Yes, if you are lucky, you can find and catch the shiny version of both Slowpoke and its Galarian regional version in Pokemon GO.
However, just like all shinies in Pokemon GO, the odds of encountering a shiny Slowpoke are extremely low.
In fact, the exact odds of finding shiny Pokemon in Pokemon GO are so low that, on average, only 1 in every 500 Slowpoke will be shiny!
If you’re after a shiny version of Slowpoke, then the best time to catch one is during the Pokemon GO Slowpoke and Galarian Slowpoke Community Day! This is because of the sheer amount of Slowpoke that will be spawning in the wild!
What Do Shiny Slowpoke & Shiny Galarian Slowpoke Look Like?
The shiny version of Slowpoke looks very similar to the standard version. The only difference is that it is a slightly lighter shade of pink.
Meanwhile, the shiny version of Galarian Slowpoke is bright yellow with a dark yellow head. This is very different to the standard version, which is pink and has a yellow head.
Additionally, these shiny Slowpokes can also evolve into different shiny versions of Slowbro and Slowking!
Although, if you want to evolve your Slowpoke into Slowking, you’ll need to know how to get a King’s Rock in Pokemon GO.
How to Get Shiny Slowbro & Shiny Slowking in Pokemon GO
To get shiny Slowbro and shiny Slowking in Pokemon GO, you must evolve a shiny Slowpoke. This is because you can’t catch one in the wild.
Evolving Shiny Slowpoke into shiny Slowbro requires just 50 Slowpoke Candy. Meanwhile, evolving it into shiny Slowking requires 50 Slowpoke Candy and a King’s Rock.
How to Get Shiny Galarian Slowbro & Shiny Galarian Slowking in Pokemon GO
To get a shiny version of Galarian Slowbro or Galarian Slowking, you must evolve a shiny Galarian Slowpoke, as these Pokemon do not spawn in the wild.
This requires 50 Slowpoke Candy and catching 30 of either Psychic (for Galarian Slowbro) or Poison-type Pokemon (for Galarian Slowking) with Galarian Slowpoke as your buddy.
Of course, earning 50 Candy per shiny Slowpoke you want to evolve will take a lot of time. Here’s how to boost the amount of Candy you earn in Pokemon GO to speed up this process!
