All of the Pokemon GO Raid bosses in November 2023 that have been revealed so far can be shiny, which is great news for shiny hunters. Although, you’ll need to be lucky to encounter shiny Pokemon after winning Raids.
The odds of a Tier 5 Raid boss being shiny are 1 in 20, while the odds of a Tier 4 raid boss being shiny are 1 in 64.

If you are after any of the 5-Star Raid bosses, the best time to battle them is during the November 2023 Pokemon GO Raid Hours. This is because the number of Tier 5 Raids taking place is greatly increased during these events, and each 5-Star boss has a Raid Hour where they are featured!
