Pokemon Go player bags one-in-six-billion catch trainers didn’t know was possible

A player of Pokemon Go was amazed by their good fortune when they captured one of the most elusive creatures in the game at a highly unexpected moment.

During Go Fest events, it is common to encounter Unown as a spawn in Pokemon Go, but finding it outside of these events is extremely difficult. This Gen 2 Pokemon has 28 unique forms, making it a rare find for many trainers still striving to catch them all.

Therefore, when a Redditor known as ‘HoneyBee098′ posted on Reddit about their wild encounter with an Unown S, it caused quite a stir among other players. The original poster’s astonishment prompted them to question whether Unown spawn rates had been increased.

In the comments section, the OP was praised for their catch by users who called it “one of the rarest spawns outside of events.”Some were surprised as they believed Unown only appeared during Go Fest, confessing they were unaware of its availability outside of the event.

A trainer shared that they have been an active player of Pokemon Go since its launch in 2016, but have never encountered a Mesprit in the wild unless during a special event. In contrast, another trainer has come across multiple spawns of Mesprit, but has yet to encounter an Unown.

When someone inquired about the rarity of encountering an Unown, a player shocked everyone by revealing the astonishing odds of 1 in 6 million.

It’s important to note that Unown has the potential to be shiny in Pokemon Go, making them incredibly rare catches. This applies to both Go Fest and regular gameplay, so be on the lookout for these unique finds.
