Shiny tracker

What are the shiny rates in-game?

Default wild rate: roughly 1-in-500. Community Day species: ~1-in-25 for ~3 hours. Hatch Day eggs: ~1-in-64. Raid bosses with shiny available: ~1-in-20. Special events bump rates further — Spotlight Hours with the right bonus can be 1-in-128, Sustainability Week mons are 1-in-64, etc. The current rate is shown in the in-game info pane when a shiny is available.

How can I check which shinies are obtainable right now?

This page lists every shiny currently in the game by source — wild, raid, Field Research, eggs — refreshed data. If a mons appears here it can be encountered shiny somewhere. The rotation changes weekly with raid + event swaps; check back before a planned hunt session.

What's the difference between shiny-eligible and shiny-released?

Shiny-eligible means the shiny exists in the game's data — Niantic can flip it on with a single config change. Shiny-released means players can actually encounter it right now. Many mons sit shiny-eligible-but-locked for years before their shiny day. Our list tracks released only.

Does shiny IV differ from regular IV?

Shiny status is independent of IV. A shiny Magikarp can still roll 0 / 0 / 0 IVs — the sparkle doesn't promise stats. The exception is event-specific guaranteed-hundo legendary shinies (limited research) where both the shiny AND 15 / 15 / 15 IVs are guaranteed.

How does shiny rate change in raids vs wild?

Raid shiny rate (~1-in-20) is roughly 25× higher than wild (~1-in-500) when shiny is available. That's why coordinated raid hours are the most efficient legendary shiny hunt. Stack with weather boost on the boss's type to also raise CP / IV of the eventual catch.
