Dudunsparce, the evolution of one of the Rarest Pokemon has arrived in Pokemon GO, and players are wondering about the two available forms of this Normal-type species. One is the Two-Segment form (which is the usual), and the other one, the rarest, is the Three-Segment form, which has an extra body section between the head and the tail.

In terms of rarity, Three-Segmented Dudunsparce is quite hard to get. Even in the games where it originally debuted, Pokemon Scarlet & Violet, players had to try and try before getting one for their collection. This guide will help players know how to get Three-Segment Dudunsparce in Pokemon Go, and what the odds are of getting one, including if it can be shiny.

What are the Chances of Getting a Three-Segment Dudunsparce in Pokemon GO?

Dudunsparce In Pokemon Scarlet & Violet

Similar to other species like Tandemaus & Maushold, Dudunsparce will only reveal its special form when evolving it from its previous stage. So, the first thing players need to do is get a Dunsparce and enough Dunsparce Candy (50) to evolve it. Now, the odds for getting a Three-Segment Dudunsparce after evolving Dunsparce are 1 in 100 (or 1%), which is extremely low but not as much as some of the rarest species that spawn once on a blue moon.

Luckily for players, Dunsparce and its evolution are currently being featured in the Completely Normal Event, which lasts until Saturday 27, 2025, at 8 PM Local Time. Players need to hurry up and catch lots of Dunsparce and evolve them into Dudunsparce to get a Three-Segment form Dudunsparce.

Did you know? Dunsparce and Dudunsparce are inspired by the Mythical Creature of the Japanese Folklore: The Tsuchinoko (also known as Bachi Hebi in northeast Japan). According to legend, this cryptid is a tricky creature who loves to hide, and it's rare to see it near urban landscapes. It resembles a flat, round snake with the ability to talk and trick travelers. Hunting for Tsuchinoko has become a popular form of entertainment in rural Japan, especially for tourists.

Now, the ultimate catch for Pokemon Go players would be a Shiny Three-Segment Dudunsparce, but that will require grinding the event a lot. Still, if players want to try their luck, here are a few tips to increase their chances of getting a Shiny Dudunsparce and thus, a Shiny Three-Segmented Dudunsparce:

  • Use Incense or Adventure Incense to attract more event Pokemon.
  • Gather around Poke Stops with Active Lure Modules, since these will increase the number of Pokemon appearing.
  • Use Dialga's Roar of Time to extend the duration of Incenses and other consumables.
  • Complete Field Research Tasks (alone or in Party) to get more encounters with event themed Pokemon (including Dunsparce).
  • Remember that the shiny odds for Dunsparce during its featured event are increased. After the event ends, it will return to normal (1 in 122).
