Shiny checks are paused

On 30 October 2026 Scopely changed how Pokémon GO decides which wild spawns are shiny for each account. We can no longer tell which spawns will be shiny for you.

  • No more shiny checks for now

    We have stopped every shiny check and shiny DM, here and in our Discord, rather than send you guesses.

  • Add-on members keep their settings

    If you have the 100% Shiny add-on, your saved friend codes and settings are kept. We will post an update for you in our Discord.

  • Everything else works as normal

    100% IV coordinates, PvP, raids, quests and every other feature are not affected.

Questions? Ask us in our Discord.

More for shiny hunters

See how rare each one really is on Shiny Odds, where the rates are counted from our own scanners rather than datamined, and keep track of the ones you have caught with the Shiny Checklist.
