Trainers everywhere have been out hunting for shiny variants of Pokemon in
Pokemon Go despite the cold during the December Community Day Weekend Event, and to ensure that players don't slow down, another shiny variant has now been added.
As you can see from the tweet below, fan favorite Ghost Type Pokemon Misdreavus, which usually brandishes a purple-ish/grey coloring now has a shiny variant bearing olive green skin. Of course, this means that players will also be able to capture the adult and evolved form of this Pokemon as well in
Pokemon Go, Mismagius also shiny.
Trainers who hunt for shiny variations of different Pokemon usually know that the quickest and easiest way to find and capture a shiny version of a Pokemon that you are looking for is by chaining the same one over and over in a row. Normally, that would be difficult for a rare Pokemon that doesn't appear often in the wild in
Pokemon Go, like Misdreavus, for example.
Fortunately, in admiration of the Ghost Types, Niantic is currently featuring Misdreavus amongst other spooky creatures in the current December Raid Boss List. This will allow a much easier chance for players to obtain these new shinies and load up their Pokedex.
If there is any chance you're one of the few people in the world who live under a rock and don't know what Pokemon Go is, the trailer can be seen below and you can download it for free now.
Let us know in the comments if you're headed out for this or whether or not Shinies even matter to you in the first place. Sound off below!
