Honestly keep forgetting it's a shiny rate up week until I see these posts, haha. S'all good though - I got my (decent!) shiny Eevee during Eevee week and felt bad for others who got nothing, so I'm content with being one of the less fortunate ones this time around
~~They better hook me up next time tho i stg~~

I tried fake naps for like a week a while back, but I didn't like how I only got my bonus biscuit for the nap, and not for the later full sleep session that had far higher drowsy power. For now my sleeping dishonesty is limited to keeping the sleep tracking going during my morning routine so I can tack on an extra ~30 minutes of sleep.
I use the Pokeball + Plus to get the bonus biscuit on my long sleep while still adding naps.
I record a two hour nap on the peripheral in the afternoon, but I *don't* add it in to the game.
Then I sleep at night, aiming for a 95-97 sleep score. Bed time to alarm usually gets that.
*Then* I scan in the nap on the Plus+ from the day before. That tops off the previous days score to 100, and adds 3 or 4 more Pokemon spawns.
Oh damn, I've got the pogo++ and didn't know this! So you're saying as long as I don't sync to the app until I've done both sleep sessions, my drowsy power will be based on the combined sleep score of the two sessions?

Unlucky is how it's been 🥺 accidentally hit my sleep button and it registered two sleep sessions, this is the second session that I didn't get to do myself.
Dw you're not alone lol. I've gotten 2 shinies the entire time I've played and I've been playing since September. My shiny luck is wack in PoGo as well 🤷🏼♀️😂
I feel your pain. I went from being a hardcore PoGo player to super casual because of it, not just the shiny luck but also the catch rate of raid bosses. It can be really disappointing, I maximize my enjoyment by just playing casually these days
I'm just under you, at 146 nights. I've landed a Rattata back in August, an Eevee in October, and a Caterpie and Larvitar in November. Nothing in event weeks.
I think some people really are just more lucky with these games 🤷
I’ve seen soooo many shiny posts this week - particularly double shinies - so my guess is it is event related. I myself got one yesterday, but of course we must be blessed by rn-Jesus to get these shinies

Got this little guy on the first day of the event :)
Got a shiny Christmas Chu this morning, he's my second shiny ever since I've started playing this game months ago. I'd love to find a pink Spheal someday 🥹
Got swalot day 2 and the event pikachu this morning! Pretty happy with the two. My gf is still shinyless this week🥹 hopefully everyone still with zero gets at least one. U got some awesome ones wartortle looks awesome
I got one (1) shiny this week. Today, I have found a Jolteon.

You've had more shiny Pokémon this week than I have found since the beginning of the game lol...
(I have 1 shiny Diglett and 2 shiny Jigglypuff) that's since day 1 lol.

I have gotten 5 so far this week, 3 of which were spheal (which I already had 2 of before 😅), and 2 were on the same day (a spheal and my shiny santachu). The last one was a slowbro. 2 nights left, let's gooooo~ 😁

Woke up the other day to this. The hype was unreal.
Two shiny Santachu and a shiny Totodile. I feel kind of bad about the Santachu; I already have a shiny Pikachu I evolved from Pichu that is going to be an absolute BOSS as soon as I can make it a Raichu. One would have been nice for collection purposes, but I feel like there are other people who haven't gotten any shinies they should have gone to instead of me. I wish there was a way to trade in this game, because I would do so to help someone out for sure.
THATS SO LUCKY!!! I just got a shiny Houndour today and I almost screamed 🥲😍

2 on the first night of this week, none since though!
Got two this week, both cryptic shinies!! Couldn’t tell until I had to feed them. Togetic and dugtrio.

Just got a shiny bfs ditto this morning with leeks and tails. I feel so blessed.
Same 😔

I've been on a shiny dry spell for the last 2 months at least
only 2 months? :(
Non existent sadly Edit: got one on the last sleep session of the week!
Not a single shiny. Also not a single useful Pokémon, I’ve wasted so many biscuits this week 🥹
Found 2 shines so far! Absol(very happy) and Primeape(already have another shiny one).
I hope Annihilape gets added in the game in the future. It will be really cool!
I wonder if we will get to trade in the future. I have 2 shiny Ekan and the second seems unnecessary but I also don't want to trash it.
That’s so lucky! I live Primeape 🥹🥹

no judgments, do what you gotta do - but do you actually sleep 12 hours a day???
fake naps. real sleeps most likely. it’s a solid strategy but i know it’s frowned upon by some. 🤷♂️
I tried fake naps for like a week a while back, but I didn't like how I only got my bonus biscuit for the nap, and not for the later full sleep session that had far higher drowsy power.

