Lunar New Year Event

The Lunar New Year event with Pokémon GO brought in new unique items and bonuses to collect. In Pokémon GO, new events are relatively common, and they usually coincide with a significant real-world event or holiday. Pokémon GO officially released Shiny Litleo in the game in 2022, the Year of the Tiger according to the Chinese solar calendar. It has been available in its original form for several months, but this is the first time it has appeared in its Shiny form.
