How To Get Shiny Magnemite In Pokemon GO?

You can encounter a Magnemite and a Shiny Magnemite as a Pokemon GO wild spawn. Events like the Magnetic Study 2024 boost the wild spawn rate of Magnemite and increase the chances of a Shiny Magnemite encounter. You must encounter several Regular variants to match Magnemite’s Shiny odds.

While featured events increase Magnemite’s spawn rate, you can also use different Pokemon GO items to further boost it. In-game items like Incense, Lure Modules, and the Weather Boost effect can significantly boost wild Pokemon’s spawn rate. While Incense and Lure Modules need manual activation, Weather Boost is a passive effect that increases the wild spawn rate in specific weather conditions.

Magnemite’s spawn rate notably increases in areas with rainy and snowy weather. Shiny hunters must navigate to a PokeStop in rainy and snowy weather, attach a Lure Module, activate a Pokemon GOIncense, and walk around the area of effect. This strategy stacks their effects on the already boosted wild spawn rate during featured events and spawns numerous Magnemite. The more Magnemite you encounter, the faster you might reach its wild Shiny spawn rate.
