Exciting news for *Pokemon Home* enthusiasts: the latest update to version 3.2.2 brings the opportunity to snag Shiny Keldeo and Shiny Meltan. But, to get these dazzling Pokémon, you'll need to roll up your sleeves and complete some specific tasks. While the effort might seem daunting, the reward of obtaining a Shiny Keldeo, previously unattainable and Shiny-locked, is definitely worth it. Once you've secured them, you can transfer these Shiny legends to other *Pokemon* games linked to your *Home* account.
How To Get Shiny Keldeo in Pokemon Home
To claim Shiny Keldeo in *Pokemon Home*, you must first complete the Galar Pokedex. This involves registering all Pokémon from *Sword & Shield*, along with those from the Isle of Armor and Crown Tundra DLCs, into their respective Pokedexes within the game. After achieving this, navigate to the main menu, select the three-line menu icon, and then choose the "Mystery Gift" option to receive your Shiny Keldeo.
It's crucial to note that only Pokémon with the Galar origin mark, indicated by a slanted PokeBall logo above their stat screen, will count towards completing these Pokedexes. Pokémon transferred from other games without this mark won't register. Fortunately, there's no rush; you can take your time to complete the Pokedex without worrying about a deadline.
How To Get Shiny Meltan in Pokemon Home
Similarly, to obtain Shiny Meltan, you need to complete the Kanto Pokedex in *Pokemon Home* with Pokémon from *Let's Go Pikachu & Eevee*. The Pokémon must have the Let’s Go marker, shown as a Pikachu silhouette above their stat screen. Once your Kanto Pokedex is complete, head to the "Mystery Gift" option in the main menu to claim your Shiny Meltan. Again, there's no deadline, so you can work at your own pace.
Why Is Pokemon Home Not Registering My Pokedex?
If you're encountering issues with *Pokemon Home* not registering your Pokémon in the Pokedex, it could be due to a data glitch. The solution is straightforward: clear the cache. Here's how to do it:
- Open the *Pokemon Home* app.
- Select the "Menu" icon (three lines within a circle) at the top-right corner of the title screen.
- Choose "Clear Cache."
- Confirm by tapping "OK." You'll see a message confirming that the cache has been cleared successfully.
After clearing the cache, your Pokedex should register your Pokémon correctly. Now that you're equipped with the knowledge to capture Shiny Keldeo and Shiny Meltan in *Pokemon Home*, why not explore strategies to conquer Mega Tyranitar in *Pokemon GO*? Additionally, don't miss out on the latest *Pokemon GO* promo codes for extra in-game bonuses.
