Shiny Shroomish Pokémon GO Release Date: Everything We Know

If you were Shiny hunting for Shroomish during Spotlight Hours, you would have been out of luck. Shiny Shroomish is not available in Pokémon GO, and has yet to be introduced. It was not featured in the latest Kanto Tour countdown event that celebrated the Hoenn region. Instead, Aron was featured as a Shiny. It's not known when Shroomish will come to Pokémon GO as a Shiny.

Shiny Pokémon are typically introduced in various events like Community Day. In general, once a Pokémon has been introduced as a Shiny in Pokémon GO, they'll be available as a Shiny in the wild beyond the event they appeared in.

Shroomish is a fan favorite from Ruby and Sapphire, and is one of my personal favorite Pokémon. It's evolved form, Breloom, held the distinction of being the only dual Grass and Fighting type in the game before Virizion was introduced in Black and White. Breloom is a decent attacker in the Ultra League, so here's hoping we'll see a Shiny Shroomish soon.
