NianticEasily the best aspect of Pokémon GO’s new Water Festival event was the surprise reveal that at long last, a single shiny Pokémon had made its way into the game, shiny Magikarp. Shiny Pokémon are noticeably different in color, and have a little sparkle/shimmer effect as wellQ: Okay fine, what does a Shiny Magikarp look like? In the original games, the odds of finding a shiny Pokémon was 1 in 8192. Since Magikarp is the only shiny Pokémon in the wild so far, the numbers are probably different. Q: Will shiny Magikarp still exist after the Water Festival event is over?
