Some appear during special events at specific times, and with Rotom making an appearance, many players might wonder about their chances of catching a Shiny one. Rotom is a unique Pok\u00e9mon to Pok\u00e9mon Go and has appeared in distinct forms throughout the years. Now, Rotom has a chance to make an official appearance during the Pok\u00e9mon Go Tour: Sinnoh event, alongside several others also making their debut. This is Rotom's first appearance in Pok\u00e9mon Go, so players will be wondering if we can expect to see a Shiny version and catch it. Does Rotom have a Shiny version in Pok\u00e9mon Go? It looks like Rotom, appearing for its Pok\u00e9mon Go debut, will indeed have a Shiny version available. Right now, we only have the confirmation from a single Twitter post, shared by PoGoCentral, who regularly shares these details based on information they receive from others in the community during live events. They do suggest those not attending the Los Angeles in-person event hold off redeeming and using the ticket until the Global event for the best chance of encountering a Shiny Rotom, but we can't confirm if that's the case or not. The image has also been reshared on Reddit. As it stands, only one person has the Shiny version and shared it with everyone else. We can expect to hear more confirmations as additional players unlock the Ghost in the Machine research, which partially leaked during the Carnival of Love event. The Ghost in the Machine research code is available to any Pok\u00e9mon Go player who redeems it, which appears somewhere at the Rose Bowl Stadium. Those attending the in-person Pok\u00e9mon Go Tour: Sinnoh event are the ones who need to share it, unlocking the research for everyone else. Leading up to the event, Niantic teased that Rotom would cause trouble, and it looks like the standard form is here to take charge. The first Rotom that showed up was the Wash Rotom for Pok\u00e9mon Go Fest 2020. The Pok\u00e9mon Go Tour: Sinnoh event is the first time the standard version has appeared, and we're glad to see we likely don't have to wait for a follow-up chance to encounter a Shiny version. Given how limited this Pok\u00e9mon has been, we're happy the Shiny version is happening for launch\u2014but we're still waiting for the Heat and Fan Rotom forms to appear in future Pok\u00e9mon Go events. The larger, global event for Pok\u00e9mon Go Tour: Sinnoh happens from Feb. 24 to 25. You'll want a ticket to participate in it, where you can encounter and catch Origin Forme Dialga and Origin Forme Palkia. Like Rotom, these two only appear for a limited time, so grab your friends and take them down quickly to add these Pok\u00e9mon to your collection. We wish you the best of luck in catching a Shiny Rotom.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Rotom-in-Pokemon-Go-Is-it-Shiny.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1134748"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2139"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1134748"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1134748\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1134952,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1134748\/revisions\/1134952"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1134792"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1134748"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1134748"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1134748"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1134748"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1134748"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1134748"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1134748"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
