Summary
A dedicated level 50Pokémon GOplayer recently caught an incredibly rare Sewaddle. ThePokémon GOplayer’s Sewaddle is not only the shiny version of the Pokémon, but also manages to have perfect stats, increasing its rarity and making it what the community calls a ‘shundo’.
Pokémon GOhas garnered a large following since its release in 2016, with many players becomingincredibly dedicatedto the Pokémon catching mobile game. With many updates through the years,Pokémon GOhas a wealth of content available to its community alongside several milestones that are only available to the most dedicated players. One of these includes reaching level 50, something that takes an insane amount of hours and requires players to earn a ton of XP. AlthoughPokémon GOplayers that reach Level 50have often caught nearly every type of Pokémon the game has to offer, the aspect of luck and RNG in the game causes some players to go a long time before catching rare Pokémon.
Lvl. 50 Pokémon GO Player Catches Shiny Sewaddle
This is exactly the case for Reddit user Fantastic-Street-954 and one of their more recentPokémon GOcatches. The level 50 player caught a shundo Sewaddle, which is already rare to find in the game. However, this was the first shundo that this player had ever encountered, despite catching over 203,000 Pokémon within their game. The Pokémon was made even rarer, as the Sewaddle was alsoa lucky Pokémon that had been obtained from a tradewith a friend, something that is relatively uncommon for players to encounter due to RNG and requirements for lucky trades.
Catch is first of its kind, made possible by recent Community Day
ThePokémon GOplayer’s shiny Sewaddle also comes with another layer of rarity to it. The player appears to have caught this Sewaddle during the game’s recent Community Day on October 5th. ThisCommunity Day was the first time that Pokémon GO players could get shiny Sewaddleor any of its evolutions within the game. This makes the player’s shundo Pokémon even more rare, as this was the first time that this type of catch could even happen for Sewaddle.
Although Sewaddle’s Community Day has passed and the chances of finding a shiny Pokémon like this are slimmer, there are still ways thatPokémon GOplayers can find rare Pokémon within the game. Withthe current Max Out season inPokémon GO, players still have a ton of future events to participate in, several of which offer featured Pokémon and increase their encounters in the wild alongside their chances of being shiny.
