Shiny Weavile Pokemon GO: Is it Available?

Knowing if Shiny Weavile in Pokemon GO is available is especially important given the abundance of Sneasels available. Weavile is a fairly strong Pokemon in Pokemon GO, though it is not especially powerful in the mainline Pokemon games. This means that Weavile is best kept in Pokemon GO, and a shiny Weavile becomes especially valuable (if it exists).

Shiny Weavile Pokemon GO: Is it Available?

Shiny Weavile in Pokemon GO does exist! Rest assured that Niantic would be unlikely to have a massive research day centered around catching Sneasel if both Sneasel and its evolution were not available in their shiny forms. While many shiny Pokemon end up looking worse than their original forms, Weavile and Sneasel actually end up looking better. Instead of the typical black Sneasel, players can have a pink one, but Weavile is where things get exciting. Weavile’s crown is golden, and its skin is a kind of magenta.

Weavile’s moveset is decent, and its typing allows it a good spread of damage, though its resistances are not strong. According to Pokemongo.gameinfo.io the best moveset for Weavile is Snarl and Avalanche. A dark-type move and an ice-type move. The ice-type move is especially effective against some of the most popular Pokemon in the game, dragon-types. Weavile is a worthy addition to any team, and its shiny version would make anyone jealous.
