Cresselia is making its way back to 5-star raids inPokemon GO, and fans are quite curious to know whether it can be shiny and what the best moveset for the Pokemon is.

Cresselia is aPsychic-type Pokemonintroduced in Generation 4 and is a part of the Lunar Duo along with Darkrai. For players wondering whether Cresselia can be shiny in the game or not, the good news is that a shiny variant of the Pokemon exists in the game. However, unlike some other Pokemon, it can be a bit tricky to figure out whether Cresselia is shiny or not, considering that the color difference is a bit subtle. Players should focus on the gem on Cresselia’s head, as it is green in color instead of regular pink. The same goes for its wings as well. Additionally, theshiny symbol beside its CPis another reliable way of knowing whether the Pokemon is shiny or not.

Pokemon GO: How To Get Shiny Cresselia

Considering that Cresselia is a legendary Pokemon, the odds are a bit special with 1 in 20. It should be noted that some Pokemon have 1 in 64 odds, so this is one of the best odds players can get in the game. However, it is crucial to note that this resets every raid, so every time players encounter Cresselia, there will be a 1 in 20 chance of it being shiny. Players should roughly aim to attempt around 30 to 40 raids, and they should ideally be able to encounter a shiny one. However, this is again not guaranteed, and players might as well get one on the first raid itself.
