At the moment, the highest level a player can reach inPokemon GOis capped at 50. The mobile title has an incredible amount of activities to provide players with in-game experience, whether it’snewPokemon GOseasons, Community Days, special research tasks or challenges, and even hourly events that highlight specific pocket creatures.

On Reddit, user Creepy-Phone shared a screenshot of the Mewtwo encounter they had when they completed the Level 50 Special Research Challenge inPokemon GO. In the photo, the legendary pocket creature they encountered was clearly a shiny one, indicated by its muted silver and green body colorings. Given that it is particularly rare to encounter ashiny Pokemon inPokemon GO, especially in fixed encounters from completing research tasks and challenges, the Redditor was probably glad that they completed the challenge that day.

According to the post’s description, it took the player so long to complete the challenge because they did not want to go through the required matches in thePokemon GOBattle League. However, they persevered and probably thought all their efforts paid off the moment they saw the shiny legendary Mewtwo on their screen. FellowPokemon GOplayers replied on the Reddit thread with their own experiences on trying to hit the level cap. Some have been playing since the mobile title’s release in 2016, and have yet to reach level 50. Others seem to be playing hardcore, with only a few levels left to 50 while having only started the game in the past few months.

Unfortunately, fans should not expect to see ashiny legendary Pokemon inPokemon GOevery time they have a fixed encounter. Creepy-Phone was incredibly fortunate with theirs, and should only serve as a reminder of what lucky things can happen when players keep grinding inPokemon GO.
