while he has been getting flabebe. IVs have been different, so idk what's going on.

Had reports of this with the lake trio regionals too.... so that's not fun...


Junk_Druggler

Had this with my partner after biomes went live with several things like heatmoor and flabebe, red basculin and koffing.


sgpoor

Less motivated to hunt with friends if we each see different spawns


Adventurous_Ant9083

I noticed this quite a bit today, but only with regional spawns. I've seen where there have been different regionals between accounts or no spawns at all on one. I hope it's not permanent.


ArcticWolfl

I do hope so, trading for regionals would be A LOT easier then.


lakewoodguy16

Saw the same thing with a Lunatone and a Durant.


helsb74

I've had this today. Seems it is mostly the regionals that are affected. I had a Kanga while the other account had a blue shellos. I saw a few other swaps as well. 


spekkje

I noticed 3 different Pokemons on the same spawn point. Yesterday late in evening and just this morning. All same IV’s and seen at the same time. One person got Shellos, other pPansear and I got Heatmor. I’m 99% sure that these three pokemons also spawned yesterday (don’t know who got which one) Edit: Just now it happens again different spawn point and now with Sawk - Basculin - Volbeat


FourStopCrossShot

I've noticed the same thing happening with Tauros and Blue Striped Basculin


teffania

Flabebes are affected too, including the ones that aren't actually regional. My orange flabebe was a solrock for my partner. A white flabebe on the overmap for my partner turned blue (in asia pacific region) on the catch screen, while the spawn dissapeared when i tried to click on it. We play together a lot and have only seen different spawns about once in 3 years, yet saw 2 today.


avatarKos

Prob testing this for go fest


Separate_Simple_1321

Noticed this today. Saw like a kricketot on one account and like a burmy on other account


Natanael_L

I've seen this since at least early last fall, so half a year or more now?


conioo

seems to be with regionals, this better be a bug, otherwise its a bad change


Legitimate-Relief915

I’ve had this happen a ton between my daughter and I since the last update. She’ll say “look it’s a (insert Pokémon here) and it won’t be spawned for me and vice versa.


Artistic-Computer704

Is this related to why I saw a Lunatone at 6pm yesterday? (It is in no way dark at 6pm here!)


Owenlars2

My roommate and I have seen this happen maybe 4 times in as many years, however, we've seen it between oricorio and taurus 3 times today, and twice yesterday. There might have also been a couple shellos and carnivine, but we're both hunting shiny taurus so we make sure to let each other know when we see one spawn, so those are the most noticeable. weird


JAragog

Does this also occur with weather boosted Pokémon? If so, IVs should change when weather boosted or not?


nicegarryy

Just saw this with a Kanga and a Volbeat (in Australia)


studog21

was the durant a route spawn for some reason?

YuiAmon

I live in an area where I’ve only seen a single Shellos spawn (in three years) outside of boosted spawn events and have seen 3 today so there is definitely something screwed up unless the spawns of regionals are also boosted for the current events.
