Pokemon GO brings in Regirock and Shiny Regirock as a 5-star raid reward encounter. Those who manage to win against Regirock as a 5-star raid boss might get to encounter a Shiny Regirock. But since Regirock is part of the Legendary Titans, defeating in raids is challenging and requires a well-thought-out approach to win.
Pokemon GO trainers should note that a monster’s CP increases significantly as a raid boss, and the higher the raid tier, the more powerful a boss becomes. Since the monster’s battle prowess boosts notably, players must prepare thoroughly to win against Regirock as a 5-star raid boss. One should team up with other players and avoid attempting the raid solo. Study Regirock’s weaknesses and resistances to select powerful counters; only by winning the raids multiple times can the chances of a Shiny Regirock encounter increase.

How To Get Shiny Regirock In Pokemon GO
Regirock is a legendary Rock-type Pokemon with a maximum Pokemon GO CP of 3530, which boosts notably as a 5-star raid boss. It has a stats spread of 179 ATK, 309 DEF, and 190 STA, making the monster a tank that can absorb most attacks. One can use its mediocre Attack and Stamina stat to win against it in raids. Defeating the 5-star raid boss might result in a Shiny Regirock spawning nearby, but one might just encounter a Regular variant.
While the Shiny encounter isn’t guaranteed, Pokemon GO trainers can use a strategy to increase the probability. One must win numerous raids and spawn several Regirock, which might help match the monster’s Shiny odds. Although the plan is straightforward, winning against Regirock multiple times is tough.
Pokemon GO legendary raid bosses are mighty, and players must carefully select counters to win against such powerhouses. The Regirock 5-star raid counters should have move types that align with its weaknesses; avoid those with move types the raid boss resists. Counters with the Same Type of Attack Bonus potential moves can inflict even more damage on the raid boss.
