Summary
A newPokemon Scarlet and Violetmass outbreak event makes it easier to catch shiny versions of specific Pokemon.Pokemon Scarlet and Violetmass outbreaks are when a large number of the same Pokemon all spawn in the same area. The increased spawn rate typically means that mass outbreaks make it slightly easier forPokemon Scarlet and Violetplayers to catch shiny variants of Pokemon.
While the games had a rough launch,Pokemon Scarlet and Violethave dedicated fans who continue to play theopen world gamesto this day. Those that have already conquered the base games' story and the new content added in thePokemon Scarlet and VioletDLC expansions have started tackling some of the games' more daunting challenges, like completing their Pokedex orcatching as many shiny Pokemon as possible.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violetplayers who still have some shiny Pokemon to catch should be sure to boot up their games at some point between now and May 6 at 4:59pm PT. During this time, mass outbreaks of Magikarp and Varoom are happening in thePaldea region, while mass outbreaks of Shinx are popping up in the Kitakami DLC area. And finally, mass outbreaks of Rellor are happening in the Terarium at Blueberry Academy. WhilePokemon Scarlet and Violetplayers are not guaranteed shiny encounters during these mass outbreaks, their odds of finding shiny variants of these Pokemon are definitely increased.

Both expansions also give players access to some brand-new Pokemon, locations to explore, and story events to experience, so they’re well worth it for fans of the base games.
New mass outbreaks andTera Raid rotationswill help keepPokemon Scarlet and Violetplayers engaged with the games for now, but some may be anxious forPokemon’s future. The nextPokemongame isPokemon Legends: Z-A, which has been announced for a 2025 release on the Nintendo Switch.
