Obstagoon is an incredibly well-known Pokemon from the eighth generation of the popular monster-catching games. This Galarian Pokemon is also available in Pokemon Go and flaunts its cool patterns on the regular. If you don’t already have this Pokemon in your Pokedex, then you are going to want to keep on reading to find out how to get Obstagoon in Pokemon Go.
How To Catch Obstagoon in Pokemon Go
Obstagoon can be found in Pokemon Go by evolving it from a Glarian Linoon that was, in turn, evolved from a hatched Galarian Zigzagoon. To hatch a Zigzagoon, you are going to want to hatch as many 7 km eggs as you possibly can until one shows up. Considering that, you’ll probably want to also stock up on candies so that you can level up your Galarian Zigzagoon quickly all the way to an Obstagoon. It would take you 25 candies to get it to evolve into a Linoone followed by 100 candies for the Linoone to evolve in Obstagoon. Hatching so many eggs might seem like a chore, and it really is, so you’re going to want to try and shoot for a shiny Galarian Zigzagoon if possible.
Can Obstagoon Be Shiny in Pokemon Go
Obstagoon can definitely be shiny in Pokemon Go. The shiny rate on Community Days makes it so that you can find a shiny Galarian Zigzagoon in about every 25 eggs. It’s a bit of a chore, but you’ll be reaping the rewards once you have your Obstagoon in your Pokedex. We have a whole guide on how to do that too if you want to grab a shiny Zigzagoon faster than you would have normally without any help.