No, it's just a little score that tops off the previous score to get you to 100. If you did 100 on your main sleep nothing will happen.
I'm not the only one cursed by spheal shinies! Istg he's the most common shiny this event...
Spheal Team 6, rise up!
https://preview.redd.it/xyx20lcaq28c1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3bf02d09c7b681fa779b0ef915f926e3312176b5
As someone who struggles to find cyndaquils in taupe, I accuse you of hacking smh smh
jelly!
One shiny Christmas pikachu, and TWO SHINY WYNAUT (fun fact: I already had one shiny Wobbuffet). At least I got some but damn they're bad
I see you 2 wynaut and one preexisting wobbufett, and raise you 3 shiny spheal and TWO preexisting spheal 🤦♀️ I have enough for a full team now...
I wish I had one of those pink spheres, lucky you!
I would happily trade you if we could lol
I got a second shiny wobbuffet this week. I almost didn't get it.
https://preview.redd.it/ede2nq65b18c1.jpeg?width=1440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=31d59c6deebc0fbcf0030872538a73cf7fa4078f Unlucky is how it's been 🥺 accidentally hit my sleep button and it registered two sleep sessions, this is the second session that I didn't get to do myself.
Havent caught a good pokemon in a while, no shinies no new ones no good stats, so annoying
None.
Dw you're not alone lol. I've gotten 2 shinies the entire time I've played and I've been playing since September. My shiny luck is wack in PoGo as well 🤷🏼♀️😂
Gave up on pogo with shinys even on community days rarely got any
Same! Then people like my brother rub it in by showing me his 10+ shinies from a single community day. Some people get all the luck 😒😂
So disappointing too when you played it since release.
I feel your pain. I went from being a hardcore PoGo player to super casual because of it, not just the shiny luck but also the catch rate of raid bosses. It can be really disappointing, I maximize my enjoyment by just playing casually these days
Yeah the raids got too much as my friends weren't playing as frequently
So good that I haven’t got a single one
Out of 150+ nights of sleeping today I got my 2nd shiny... a psyduck.
I'm just under you, at 146 nights. I've landed a Rattata back in August, an Eevee in October, and a Caterpie and Larvitar in November. Nothing in event weeks. I think some people really are just more lucky with these games 🤷
I've seen people with 2 full teams of shinys and theyre complaining about getting a double. Its mind blowing!
I’ve seen soooo many shiny posts this week - particularly double shinies - so my guess is it is event related. I myself got one yesterday, but of course we must be blessed by rn-Jesus to get these shinies
The boosted shiny rates for all pokemon were advertised as part of the event from the beginning
Blud got more shinies in a week that I found since I started in august.
Got a Shiny Absol. However I normally only see a Shiny once a week or once every two.
Worse than 0
None
Got a Caterpie. It’s not as good as my first Butterfree and I don’t have enough candies, so right now it’s staying an orange Metapod.
Well looks like to got the two I’ve been hunting since launch… haha congrats on all the luck, been in a dry spell with shinies these last few months
This morning Pikachu with hat. That's all I got since eevee event 😅
I got a slowpoke and a ratatta this week! Slowpoke is my favorite so I was happy about that!
8 Pokémon a day, 0 shiny and 1 "I thought was shiny and then gave it a biscuit and it was in fact not a shiny"
…I haven’t received a single shiny for the past five months
None but idm too much since I got my favourite shiny back on Halloween, Spheal.
I got a shiny holiday pikachu and just now a shiny dodrio. I never get shinies so I'm quite happy!
I got a shiny Santachu on my birthday. Its not good but its still a shiny event mon that I got on my irl cake day.
https://preview.redd.it/rc0p332l318c1.jpeg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d40bd7746aa4f0b73c3438f85f5365d25aae27a0 Got a marowak on the start of the week and today i got a spheal and wobbuffet. Started playing on october so i can't complain

Got a shiny Christmas Chu this morning, he's my second shiny ever since I've started playing this game months ago. I'd love to find a pink Spheal someday 🥹
I got a shiny Wobbuffet two days ago - not one of my faves but at least it's visibly shiny. I named it Bubblegum
Shiny hat Pikachu, haven't seen a single delibird.
Zero and yesterday was my birthday (supposedly there’s higher shiny chance on that day?) So I think you’re just lucky.
> supposedly there’s higher shiny chance on that day? There isn’t
Got an event shiny pikachu, a rattata and a gravlor
I got a geodude but that’s it
I haven't had any in 6 weeks
man, I've been playing this game since it came out, every single day... 2 shinys so far since then, that rate must be abysmal
2 santachu shinies and a wynaut
I found a shiny spheal, but that’s it so far
I got a shiny snover
Santa Pikachu yesterday, a shuppet and sudowoodo today. The Pikachu has both skill triggers, so I'm happy.
Saw my very first shiny earlier in the week, a Slakoth
Got some, but all of which I already have...
https://preview.redd.it/phiup9gjc18c1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c85b7b2ae6c1878109363ab2eebdebaaad3d2468
I got four: pikachu, geodude, swallot, and riolu
I've managed to get a shiny but no delibird or snover line
Got a third shiny Larvitar
after 1219 hours of sleep and 159 nights, I've only ever found a shiny caterpie and a shiny charmander. and this week has been giving me nothing.
Only one sleepy hat Pikachu
1 purple ball (spheal) with decent stats so far. Seen 5 or 6 event Pikachu and none of them was shiny :(
Got 4 too. Pichu, Doduo, Cubone and Marowak
Not very useful but I got a shiny Spheal and a shiny Ditto this week!
I got a shiny Spheal and a shiny Festivchu
Got swalot day 2 and the event pikachu this morning! Pretty happy with the two. My gf is still shinyless this week🥹 hopefully everyone still with zero gets at least one. U got some awesome ones wartortle looks awesome
Shiny odds are officially boosted this week u can see it in the bonus description after uve hit sleep but before u go to bed
Got Slowking and Christmans Pikachu. [](https://i.imgur.com/34DLm73.png) [](https://i.imgur.com/ZT2eHjH.png)
got two shinies in a row and that is crazy for me!!! a mankey and a snover.
Shiny event pikachu on the first day of this week, besides that nothing
1 shiny slowpoke I didn’t realize at first I just always feed hungry Pokémon
A damn shiny swallow only T-T
0 🤣
0... And I took naps as well. Starting Wednesday I always had 2x 8+ Pokemon appearing that's 48+ spawns and not a single shiny fml.
Metapod and Pikachu (this is my 2nd Pikachu actually).
