Currently, the Johto event is running and there is double Stardust for every captured Pokémon. If you want to take advantage of this bonus, you should at least light some incense from home or take a walk while observing the restrictions in your state.
Shiny Snubbull and Granbull
Will there be Shiny Snubbull? The shiny version of Snubbull is already in the game, and you can also encounter the shiny from the quests.
How rare will the shiny be? So far, shiny chances have always been increased at such events. This is also true for Snubbull.
A precise rate of the shiny chance cannot be provided yet, but if you collect all 69 rewards, you have a good chance of getting a shiny.
Until then, you can still obtain free items by redeeming a code. We show you exactly how to get this code in this article.
