Hey there, Pokémon Go players! There’s a new character in town – Poipole. This purple poison-type Pokémon is a rare and powerful creature that can change into Naganadel. But how do you catch Poipole in Pokémon Go? And can it be shiny? Let’s find out!
Catching Poipole in Pokémon Go
Unlike other Ultra Beasts that you can find in five-star raids, Poipole is not available in the wild or eggs. The only way to get Poipole in Pokémon Go is by completing the World of Wonders Special Research. This research is free for all players and is available from March 1 to June 1, 2024. It has five pages of tasks and rewards.
To get Poipole in Pokémon Go, you need to complete the first page of the World of Wonders Special Research. The tasks are:
- Catch 20 Pokémon (reward: 10 Poké Balls)
- Spin 10 PokéStops (reward: 7 Pinap Berries)
- Transfer 10 Pokémon (reward: 7 Razz Berries)
Once you finish these tasks, you will get 803 XP and an encounter with Poipole. You can catch Poipole with any Poké Ball, and it will not run away from the encounter. You can also use berries to increase your chances of catching it.
Evolving Poipole in Pokémon Go
Poipole can evolve into Naganadel, a poison and dragon-type Ultra Beast, if it likes you a lot. To make Poipole like you, you need to:
- Walk with Poipole as your buddy (reward: 3 hearts per day)
- Feed Poipole berries (reward: 1 heart per berry, up to 3 per day)
- Play with Poipole (reward: 1 heart per day)
- Take a snapshot of Poipole (reward: 1 heart per day)
- Battle with Poipole (reward: 1 heart per day)
- Visit a new place with Poipole (reward: 1 heart per day)
You need to get 70 hearts with Poipole to evolve it into Naganadel. You can check your progress by tapping on the buddy icon on the map screen and then on the heart icon on the top left corner of the buddy screen.
Can Poipole be shiny in Pokémon Go?
Right now, Poipole cannot be shiny in Pokémon Go. But who knows? Maybe Niantic will release shiny Poipole in the future. For now, you can only get the regular Poipole in Pokémon Go.
So, there you have it! Poipole is a unique and powerful Ultra Beast that you can get in Pokémon Go by completing the World of Wonders Special Research. You can also evolve it into Naganadel by increasing your friendship with it. Remember, Poipole is not available in the wild or in raids, and it cannot be shiny yet. Don’t miss this chance to add this rare and cool Pokémon to your collection. Complete the World of Wonders Special Research before it ends on June 1, 2024. We hope you found this article helpful.
