Pokémon Go: Every Shiny Available – April 2023

Shiny Pokémon are some of the rarest encounters in Pokémon Go, and it's difficult to keep track of every single one.

There are hundreds of Pokémon you can go out of your way to catch in Pokémon Go. They’re scattered throughout the world, and collecting them can be a challenge. However, what’s even more difficult is tracking down these shiny versions, a unique coloration of a Pokémon that appears every so often.

Not every Pokémon in the mobile game has an unlocked shiny version. These typically appear a year or two after Pokémon has been in Pokémon Go, usually when Niantic is celebrating a special event. Keeping track of what does and does not have a shiny version is extremely challenging, which is why we’ve put together the guide below that covers every shiny Pokémon you can find in Pokémon Go.

All shiny Pokémon in Pokémon Go – April 2023

We’ve listed out every Pokémon that has a shiny version as of April 2023. We’ll be updating this guide as more shiny Pokémon are discovered and become available to you. We’ll be listing out the base versions, but keep in mind that, if a base Pokémon has a shiny version, the evolved form does as well.

The latest shiny Pokémon to be added to these lists were Drilbur, Stunfisk, and Galarian Stunfisk.
