Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf, also popularly known as the Lake Trio, are making a return to Pokemon GO as part of raids, and fans are curious to know if they can get shiny variants of the Pokemon and what the best moveset for them are.
Hailing from the Sinnoh region, the Lake Trio might not be one of the most powerful legendary trios out there, but they still can be quite Psychic-type Pokemon effective for certain teams. While Uxie is heavy on defense, Mesprit has high offensive stats, and Azelf is the most balanced out of the three. For players looking to get. A shiny one in their collection, here is what they need to know.
Pokemon GO Players Points Out Frustrating Issue When Trying to Purchase Storage Boxes
One Pokemon GO player encounters a frustrating and somewhat ironic issue when attempting to purchase the Great Storage Box from the in-game store.
How To Get Shiny Uxie, Mesprit, Azelf
For players looking for shiny Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf, the good news is that a shiny variant of the Pokemon does exist in the game. Uxie's shiny variant features a yellow and brown color tone instead of blue and yellow. Mesprit features yellow and red instead of blue and pink. And last but not least, Azelf features yellow and dark blue instead of light blue and green. If players are having trouble remembering the color combinations, they can simply look for the shiny symbol which can be found right beside their CP in Pokemon GO.
As far as catching a shiny variant goes, since these Pokemon are legendary, the standard odds of 1 in 20 apply to the Pokemon. This essentially means that every time players encounter any of the three Pokemon, there is a 1 in 20 chance that the Pokemon will be shiny. While this might sound a bit daunting, it is not quite bad considering the fact that some Pokemon have 1in 64 odds in Pokemon GO. Players usually get a shiny in about 30 to 40 encounters, so that should be what shiny hunters should be aiming for.
Best Moveset For Uxie, Mesprit and Azelf
The Psychic trio is most effective using their Psychic-type attacks, thanks to the STAB bonus they get due to it. For players looking for the best moveset, here is the best choice for all of the three Pokemon.
