Pokemon Go is hosting its monthly Community Day event, complete with a new Shiny Pokemon. The popular mobile game is hosting its monthly Community Day, a three hour mini-event in which players have the opportunity to encounter a specific species of Pokemon at a boosted rate. This month's featured Pokemon is Mudkip, the Water-type Starter from the Hoenn region. As expected, players who have already participated in today's event have confirmed that the Shiny variant of Mudkip is also appearing as part of today's festivities.
Shiny Pokemon have variant coloration than their normal counterparts and are usually quite rare. Community Day is a unique opportunity to catch one of these rare Pokemon as their appearance rate is boosted during the event. As the chosen Community Day Pokemon spawns frequently during the event, it's not uncommon to encounter multiple Shiny Pokemon during the event.
