How to Get Shiny Virizion

Find Virizion at the Special Scan Hyperspace Wild Zones

Virizion can be found in Hyperspace Wild Zones that are detected via a special scan. You can run a special scan from Philippe at the Rust Syndicate.

You need to earn 25,000 Hyperspace Survey Points to run a scan, which you can get from completing tasks while inside Hyperspace Wild Zones.

Once you enter a Hyperspace Wild Zone that is detected via a special scan, you will receive a notification from Mable in your Rotom phone to inform you whether the zone contains Virizion.

Shiny Virizion Location

1
From the starting location, head right and follow the road until you reach an area with a frozen river on the right side.
2
Virizion Step 2
When you arrive at this spot, save the game. You can load from this spot if you run out of calories and a Shiny Virizion has not spawned during the run.
3
To start shiny hunting Virizion, start from the manhole and run south towards the stairs at the back. Continue running back and forth from these locations to spawn and despawn Virizion. You can check if the Pokemon has respawned when you hear its cry.
4
When you have 600 calories remaining, go and check Virizion in its location. Start from the manhole, follow road, turn right after the scaffolding and climb the ladder.
5
Virizion Step 5
If it is a Shiny Virizion , save your game first then drop down to catch the Shiny Pokemon.

If it is not a Shiny Virizion, restart the game and try again.

Shiny Virizion Hunting Tips

Make a Donut with Level 3 Sparkling Power: Fighting

Make sure to create a donut that has Sparkling Power: Fighting (Lv. 3). This increases the chances of obtaining a Shiny Virizion when combined with the Shiny Charm.

Use a Hyper Haban Berry to get the highest chance of rolling Sparkling Power and Encounter Power. Both effects are useful for shiny hunting due to it reducing the time a Pokemon respawns after being KOed.

Save Before Attempting to Capture Shiny Pokemon

Can Shiny Pokemon Flee

Once you see a Shiny Virizion, they will not despawn if you don't interact with them. However, some Pokemon may get nervous and flee, which does despawn them, so you should save your game before you attempt to catch the Shiny Pokemon.

Shiny Hunting Guide

Get the Shiny Charm From Mable's Research

Shiny Charm Reward

You can get the Shiny Charm as a milestone reward in Mable’s Research. The Shiny Charm increases the chances of encountering Shiny Pokemon.

Complete her requests to raise your level to Level 50 to receive the Shiny Charm.
