A player who enjoys playing Pokemon Go displayed a humorous example of their luck when, while playing the game, they accidentally hit the wrong button and were rewarded with a Shiny encounter as a result. Fans of Pokemon are well aware that coming across a Shiny Pokemon is one of the most unlikely occurrences that can take place within the game.
Shiny Pokemon are monsters with a different color palette than the original and a very low probability of emerging in the wild. Shiny Pokemon can be obtained by breeding a regular Pokemon with a Shiny Pokemon. The chances of running into a Shiny Pokemon in their natural habitat are still highly slim, despite the fact that the means by which one can obtain a Shiny Pokemon have gotten somewhat less complicated as the series has progressed. Given these chances, the fact that a Pokemon Go player could catch a Shiny Pokémon thanks to an “accidental” misclick while they were playing the game makes the experience even more extraordinary.
A trainer sees Shiny Pokemon in Pokemon Go due to an “accidental” misclick
The user known as Calplush12 posted a screenshot of their experience with a Shiny Slugma on the Pokemon Go subreddit, where the story originated. A description that read “Accidentally hit ‘Use Now’ on my daily, and this little booger spawned” was next to the screenshot. Not angry at all about it.” For the benefit of those who might not be aware, every day, users of Pokemon Go receive a unique item called Daily Adventure Incense. This item lasts fifteen minutes and makes it more likely that players will encounter wild Pokemon as long as they move around.
The player who posted the original message wasn’t intentionally seeking to gain the additional wild spawn boost; instead, they accidentally pressed the wrong button while perusing their inventory. It is a good thing that they did since if they hadn’t, they might have missed the opportunity to catch their rare Slugma.
Trainers who commented on the post shared their experiences of how they happened onto their very own Shiny Pokemon by complete and utter chance. “Nice!! One player shared their experience, “Earlier this week. I felt a little touch of psychic abilities. I almost closed the app instead of clicking on a Pinsir spawn, and while thinking, ‘I wonder what the shiny looks like,’ I did it anyway, and then boom, shiny.” It simply shows that even the most experienced Pokémon trainers can be surprised by the appearance of a rare Pokemon.
