How to get Shiny Dedenne in Pokemon GO
The Shiny version of Dedenne has been elusive to Pokemon GO for a while, but is finally heading to the mobile game. Here is how to catch the Electric-Fairy Type in the Shiny Dedenne Pokemon GO debut.
Dedenne, the Gen-Six Antenna Pokémon, was added to Pokemon GO some time ago. Finally, the Shiny version of the Pokemon is finally coming to the game as well. Here is how to get the adorable Electric-Fairy Type in the Shiny Dedenne debut.
When does Shiny Dedenne debut?
The Shiny Dedenne debut will be on Tuesday, 10 January at 8AM local time - as part of the Twinkling Fantasy event. Not only will you have the chance to encounter and catch a Shiny Dedenne for the first time, but a bunch of other particular Pokemon will be appearing more in the wild as well.
Until Twinkling Fantasy ends on Monday, 16 January 2023 at 10PM local time, you'll be able to encounter more of the following wild Pokemon:
- Clefairy (chance for Shiny)
- Clefable
- Jigglypuff (chance for Shiny)
- Dratini (chance for Shiny)
- Togetic (chance for Shiny)
- Marill (chance for Shiny)
- Bagon (chance for Shiny)
- Deino (chance for Shiny)
- Dedenne (chance for Shiny)
- Goomy
- Noibat (chance for Shiny)
How can you get a Shiny Dedenne?
If you don't spot a Dedenne on your local Pokemon GO map right away, you may also encounter one as a reward for Twinking Twilight's event-themed Field Research tasks. The other Pokemon you may encounter as a reward for these tasks are Clefairy, Dratini, Bagon, and Goomy.
Throughout this event and beyond, getting a Shiny Dedenne will come down to luck, but it's a numbers game at the end of the day. Keep trying, and a Shiny version of the delightful Pocket Monster will soon be yours.
