Stufful actually made its Shiny debut during a Community Day event in April 2022. That said, while many players will already have a handful of Shiny Stufful from this event, it doesn’t make it any less valuable. Who can resist a golden red panda?
What is the shiny rate for Stufful in Pokémon Go?
According to old research from the now-defunct website The Silph Road (via Wayback machine), the Shiny Speed for Pokémon is about one in 500 on a normal day. Stufful is not a confirmed Pokémon that gets a “permaboost” (meaning it’s a rare spawn and thus gains an increased Shiny Speed).
What can I do to attract more Shiny Pokémon?
Not much, unfortunately. It seems to be a coincidence. Shiny Pokémon catch rates are determined by developer Niantic and usually only increase during special events like Community Days or Safari Zones, or in Legendary Raids. There are no consumables that increase the speed of Shiny Pokémon.
Where can I find a list of available Shiny Pokémon?
Leek Duck preserves a list of currently available Shiny Pokémon. It’s a handy visual guide that illustrates what all existing Shiny Pokémon look like.
