‘Pokémon Go’ players can soon pick up new Shiny version of ‘Celebi’ for free

Pokémon Go players will be able to pick up a new Shiny version of the legendary Pokémon Celebi during a week long promotion.

In a collaboration with the release of Pokémon the Movie: Secrets of the Jungle, players will be able to go on a limited-time Special Research story, allowing them the chance to encounter and capture a Shiny Celebi. The version will be available from December 14.

In a twist linking the event to the film, Jessie and James will lead the story event instead of the usual Professor Willow.

Celebi was first introduced in Pokémon Gold and Silver, which was released 21 years ago. The shiny version has been extremely difficult to get without cheating, though earlier this year Japanese Pokémon fans were able to get the shiny for Pokémon Sword and Shield in a similar movie promotion.
