While Shiny West Shellos can be found in the Western Hemisphere, trainers can find Shiny East Shellos in the East Hemisphere. The Pokemon GO Stunning Styles occasion will feature East Shellos and its Shiny form as a one-star raid boss.

However, it is worth noting that you have a higher chance of coming across an East Shellos than its Shiny version, even if its odds in this event are boosted.

3) Shiny Decidueye

The Pokemon GO Stunning Styles event features a powerful creature called Shiny Decidueye in three-star raids. It is considered one of the highly desired monsters in the game. This is because it sports a fantastic bird-like design and competes in the Ultra League with many formidable forces in a toe-to-toe manner.

Hisuian Shiny Decidueye will also appear as a three-star boss during Pokemon GO Stunning Styles. We believe that Shiny Decidueye arguably has better combat capabilities and design. However, many fans love how Hisuian Shiny Decidueye looks and prefer it over its regional variant.

Counters to Shiny Decidueye

• Mega Rayquaza: Air Slash and Dragon Ascent
• White Kyurem: Ice Fang and Ice Burn
• Shadow Salamence: Fire Fang and Fly
• Shadow Heatran: Fire Spin and Magma Storm
• Reshiram: Fire Fang and Fusion Flare

Pokemon GO Stunning Styles will bring back all four forms of Shiny Castform: Normal, Sunny, Rainy, and Snowy. Each appears in a different weather condition. This event will make the regular Castform forms appear in greater numbers in the wild in their respective weather conditions.

Collectors who want to encounter a particular Shiny Castform form should look for it in specific weather conditions. The Sunny weather increases the spawn rate of Sunny Castform. Additionally, trainers can activate the Lure Modules and Incense to attract more encounters to find a Shiny one.
