You can encounter Shiny Wooper in the following ways during the Wooper Community Day:

  • Wild Encounters
  • Field Research tasks
  • Paid Research tasks
  • Special encounters after beating Wooper and Paldean Wooper in four-star raids

Wild encounters with Shiny Wooper

If you want to get a guaranteed Shiny Wooper during the Wooper Community Day event, the easiest way would be through a wild encounter. Since it is being featured in the Community Day event, every Wooper spawn will have a 1-in-25 chance of being shiny.

The probability of Wooper being shiny once out of 25 encounters is not fixed. The shiny odds will vary depending on your luck.


Shiny Wooper from Field Research tasks

You will get Field Research tasks during the Wooper Community Day event. Completing these tasks will land you possible encounters with Shiny Wooper.


Shiny Wooper from Paid Research tasks

You can buy a Community Day Special Research story called “A Muddy Buddy” for US$1. Each step of this Special Research will give you an encounter with Wooper or its Paldean variant. Both of these creatures can be shiny.


Special encounters with Shiny Wooper after four-star raids

Once you beat Wooper or its Paldean variant in four-star raids after the Wooper Community Day event, it will spawn a bunch of Wooper and Paldean Wooper around the Gym for 30 minutes. These spawns will have the same shiny odds of 1-in-25.

Just like Shiny Wooper, the probability of Paldean Wooper being shiny depends on your luck.
