Because the special research “A Shimmering Distraction” in Pokémon Go requires fighting Jessie and James in Step 3 to get the rewards and thus Shiny Celebi, the developers are making changes to the tasks. This is because Jessie and James are not currently found in the game. We have updated our guide to “A Shiny Distraction”.

Update from March 4, 2021: The developers at Niantic have announced that they have made an adjustment to the required steps for the special research “A Shimmering Distraction” for Shiny Celebi. The reason for this is relatively simple: on February 28, 2021, Jessie and James disappeared again from the upper world with their Mauzi balloon for the time being and can no longer be encountered. Accordingly, it would not be possible to complete the original, third step, for which you would have to defeat the duo from Team Rocket. So, in order for you to still be able to complete the special research and collect the shiny, this change was made. We’ve adjusted our guide to A Shimmering Distraction accordingly.

Original news from December 4, 2021: Starting on December 14, 2020, things will get even tougher in Pokémon Go, because that’s when an event for the new Pokémon movie Secrets of the Jungle will launch in Niantic’s pocket monster-collecting app. The event doesn’t just ensure that Jesse and James reappear in the game on short notice with their Mauzi balloon. No, the infernal duo from Team Rocket also bring you a Limited Time Special Research on Secrets of the Jungle, guaranteed to earn you an encounter with a Shiny Celebi! And who wouldn’t want to snag this extremely rare Pokémon!!! Plus, if you’re lucky, you’ll be able to get your hands on Shiny Explorer Pikachu and Shiny Geronimatz.

In our guide to the Secrets of the Jungle event in Pokémon G o, we’ll give you all the information you need about the event itself, as well as the steps and rewards of the special research. Attention. As soon as they are all known, we will update this guide for you so you know what you need to do for the Iridescent Celebi. First, though, here’s the info on the event itself. Update as of December 15, 2020: We’ve expanded the guide to include all the steps and rewards of the special research “A Shimmering Distraction” for Shiny Celebi. Have fun!

Pokémon GO

Pokémon Go is the mobile spin-off of Nintendo’s popular Pokémon game series for Android and iOS. It is a so-called “location-based game”, i.e. a game that uses the player’s immediate surroundings. It is based on the principle of augmented reality.

Pokémon Map: Between landmarks and sights

Pokémon Go uses a Global Positioning System (GPS) to determine the player’s location and displays it on a map that also represents the playing field. The map is based on OpenStreetMap maps. The game is played mostly outdoors and uses landmarks, landmarks and other notable or eye-catching objects in the world to position either PokéStops or arenas there for you to battle for supremacy. Join either Team Intuition (Team Yellow, Zapdos), Team Wisdom (Team Blue, Arktos), or Team Daring (Team Red, Lavados). Under their flag you can then fight for the arenas, which are placed at hotspots like churches or similar. Pokémon can appear anywhere, though.

Pocket monsters visible on the Pokémon Go Map are randomly loaded into the game’s virtual map by the game server. If several players are playing in the same location, each player can see and catch the Pokémon independently of the others.

Pokémon Go Updates, News, Raids and More

The developers at Niantic regularly provide Pokémon Go with new updates or special raids that should only be tackled in a group of several people. The Pokémon Go Raids are therefore very popular, as they also offer the prospect of particularly rare Pokémon. For example, in the past, legendary Pokémon could always be caught on special occasions (Pokémon Go events). For particularly eager mobile or smartphone Pokémon trainers, there is also an external IV calculator, such as the online tool from Pokemon.gameinfo.io or on Pokefans.net, to check the values of your Pokémon.
