Shaymin is one of the most popular Sinnoh Legendary ‘mon due to its dual Formes, and it is finally available in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl.
The Grass-type has two Formes: Land and Sky, both with a different appearance. The former gives it a hedgehog-like look, while the latter transforms it into a deer. This makes it a fan favorite among trainers.
When Pokemon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl were first released, Shaymin was unavailable without cheating. That has now changed, though – here’s how to get it.
