One of the greatest challenges inPokemon GOis collecting all of the shiny Pokemon that the game has to offer, as shiny Pokemon encounters are incredibly rare. HardcorePokemon GOplayers who enjoy hunting down all of the shiny Pokemon in the game will soon have another one to look for, as the popular augmented reality mobile game will be adding two more shiny Pokemon to the mix.
As reported by Pokemon GO Hub,Pokemon GOwill be adding shiny Vullaby to the game at 12:00am local time on Tuesday, November 9, and of course, that will include the shiny version of its evolved form, Mandibuzz, as well. Vullaby is thePokemon GOField Research breakthrough reward for November 2021, so players will have a chance to get a shiny Vullaby through that or by completing new Field Research tasks that have Vullaby as the reward.

IfPokemon GOplayers manage to get their hands on a shiny Vullaby, evolving it into a shiny Mandibuzz shouldn’t be all that difficult. While there are some more demanding Pokemon evolutions inPokemon GO, evolving Vullaby to Mandibuzz is a simple matter of collecting 50 Vullaby candy. That shouldn’t take too much time for dedicatedPokemon GOplayers to do if they complete a lot of the Field Research tasks that have Vullaby as a reward andwalk with the Pokemon as their buddy.
The addition of shiny Vullaby toPokemon GOcomes alongside some other exciting developments for the game. Shiny Vullaby’s debut is coming alongside thereturn of Team GO Rocket leader Giovanni. Giovanni will have Shadow Lugia in tow and will likely prove to be a decent challenge forPokemon GOplayers. Team GO Rocket in general will have different shadow Pokemon at their disposal, so fans should keep that in mind.
There’s been a lot of exciting new content added toPokemon GOlately, some as part of the Festival of Lights event that’s going on right now. The Festival of Lights has seen the continuation of the Hoopa Special Research quest, not to mention theintroduction of Dedenne.
Looking ahead,Pokemon GOfans can expect theHoopa Special Researchto continue, plus there will likely be a Christmas-themed event taking place in December as usual. WhilePokemon GOfans wait for more information on that front, they can look forward to fighting the returning Giovanni and catching shiny Vullaby.
