Pokemon GO: Get Shiny Pidove As A Wild Encounter
Pokemon GO events like the Pidove Spotlight Hour notably increase Pidove’s wild spawn rate. The boosted spawn rate leads to more Pidove encounters, which can aid in matching its Shiny odds. Although there is no guaranteed way of a wild Shiny encounter, you can encounter numerous Pidove to increase your chances.
There are different Pokemon GO items that can increase Pidove spawn rate in the wild. Incense, Lure Modules, and Weather Boost effect can increase wild Pokemon spawn rate. Using these items simultaneously during featured events can help in encountering a Shiny Pidove.
- Pidove experiences a boost in its wild spawn rate around areas with partly cloudy and windy weather.
- You must look for a PokeStop with partly cloudy and windy weather.
- Then you should attach a Lure Module to the PokeStop.
