How To Get Shiny Primal Kyogre in Pokemon GO

Shiny Primal Kyogre in Pokemon GO

Primal Kyogre is a solo Water-type Pokemon and possesses destructive stats. The Pokemon GO legendary also has a versatile move pool complimented by its offense-centric stat spread of 353 (ATK), 268 (DEF), and 218 (STA). This fighter’s battle potential is immense, making it a highly desirable existence. But its Shiny variant stands one step above in demand. Shiny Pokemon are tough to encounter, and encountering a legendary Shiny monster is even more challenging.

Shiny Primal Kyogre is available in Pokemon GO, but for that, players first need to catch a Shiny Kyogre. Catching a Shiny Kyogre is tough since legendary Shiny monsters are considered extremely rare. But, the Primal Kyogre raid presents an opportunity to encounter Shiny Kyogre.

Once the Primal raid boss is defeated, Shiny Kyogre can spawn nearby, but it is not guaranteed. One requires winning Primal Kyogre raids multiple times to fortify the chances of encountering the Shiny legendary in Pokemon GO. Trainers can use these counters to go against the raid boss and win in quick succession.

Get Shiny Primal Kyogre in Pokemon GO

The approach of acquiring Shiny Primal Kyogre differs from the traditional ways. Once players get a Shiny Kyogre, they must initiate the Pokemon GO Primal Reversion process. This process requires a certain amount of Primal Kyogre Energy; one can collect it from Primal raids. A minimum of 400 Primal Energy is necessary to initiate the process successfully, so the best strategy would be to win multiple Primal Kyogre raids.

After gathering sufficient Primal Energy, navigate to the Shiny Kyogre summary page and select the "Primal Revert" option. Players can also initiate Primal Reversion from the Raid Battle Lobby or by selecting the Pokemon GO Battle League Battle Party. Following the process, Shiny Kyogre will gain its Primal form and turns into a Shiny Primal Kyogre. The Shiny Primal variant retains it for 8 hours before returning to its standard form.
