Pokemon Go Tour Hoenn is introducing some new Shiny Pokemon to the game, so we’ve put together a list to help you keep track of the Shinies you want to catch.
There’s plenty to do during Pokemon Go Tour Hoenn like completing Special Research quests and battling Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre, but Pokedex completionists will probably have something else on their mind: New Shinies!
Just like every other major event in Pokemon Go, there are going to be several Shinies making their debut during Pokemon Go Tour Hoenn. If you’re looking to catch ’em all, you’ll find a roundup of the new Shiny Pokemon below.

These new Shinies were first available for trainers who had a ticket to the Las Vegas event (February 18-19), but they will be available for players worldwide during the free global event (February 25-26).
While most of these Shinies can be found as wild spawns, encountering Shiny Jirachi will require you to purchase and complete the Wish Granted Masterwork Research guide.
The elusive Kecleon also has a very unique catch mechanic, so you might want to brush up with our Kecleon guide if you’re looking for a Shiny version.
Good luck catching those new Shinies! To get the most out of this event, make sure you check out our Pokemon Go Tour Hoenn guide.
