To match the theme of the Bug Out! event<\/a> in Pokémon GO, Joltik will appear in the next August Spotlight Hour. Each spotlight feature has matched a theme this month, and it doesn’t seem like Niantic plans on changing that trend as the Season of GO comes to a close.<\/p>\n

Each Spotlight Hour brings up an important question though. Can the featured Pokémon be shiny, or in this case, can you catch a shiny Joltik in Pokémon GO? This August 2022 Spotlight Hour guide will go over whether you can get the shiny form you want during the Bug-type week or if you’re out of luck.<\/p>\n

August Spotlight Hour – Can Joltik Be Shiny in Pokémon GO<\/h2>\n

Most of the Bug-type Pokémon in the game have a shiny form at this point. Generations I and II have entirely shiny rosters which make most Spotlight Hour features obvious in terms of shiny chances. However, Joltik is one of the unlucky few that has no shiny form<\/strong> available in Pokémon GO.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, there will be no shiny form to look forward to when the Spotlight Hour begins at 6 pm local time on August 16. Adding shiny Joltik during the ongoing Bug Out! event would have been a perfect opportunity for the Attaching Pokémon, but Veniped got its first shiny form introduction instead.<\/p>\n
