Pokemon GO players can get a Shiny Bagon, Shiny Shelgon, and Shiny Salamence during events featuring the monsters. Bagon is often featured in events like Community Day, which boosts the chances of encountering its Shiny variant. Players with a Shiny Bagon can later get their hands on a Shiny Shelgon and Shiny Salamence.

Bagon and Shiny Bagon share the same typing, stats, and Pokemon GO Combat Power (CP). The Dragon-type Pokemon is a wild spawn, but encountering its Shiny variant requires intense grinding. While that is the case, events featuring the monster can increase the chances of a Shiny encounter by boosting the monster’s spawn rate. Shiny Bagon might not possess much battle prowess, but grows stronger after evolving into a Shiny Shelgon and Shiny Salamence. That said, this guide explores the best method to get Shiny Bagon, Shiny Shelgon, and Shiny Salamence.

Pokemon GO: How To Get Shiny Bagon

Shiny Bagon In Pokemon GO

Pokemon GO players can encounter Shiny Bagon running rampant in the wild, especially during featured events like the Bagon Community Day. Sometimes, players can also encounter Shiny Bagon and its evolutions by completing Research tasks. While players may quickly encounter a wild Bagon, one must go through intense grinding to get a Shiny encounter.

Events featuring Bagon increase its wild spawn rate and the likelihood of a Shiny variant spawning. The boosted spawn rate can help players encounter numerous Standard Bagon, which may aid in achieving its Shiny odds. There are also some Pokemon GO items that can increase the monster spawn rate in the wild.

Pokemon GO trainers can use Incense, Lure Modules, and the Weather Boost effect to increase the wild Pokemon spawn rate around a particular area of effect. Bagon experiences a Weather Boost around areas with windy weather. One must locate a PokeStop or Gym in windy weather, attach a Lure Module, activate an Incense, and walk around. These items can work wonders when used during events that already boost Bagon's wild spawn rate.
