Hoppip, the cottonweed Pokémon from Johto, could be discovered within the wild in Pokémon Go. Sure, Hoppip could be shiny in Pokémon Go!

Hoppip and its evolutions had been really featured in a Group Day again in February 2022. When you’ve got a ton of shiny Hoppip already, it’s in all probability from there.
What’s the shiny charge for Hoppip in Pokémon Go?
As per previous analysis by the now-defunct web site The Silph Street (through Wayback Machine), the shiny charge for Pokémon on an everyday day is roughly one in 500. Hoppip just isn’t a confirmed Pokémon that will get a “permaboost” (which means that it’s a uncommon spawn and thus will get a boosted shiny charge).
What can I do to draw extra shiny Pokémon?
Not a lot, sadly. It seems to be random probability. Shiny Pokémon catch charges are set by developer Niantic, and they’re usually solely boosted throughout particular occasions like Group Days or Safari Zones, or in Legendary Raids. There are not any consumable objects that enhance shiny Pokémon charges.
The place can I discover a listing of obtainable shiny Pokémon?
LeekDuck retains a list of currently available shiny Pokémon. It’s a useful visible information that illustrates what the entire current shiny Pokémon appear to be.
