But when you do encounter a Stakataka, can it be Shiny?\u00a0 Stakataka is one of multiple Ultra Beasts that will only appear in five-star Pok\u00e9mon Go raids, limiting its availability to monthly raid rotations or special events. The Rampart Pok\u00e9mon has an additional restriction\u2014location-based exclusivity. So while you test your luck with finding a Stakataka raid, here is everything you need to know about its Shiny availability.\u00a0 Can you get Shiny Stakataka in Pok\u00e9mon Go? Stakataka is not available as a Shiny in Pok\u00e9mon Go. This is another instance of a Pok\u00e9mon being added to the game and not having its alternate color variant available from day one. And even if it was, the game\u2019s Shiny odds might not play out in your favor, however.\u00a0 Stakataka was added to Pok\u00e9mon Go on May 23 as part of the Ultra Space Wonders event. Blacephalon and Naganadel also debuted during that event, with the usual mixed Shiny availability at the time. And because Stakataka is an Eastern Hemisphere-exclusive raid encounter, that means you need to have a friend invite you to a Remote Raid if you aren\u2019t capable of finding one yourself. Blacephalon shares the same problems regarding availability, though it is a bit more highly sought after based on its moveset. Meanwhile, Stakataka might not be the best Pok\u00e9mon for competitive use, especially when you look at other Ultra Beasts in Pok\u00e9mon Go, but at least you can finally catch one.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Stakataka-Pokemon-TCG.jpeg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1238994"}],"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\/1706"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1238994"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1238994\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1239447,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1238994\/revisions\/1239447"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1213974"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1238994"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1238994"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1238994"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1238994"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1238994"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1238994"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1238994"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
