Pokemon GO Shiny Oddish, Shiny Gloom, Shiny Villeplume, Shiny Bellossom guide

The latest Pokemon GO Adventures Abound season is set to start a new event, "Oddish Research Day." Oddish and its family line is the major highlight of this occasion. Alongside that, monsters like Venonat, Bellsprout, and Roselia will be featured in wild spawns. This event focuses on the Weed Pokemon, Oddish, which trainers can encounter via the Field Research Task. There are multiple research tasks that you can complete to receive Oddish encounter rewards. The more tasks you complete, the more Oddish and its Candy you collect.

However, you have to get lucky to find one. By collecting enough Candies, you might get Shiny Gloom, Shiny Vileplume, and Shiny Bellossom.
