Pokémon GO: How to get Shaymin Earth and Sky form in the Sinnoh Tour

Getting Shaymin in his Earth and Sky forms in Pokémon GO is a very rare opportunity in the app.

While some players argue about the importance of IVs and others complain about this complicated mission , fans hope to capture all the new Shiny Pokémon from the Sinnoh Tour .

But Shaymin is one of the most interesting prizes, the popular unique Grass-type Pokémon that acquires the Flying type in its other form. And we will have the option to capture them, although there is an important condition in February 2024.

Get Shaymin Earthform

The first thing you will have to do is get Earth Form Shaymin during the Pokémon GO Tour: Sinnoh.

Those who purchase a ticket to the Sinnoh Tour in Los Angeles will have an encounter with a Shiny Shaymin, as long as they complete the special research.

You can buy the ticket for $4.99 or the equivalent in your country’s currency. The investigation will have 7 steps that we will explain to you on the website very soon.

With some dedication and money you can get the Shiny variant, which replaces the green with a brighter and more saturated blue. The leaf in Shaymin form sky also becomes more saturated.

How to get Shaymin Sky form in Pokémon GO

Getting Shaymin Sky form is a great achievement in Pokémon GO.

In the main series this form is special since it can only appear if you use a specific item called “gracídea” during the day. However, in Pokémon GO the Sky form can only be obtained through events.

In February 2024 you can get it, again thanks to the special research of the Pokémon GO Tour: Sinnoh of Los Angeles. If you purchased the ticket and complete a series of tasks, you can win an encounter with Sky Form Shaymin.

Can Shaymin switch between forms?

Unfortunately, Shaymin cannot switch between Ground and Sky form in Pokémon GO.

Niantic has reserved the forms of this singular for some special events, whether paid or free. The truth is that at least in the mobile game, you will have to treat both forms as two different Pokémon.

This is similar to unique Pokémon like Giratina, whose two forms are practically two different Pokémon. Although Hoopa and Furfrou can change shapes.

This cannot possibly be due to the stat change between each Shaymin form, as the same is true for Hoopa and Hoopa Unleashed. You could say that there are more differences between the latter, not only in types and statistics, but also in design.

It is probably a decision by Niantic to make the events more interesting, although many fans miss the special item to change shape.
