None of these mushroom Pokémon are used in raids, gyms, or PvP content. Their shinies are great, as they change from a spring coloration to a beautiful autumn red-yellow-brown.
What is the shiny rate for Morelull in Pokémon Go?
According to old research from the now defunct website The Silph Road (via Wayback Machine), the shiny rate for Pokémon on a normal day is about 1 in 500. Morelull is not a confirmed Pokémon to receive a “permaboost” (meaning it is a rare spawn and thus receives an increased shiny rate).
What can I do to attract more shiny Pokémon?
Unfortunately, not much. It seems to be random. Catch rates for Shiny Pokémon are set by developer Niantic and are usually only increased during special events such as Community Days or Safari Zones or during legendary raids. There are no consumable items that increase catch rates for Shiny Pokémon.
Where can I find a list of available Shiny Pokémon?
LeekDuck maintains a list of currently available Shiny Pokémon. It’s a helpful visual guide that shows what all existing Shiny Pokémon look like.
