Pokemon GO <\/strong>is known for the many events the game holds. More often than not, you will be playing the game during an event rather than it being a normal day. These events create more opportunities for you to catch shiny Pokemon<\/a> in the game. So having so many events is not necessarily a bad thing.<\/p>\n

The newest and upcoming event in Pokemon GO will be the Lunar New Year<\/a> event. Because it is the year of the rabbit, rabbit Pokemon like Buneary<\/strong> will be one of the many featured Pokemon that will appear more often in the game. But does that mean that you can catch yourself a shiny Buneary in Pokemon GO?<\/p>\n

Will There Be A Shiny Buneary In Pokemon GO?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Pokemon GO Lunar New Year event will be starting soon. (Picture: Niantic)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In Pokemon GO, Niantic<\/a> is helping players bring in the Year of the Rabbit with an in-game celebration. Rabbit Pokemon like Buneary and Bunnelby<\/strong> will appear more often in the game, giving you a lot of opportunities to catch them. But does that necessarily mean that Buneary has a chance to be a shiny Pokemon in Pokemon GO?<\/p>\n

In this case, yes, you will have a chance to catch shiny Buneary<\/strong> in Pokemon GO during the Lunar New Year event. Not only will you have a chance to catch a shiny Buneary, but you will also actually have increased odds of getting Shiny Buneary as well. Buneary is one of the featured Pokemon, so the shiny encounter rate for this Pokemon is increased.<\/p>\n

How Do I Catch Shiny Buneary In Pokemon GO?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Finding Buneary in the wild is a good way to find a shiny version of that Pokemon. (Picture: Niantic)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Now that you know that Buneary has a chance to be shiny in Pokemon GO, you will now need to come up with a game plan to actually catch it for yourself. There are actually a couple of methods that you can utilize during the Lunar New Year event. The first is to find it randomly in the wild. Encounter as many Buneary as you can, and you might get lucky and find a shiny one eventually.<\/p>\n

Another method that you can utilize is completing the Field Research Tasks<\/strong> during the Lunar New Year event. Some of these tasks will feature Buneary as a reward for completion, with a chance of it being a shiny Pokemon as well. Just remember that you can only get these tasks during the Lunar New Year event, so do your best not to miss out on them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
