Pokemon GO trainers can get a Marshadow starting from the GO Fest 2024: Sendai, Japan event. The Mythical powerhouse is also known as the Gloomdweller Pokemon and shows amazing battle abilities. While there are different ways to encounter a Pokemon, currently, there is only one way to get a Marshadow encounter.

The Pokemon GO Fest 2024: Sendai, Japan event on May 30, at 6:15 AM NT, marks the debut of Marshadow in the game. The dual Fighting and Ghost-type Pokemon possesses a maximum Combat Power of 4217 with a stat spread comprising 265 ATK, 190 DEF, and 207 STA. Currently, the only way to encounter Marshadow is to complete a Special Research. That said, this guide can explore Shiny Marshadow availability while helping you complete the event-exclusive Special Research and secure a Marshadow encounter.

How To Get A Marshadow In Pokemon GO

Marshadow In Pokemon GO

While Marshadow debuted during GO Fest 2024: Sendai, you can also encounter it in Madrid and New York City events. Completing the GO Fest: 2024 Sendai Park Escapade Special Research tasks rewards you with a Marshadow encounter. In addition, you will also get to encounter Sun Crown Eevee, Klefki, and different Pokemon GO items as rewards for completion.

You can only encounter Marshadow once, even if you complete another GO Fest 2024 in-person Special Research quests featuring the monster. For those attending multiple events, only the first relevant Special Research will grant a Marshadow encounter. Other GO Fest Special Research quests will reward Marshadow Candy in Pokemon GO instead of a Marshadow encounter.

Is Shiny Marshadow Available In Pokemon GO?

Can Marshadow Be Shiny in Pokemon GO

While Marshadow debuted as a featured monster in the GO Fest 2024 event, Pokemon GO developers have yet to release its Shiny variant. Niantic rarely debuts a Mythical Pokemon and its Shiny variant. Although you cannot encounter a Shiny Marshadow currently, the developers may debut Shiny Marshadow when they add other ways of getting a Regular Marshadow in the game.
