In Pokémon Go, Bright Pokémon are extremely rare creatures whose color is different from other species of the same species. Coaches around the world are doing their best to get those precious little monsters in their hands. Learn everything you need to know about Pokémon Brillant.
When the game Pokémon Go was launched in July 2016, the first Pokémon "Shiny" or "chromatic" was only seen in March 2017 in French. In fact, during the water festival, Magicarpe and Leviator Shiny were integrated into the game . Over time, however, many Pokémon have been added in the shiny version. Before you reveal the full list, remember what a chromatic Pokémon is and how you can capture it.
Shining Pokémon: What is it?
A shiny Pokémon is a Pokémon of a different color than the other copies of the same species . For example, the shiny Leviator is red instead of blue. Although these color variations have existed since the first Pokémon Game Boy games (blue and red versions), this term was only formalized in the fourth generation.
Incidentally, Bright Pokémon have exactly the same stats and combat skills as their usual versions. The only real interest is to collect them and show them in the arenas in your city to provoke the other coaches. Apart from the legendary Pokémon, the Shining ones can be used to defend arenas. When you capture a shiny Pokémon, you also receive a badge for this little monster in your Pokédex.
How do I catch a shiny Pokémon in Pokémon Go?
Bright Pokémon are very rare in addition to special events and therefore very difficult to catch in Pokémon Go, which makes them particularly valuable. It is estimated that the probability of a chromatic Pokémon being hit is between 1/512 and 1/4096 . In detail, this would be 1/450 in the wild, 1/19 in the legendary raids, 1 / 24.5 during the community days and 1/50 in the Pokémon baby eggs.
Unfortunately, these chances of using bait or frankincense are not particularly high. Bright Pokémon can not be detected in advance in the list of nearby Pokémon. They appear in the list in their normal form. Only when the fight against the creature begins, you can see that it is a brilliant version . Even if your friend meets a shiny Pokémon and you play the same Pokémon in the same place and at the same time, it will not necessarily be light for you.
To hope to capture a shiny Pokémon, you must be patient and rely on your lucky star. Fight as much Pokémon as you can to maximize your chances of luster. For example, you can search for the nest of a Pokémon and fight any little monsters you see until luck smiles at you . Collect as many eggs as possible and go as far as possible to hatch them. Of course the same logic applies to raids as well.
Finally, if you fall for a chromatic Pokémon, you should use these tips to keep it from escaping from your eyes . First, make only effective throws to multiply your odds by 1.7. "Great" footage can also increase your chances by 2.
Also try to collect as many medals as possible before you can use a multiplier of 1.1 or 1.3 . The berries can also give a multiplier between 1.5 and 2.5. Finally, Super Ball and Ultra Ball each offer a multiplier of 1.5 or 2x.
After all , a shiny Pokémon will remain shiny as it develops . So when you develop a brilliant Magicarpe, it becomes Leviator Shiny.
