The Pokemon Company International has revealed that players can now obtain a shiny Meloetta in Pokemon Home following the recent 3.2.2 update. However, this opportunity isn’t just a simple giveaway; it requires you to complete specific tasks within the Pokedex.
To unlock this shiny variant, you must ensure your Pokemon Home account is connected to your copy of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet on the Nintendo Switch. Players need to complete the entire Paldea Pokedex, as well as the Pokedexes for the Blueberry and Kitakami regions found in the expansion pass. After confirming your progress in the “Games” section of Pokemon Home, you’ll receive a Shiny Meloetta as a Mystery Gift. Once you have it in your inventory, you can transfer it to your chosen game.
A screenshot showcasing the Shiny Meloetta within the Pokemon Home application has also been shared. Upon claiming it, this Normal and Psychic-type Pokemon will arrive at level 50. The displayed stats in the screenshot indicate it has 170 HP, 82 Attack, 162 Special Attack, 92 Defense, 148 Special Defense, and 110 Speed. With a Modest nature, it enhances its Special Attack while lowering its Attack. Additionally, the ability Serene Grace increases the likelihood of activating the effects of its moves. The Shiny Meloetta will come equipped with Echoed Voice, Psybeam, Relic Song, and Sing; hence, moves like Psybeam and Relic Song will benefit from the Serene Grace ability.
