Greedy Gluttons Event Raids
In one-star raids, you’ll have the chance to encounter:
- Mankey
- Swinub

- Tepig
All one-star raid Pokémon will have a higher chance of appearing as shiny.
In three-star raids, you’ll have the chance to encounter:

Only Snorlax and Mawile will spawn with higher shiny chances.
For the Mega Raid, you’ll encounter Mega Gyarados, who also has the chance to spawn as shiny!
But the big boy All-Star of the event is indisputably the Ultra Beast Guzzlord, who, for the first time in Pokémon GO history, has emerged from Ultra Wormholes to terrorize trainers all over the world.
Guzzlord, the Junkivore Pokémon, is a Dark Dragon type that debuted in Pokémon Sun and Moon in the Alola Region. But now you’ll have a chance to face him in five-star raids from Tuesday, November 8 to Wednesday, November 23.

But the event doesn’t stop there! If you find a 7 km egg, you’ll be able to hatch:

All three have higher chances of being shiny, and this is the first time trainers will be able to encounter a shiny Munchlax!

All of which have a chance to be shiny!
