Summary
APokemon GOplayer showcases an impressive shiny haul from the first in-person event of GO Fest 2024. Although not as hard to find compared to the mainline games, shiny Pokemon are often elusive inPokemon GO, with players having to grind through swathes of monsters before encountering a shiny creature.
Events like the monthly community days can increase the chances of encountering shiny monsters, but they can still be bothersome for some trainers. Currently, Niantic is hosting the in-personGO Fest 2024 event in Japanthat runs until June 2, and one player has proved that luck is on their side by posting an impressive shiny haul after the first day.
A Twitter user by the name of xmaxos has managed to capture 320 shiny Pokemon during the Go Fest event in Sendai, Japan. The impressive video showcases different shiny monsters obtained during the first day of the event, including Pidgey, Staryu, and the fan-favorite, Pikachu. The clip also includes several shiny Event Pokemon, which are even harder to come by. Players can glimpse pocket monsters wearing different attire, such as Lapras wearing a scarf and Eevees adorned with sun and moon crowns.

Fans are unsurprisingly impressed with the haul, which includes a decent spread of Pokemon including the Electric and Flying-typeEmolga which made its shiny debut at Go Fest 2024. Comments to the video are positive, with many congratulating the player on the impressive collection. Some trainers are even asking xmaxos to teach them the ways of collecting so many shiny monsters.
