Pokemon GO players can use some strategic methods to boost their chances of a Shiny Seviper encounter. Seviper comes as a wild monster and a 3-star raid boss during events that feature it. In addition, there is also a chance of encountering its Shiny variant in the wild or winning the raids.
Pokemon GO events like Rivals Week that feature Seviper offer a boosted opportunity to get Shiny Seviper. Players can get a Shiny encounter by winning the 3-star raids, hunting in the wild, or completing specific Research tasks. However, it is not that easy to get a Shiny Seviper encounter; Research quests have the lowest chance when compared to raid encounters and wild spawns. One must win numerous Seviper raids and strategically use different in-game items in the wild to boost the probability of a Shiny Seviper encounter. That said, this guide explores the best methods to encounter a Shiny Seviper.

Pokemon GO developers at Niantic increase Seviper’s wild spawn rate while in-game events featuring the monster. One can take advantage of the boosted spawn rate to catch up to Seviper’s Shiny spawn rate. Players can use different items to increase Seviper’s wild spawn rate even more. In-game items like Lure Modules, Incense, and the Weather Boost feature can notably increase the wild spawn rate.
