Pokémon GO Shiny Lickitung: How to Catch One

Pokémon GO's Valentine's Day celebration will make several pink Pokémon available over the course of the month. Lickitung's turn will come on a Raid Day scheduled for Feb. 15 from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. local time. During those hours, Lickitung will appear in four-star raids. Lickitungs encountered in those raids will have the special move Body Slam.

Players can receive up to five extra Raid Passes for free during the event by spinning Photo Discs at Gyms. Only one Raid Pass can be held at a time. Raid Passes obtained during the event will become unavailable once the event ends.

Trainers facing Lickitung will have the chance to encounter Shiny Lickitung, presumably at the standard Shiny rate.
