Pokémon Legends ZA Hands Players a Guaranteed Shiny Pokémon
Illumina City, Paldea region – Pokémon Legends ZA is offering players a remarkably straightforward path to obtaining a Shiny Pokémon, essentially awarding one as part of a side quest. This unique opportunity sets it apart from customary Pokémon games where encountering a Shiny is typically a matter of luck and dedicated hunting.
The guaranteed Shiny is available through side mission 017,”A Shiny Volta Lamb?” unlocked after completing main mission 08 in Illumina city. Players receive the quest from trainer Sofina, located near the entrance to Wild Sector 1.The quest tasks players with locating a shiny Volti lamb within the sector, which can be found on the only accessible roof, reached via a ladder behind the grazing area for normal Volti Lambs.
Notably, sofina only requests confirmation of the Shiny’s existence and does not intend to catch it herself, allowing the player to claim the pokémon upon quest completion.Players are cautioned to avoid defeating the Shiny Volti lamb, as a single Poké Ball opportunity is offered if it is knocked out, but a failed catch results in a lost chance. Utilizing stealth and manual saving (via the R shoulder button) are recommended to ensure a successful capture.
This ease of access to a Shiny Pokémon is generating discussion among players, with many wondering if they will actively hunt for additional Shinies or simply accept those encountered through gameplay.
