Shiny Pokémon are rare versions of Pokémon in Pokémon go that have modified looks. They are called shiny because they generally have a slight sheen added to them that makes them stand out more than the normal versions.

Shiny Rates

Apart from the Pokémon that don’t have shiny versions in the game, every Pokémon has a base shiny rate assigned to it that tells you how often you’ll see a shiny version of them under normal circumstances. All three of these Pokémon are Legendary Pokémon, meaning their default shiny rate is about1 in 20. So, for every 20 Terrakion raids you do, you’ll probably only get one shiny version.

How to Get Shiny Terrakion

There is no way to force a Shiny Terrakion to appear. Unfortunately, the best way to get a Shiny Terrakion is to increase the number of times you encounter them. Since Terrakion is a Legendary Pokémon that is rarely in the game, this can be incredibly difficult.
