Pokemon GO has multiple Pokemon and Shiny debuts for most in-game events. Shiny Gothita, Shiny Gothorita, and Shiny Gothitelle are featured monsters in the Fashion Week 2023 event.

With Shiny Gothita, Pokemon GO players can also get Fashionable Dragonite, Fashionable Wooper, Fashionable Quagsire, and their Shiny variants for the first time. The Fashion Week 2023 event starts on November 15 at 10 AM and ends on November 19 at 8 PM Local Time. Starting from this event, one can encounter Shiny Gothita in the wild and through in-game Eggs, with a boosted spawn rate in featured events. That said, this guide explores all the ways to get Shiny Gothita, Shiny Gothorita, and Shiny Gothitelle in the game.

How To Get Shiny Gothita In Pokemon GO
Gothita and its Shiny variant are often featured as a wild spawn and Egg hatch; the same is true with the latest event. Pokemon GO players have multiple ways of getting the monster, and Gothita also experiences a spawn rate boost during events featuring it. The boosted spawn rate might help players catch up to its Shiny odds and encounter Shiny Gothita faster.
Wild Spawns: Shiny Gothita
While featured events increase the wild spawn rate of Gothita, encountering Shiny Gothita is still a challenge. Although some players may encounter Shiny Gothita faster, some may not; the Shiny encounter isn’t guaranteed. One has to encounter multiple wild Gothita to catch up to its Shiny odds.
Players can use different Pokemon GO items and the Weather Boost effect to increase the spawn rate. The more a Pokemon spawns, the faster players might get to its Shiny spawn odds.
Pokemon GO Incense attaches to the player and increases the spawn rate as the player traverses. Lure Modules attach to a PokeStop or Gym and significantly boost the Pokemon spawn rate nearby. Regarding Weather Boost, the effect can increase monster spawn rate in areas with particular weather conditions.
Gothita experiences a boost in its performance and spawn rate in windy weather, so hunting around areas with such weather conditions is best. Players can also simultaneously use Pokemon GO Lure Modules and Incense with the Weather Boost.
Look for a PokeStop or Gym around areas with windy weather and attach a Lure Module to it. Once players attach the Lure Module, all that’s left is to activate an Incense and walk around that area. This strategy stacks their effects, significantly increasing Gothita’s spawn rate, especially during featured events.
5 KM Eggs: Shiny Gothita
Pokemon GO 5 KM Eggs offers an encounter with Gothita and Shiny Gothita. Hatching numerous 5 KM Eggs is also an excellent strategy to get a Shiny Gothita. The more Gothita players hatch, the closer and faster they might get to its Shiny hatch odds. One should also note that the Egg hatches have a greater chance of being Shiny than wild spawns.

The cost for evolving a Shiny Gothita into a Shiny Gothorita is 25 Pokemon GO Candy, and the requirement to evolve a Shiny Gothorita into a Shiny Gothitelle is 100 Candy.
