Can Popplio be Shiny in Pokemon Go?
Yes, Shiny Popplio is available in Pokemon Go. It will have a better chance of appearing in the wild during the August 2024 Community Day.
By evolving Shiny Popplio, you will receive Shiny Brionne. The same will occur with Shiny Brionne evolving into Shiny Primarina as its final evolution.
How to evolve Popplio in Pokemon Go
You must feed Popplio 25 Candy to evolve into Brionne. Next, you must give Brionne 100 Candy for it to evolve into Primarina.
The August 2024 Community Day will allow players to gather more Popplio Candy than usual, making the evolution process much more manageable.
