Much like any other editions of in-personPokemon Go Fest events, the celebration in Japan is allowing Go players to get their hands on multiple Shiny critters with highly boosted odds, as well as the introduction ofNecrozma, which can be fused to turn intoDusk Mane and Dawn Wings Necrozma.
Naturally, some players will grab themselves a healthy haul of Shiny Pocket Monsters at these sorts of events, but it seems one player has put everyone else to shame with a haul of Shiny Pokemon that borders on ridiculous.
Originally shared to X byPokemon player @xmaxosbefore being quoted by@pogo_central, a video shows the original Trainer showing off all their Shiny Pocket Monsters caught in the last two days — using the search term ‘age0,age1’ — and the haul is well over 300.
320 shiny in 2 days is mad 😨https://t.co/4OWye0sofD
One person says, “I ain’t even got 320 shinys in 2 years” before another person adds, “And here I am having found one shiny in the last two weeks.”
While Shiny rates are ordinarily boosted for the Global Pokemon Go Fest events, many players seem to think that the in-person events have even higher rates, with some comments calling them “giga-boosted” while another claims they are “doubled.”
For anyone wondering how someone could catch that many Shiny Pokemon, a few people offer their theories. “Man only checking spawns and catching only shinies” claims one person, which may be the quickest method alongside the possible use of items like thePokemon Go Plus+.

While you might not be able to manage the mountains of Shiny Pokemon shown here, if you do want to nab some for yourself, be sure to keep an eye on upcoming events like thePokemon Go Slumbering Sands event, and the upcomingPokemon Go Community DayfeaturingGoomy.
