Are you excited to look for Shiny Pokemon in Pokemon Legends: Z-A? These creatures are the rarest of the rare, with unique color palettes that are vastly different from the usual variants. Naturally, finding them is no easy task, though there are a few exceptions.
What are the characteristics of Shiny Pokemon?
- Shiny Pokemon have a different color compared to the regular versions. For instance, a Shiny Pikachu tends to be orange-brown instead of yellow, whereas a Shiny Mareep is pink instead of light yellow.
- They have a sparkle icon if you check their nameplate in menus.
- When you summon them, there’s an additional flash/sparkle and sound effect that plays.

Shiny Pokemon from Wild Zones
For the most part, Shiny Pokemon in Pokemon Legends: Z-A tend to be extremely rare, as was the case in previous games in the series. If you really want to find one, then you should keep your eyes peeled when exploring Lumiose City, especially Wild Zones.
Wild Zones are specific parts of the city where you can capture Pokemon that are roaming around. The further you are in the campaign, the more Wild Zones become available, and each one has at least five species that you can catch. One of these spawns might turn out to be a Shiny, though it’s not always guaranteed.
