Shiny Pokémon are added to Pokémon GO<\/a> all the time, and one of the first Alolan regionals to get an alternate scheme was Shiny Alolan Geodude. This version changes the dark-slate grey rock Pokémon into one with a deep orange hue and dark features.<\/p>\n

These colors transfer to the final evolution of Golem. So while the orange isn’t as deep, it’s still a great addition to your Shiny collection. But first, you need to find one, and with Pokémon GO’s May 2022 Community Day nudging closer, now is the perfect time to catch one.<\/p>\n

Pokémon GO – How to get a Shiny Alolan Geodude<\/h2>\n

Admittedly, catching Shiny Alolan Geodude in Pokémon GO will take a lot of luck, and there are a few ways to boost those chances under the right conditions. One of those will come down to increasing the sheer volume of catches.<\/p>\n

Any time you encounter a Geodude, you’ll have a chance for Shiny, even if it’s a low probability overall. Therefore, your chances increase proportionally with more catch attempts.<\/p>\n

When you see an Alolan Geodude on the map, you can tap and begin the encounter, and the colors will show right away. You don’t need to catch the Pokémon to see whether it’s Shiny or not.<\/p>\n
