Pokemon GO: Shiny Bellibolt and Shiny Tadbulb guide
Tadbulb shiny – Niantic is doing the Festival of Lights again in Pokemon GO this month. You can join from Tuesday, November 7, at 10 am your time until Sunday, November 12, 2023, at 8 pm your time. There will be special bonuses, but the coolest part is that two new Pocket Monsters, Tadbulb Shiny and Bellibolt, will show up for the first time.
The first one is a pure Electric-type creature added in the ninth generation of Pokemon. It turns into Bellibolt when you use a Thunder Stone. But, in this game, things don’t change like that.
This article will tell you how to get Shiny Tadbulb and Bellibolt in the game. It will also discuss if these creatures can be shiny and share other important info.
How to find Shiny Tadbulb in Pokemon GO?
During the Festival of Lights event, you can come across Tadbulb in these ways:
- Finding it in the wild
- Meeting Tadbulb in Field Research tasks
- Running into it more often with Incense
- Finding it through Timed Research tasks
Meeting Tadbulb in the wild
This new Ele-Tadpole Pokemon is showing up for the first time, and the simplest way to find it is through wild encounters. It might not happen a lot, but if you’re lucky, you might stumble upon it while playing the game outside.
Along with Tadbulb, you’ll find Pikachu, Vulpix, Ponyta, Magnemite, Litwick, Voltorb, Slugma, Electrike, Mareep, Chinchou, and Morelull in the wild. There’s a possibility for these encounters to be shiny. However, because they’re regular appearances, spotting their rare versions might be tough. Your odds of encountering a shiny version for most of these special event Pokemon are one in 500.
Field Research tasks:
Throughout the Festival of Lights event, you’ll get special Field Research tasks. Finishing these tasks can reward you with chances to encounter Tadbulb in the game.
Timed Research encounter:
As part of the Festival of Lights, you’ll receive special Timed Research. Finishing this research could lead to encountering Tadbulb in the game. Additionally, you’ll snag an exclusive shirt for your in-game avatar as part of the event.

Where’s the best place to find shiny Tadbulb?
