Can you catch a shiny Normal Forme Deoxys in Pokémon Go? – September 1, 2022

How good are your chances?

You only have a handful of chances to capture a legendary Pokémon in Pokémon Go. For those attempting to go after the shiny version of these Pokémon, you have even less time, and sometimes you don’t have the opportunity. Developers Niantic sometimes do not make these shiny forms available. This guide details what you need to know about if you can catch a shiny Normal Forme Deoxys in Pokémon Go.

Is there a shiny form of Normal Forme Deoxys?

We can confirm for the raids from September 1 to 13 during the Season of Light, there will be a chance to catch a shiny form Normal Forme Deoxys. You’ll have a slim chance of catching a shiny version during this time. Every Forme of Deoxys will also appear at the same time. All of them will have shiny versions available, and while they have similar color patterns in their shiny form, their overall appearance does appear different, even the Normal Forme Deoxys.

If you’re trying to catch all four versions of Deoxys, grab the Normal Forme’s shiny version. Unfortunately, you have a limited time to grab them all during these next two weeks. However, working alongside your friends to capture them all is a good way to do this. We would recommend focusing on trying to catch the Defense Forme Deoxys and the Speed Forme Deoxys, as these two are considered the superior of the four Formes. While Deoxys is a legendary Pokémon, these four forms are unique to each other.

You can find the Normal Forme Deoxys in five-star raids in your local area. You will need to make sure you have a raid pass available to take advantage of this opportunity.
