Obtaining Tyrunt in Pokemon Go & its Shiny form

Tyrunt, the miniature T-Rex resembling Pokemon, will be highlighted in the 2024 Pokemon Go Adventure Week. Here is a guide on how to capture it and the possibility of encountering its Shiny form.

This charming fossil Pokemon, a combination of Rock and Dragon types, first appeared in the Kalos region alongside its fellow fossil, Amaura. Since their debut in Pokemon Go, they have been known to be rare spawns.

Fortunately, the Adventure Week event has once again made its way back into Niantic’s game, with a special emphasis on fossils. This presents a great opportunity for players to catch and evolve Tyrunt, and potentially even find its rare Shiny variant. Therefore, it is important to have all the necessary information for this event.

How to Catch Tyrunt in Pokemon Go

Currently, there are four distinct methods for players to encounter Tyrunt in Pokemon Go.

  • During a wild encounter.
  • The creature hatched from a 10 km Egg.
  • During the Adventure Week 2024 event, a hatch from a 7 km Egg.
  • Upon successful completion of a Special Research Task during the Adventure Week 2024 event, a reward will be given.

During the Adventure Week 2024 event, which will run from August 2 to August 12, 2024, players will have the chance to encounter Tyrunt in the wild or hatch it from 7 km Eggs. Additionally, there will be an increased likelihood of finding its Shiny form.

In the past, players were able to obtain Tyrunt as a prize for completing various Research Tasks, including “Spin 10 PokeStops”or “Walk 5 km: Adventure Week 2022”.

Is it possible to find a shiny Tyrunt in Pokemon Go?

During this year’s Adventure Week event, players searching for Shiny Tyrunt should seize the opportunity, as the chances of encountering Tyrunt’s Shiny version will be heightened. Its distinct blue hue, which is a stark contrast from its typical brown shade, makes it easily identifiable.
