Shiny Ho-Oh in Pokemon GO is one of the game's rarest Shiny Pocket Monsters, solely because you can get his Legendary Pokemon only through raids. Ho-Oh raids occur once in a blue moon. So, if you do not have a Shiny Ho-Oh in Pokemon GO, you should not miss the 5-star raids.
To get Shiny Ho-Oh in Pokemon GO, you must first hunt for a regular variant of this Legendary bird. This article will walk through everything you need to get a Shiny Ho-Oh in your Pokemon GO account. Let's start with finding a Ho-Oh.
How to get a Ho-Oh in Pokemon GO
Ho-Oh is one of the desired Legendary monsters in this game. Due to its Legendary status, you can come across Ho-Oh only in 5-star Pokemon GO raids. Being a Legendary Raid Boss, this Fire-type Pokemon will not be available in Gyms all the time. They usually come during certain events.
You must find regular Ho-Oh first to increase your encounters with this bird. More encounters with a particular Pokemon will increase your odds of getting a Shiny one.
