Make Shinies Visible in the Overworld in Pokemon Go


Make Shinies Visible in the Overworld in Pokemon Go
The Issue
Dear Niantic and The Pokémon Company,
We, the undersigned, are avid fans of Pokémon GO and have been enjoying the game since its release. We love the ability to catch and collect different Pokémon, and have been especially excited about the addition of shiny Pokémon to the game.
However, we have noticed that shiny Pokémon are not visible in the overworld like regular Pokémon. This makes it difficult for us to know when a shiny Pokémon is nearby and to track down specific shiny Pokémon that we are trying to catch.
We understand that shiny Pokémon are meant to be rare and special, but we believe that making them visible in the overworld would add an extra layer of excitement and engagement to the game. It would also make it easier for players to track down specific shiny Pokémon and add a new element of strategy to the game.
We would like to point out that other Pokémon games, such as Pokémon Sword and Shield and Pokémon Let's Go, have made shiny Pokémon visible in the overworld. This feature has been well received by players and has added an extra level of enjoyment to the game. We strongly believe that implementing this feature in Pokémon GO would have a similar positive impact.
We strongly urge Niantic and The Pokémon Company to consider making shiny Pokémon visible in the overworld in a future update to Pokémon GO. This change would greatly benefit the player community and enhance the overall gameplay experience.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely, The Pokémon Go Community
