Everyone who plays Pokémon GO<\/a> knows shiny Pokémon are usually always a different color from their original form. But one player happened to come across a surprising switch in the system with a shiny Pokémon appearing differently from what most would expect it to look like in Pokémon GO.<\/p>\n

On July 10, 2022, a Redditor happened across a glitch turning a shiny Zapdos from its natural dark orange-ish yellow hue into a blue one. After coming across the Pokémon in a Raid, the player took to Reddit to post their shocking find.<\/p>\n

Glitches or bugs throughout Pokémon GO are quite common, some resulting in the Pokémon disappearing, changing color, or maybe the entire app crashing. One thing is for sure with almost every issue Pokémon GO players face, it’s usually never, ever permanent.<\/p>\n

In the Reddit post shared by Lunlimited, they acquired the shiny blue Zapdos by simply defeating the Raid. It was just an average, casual Raid wherein the Legendary Pokémon happened to be a shinier, shiny. But there wasn’t any secret move, or tapping gesture causing the glitch. <\/p>\n
