In Pokémon GO, you can now catch Shiny Yanma for the first time. The Pokémon is now appearing worldwide thanks to the Safari Zone in Canada.
What is happening in Canada? In Montreal, a major city in Canada, a Safari Zone is currently taking place. In addition to rare Pokémon like Unown and Tropius, there are also Shiny Yanma available for the first time.
Yanma can be found not only in the Safari Zone but also worldwide. We will tell you how long they will be available and what your chances are for a Shiny.
Your Chances for Shiny Yanma in Pokémon GO
How long will Yanma be available now? Shiny Yanma is now permanently in the game. However, the event in which Yanma appears more frequently ends on Sunday, September 22.
What does Shiny Yanma look like? You will easily recognize the Shiny version. Yanma has turned blue in the areas that are usually red on its body. Yanmega is almost entirely blue.
Here’s why you should go hunting now: Currently, you have better chances for Shiny Yanma. At least some players report an increased Shiny chance, and past events have shown that the Shiny chance is higher.
At the last Safari Zone, there were for example, increased spawns of Kecleon. The chances of finding a Shiny were also increased worldwide over the weekend.
How likely is Shiny Yanma after this? Yanma will likely have a probability of 1 in 450. This is common for Shinies in the wild.
Here’s what else you can look forward to: In October, the next Safari Zone is coming up. There it is likely that Shiny Bellsprout will be available worldwide.
There will also be another event in October. The Community Day is coming up:
