Feebas, the fish Pok\u00e9mon from Hoenn, can be found in the wild in Pok\u00e9mon Go<\/em>. Yes, Feebas can be shiny in Pok\u00e9mon Go<\/em><\/strong>!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

To evolve Feebas into Milotic<\/a>, you\u2019ll need to your Feebas as your buddy and walk 20 km with it. After that, you can use 100 Feebas Candy to evolve it. It may seem like a lot, but since Pok\u00e9mon Go <\/em>has no beauty stat (or contest stats in general) nor does it have Prism Scales, this is what we get. :\u2019(<\/p>\n

\n

What is the shiny rate for Feebas in Pok\u00e9mon Go?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

As per old research by the now-defunct website The Silph Road (via Wayback Machine<\/a>), the shiny rate for Pok\u00e9mon on a regular day is approximately one in 500. According to a newer spreadsheet<\/a> by some dedicated Silph researchers, Feebas is a confirmed Pok\u00e9mon that gets a \u201cpermaboost\u201d (meaning that it\u2019s a rare spawn and thus gets a boosted shiny rate), so it spawns at a one in 64 shiny rate.<\/p>\n

\n

What can I do to attract more shiny Pok\u00e9mon?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Not much, unfortunately. It appears to be random chance. Shiny Pok\u00e9mon catch rates are set by developer Niantic, and they are typically only boosted during special events like Community Days or Safari Zones, or in Legendary Raids. There are no consumable items that boost shiny Pok\u00e9mon rates.<\/p>\n

\n

Where can I find a list of available shiny Pok\u00e9mon?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

LeekDuck keeps a list of currently available shiny Pok\u00e9mon<\/a>. It\u2019s a helpful visual guide that illustrates what all of the existing shiny Pok\u00e9mon look like.<\/p>\n
