Update Pokemon Go Shiny Tornadus Therian Form Missing in Recent Raids, Hold onto Your Raid Passes

Update: Trainers, Shiny Tornadus Therian has now been spotted in Pokemon GO.

Previous Story: In a surprising turn of events for Pokemon GO trainers, Shiny Tornadus (Therian Form), which was expected in Tier 5 Raids from January 10 to January 17, 2024, seems to be absent. Despite its initial release two years ago, players report that the Shiny variant is not appearing in the current raids.

This oversight by Niantic has left many trainers disappointed. Typically, once a Shiny legendary raid boss is introduced, it remains available in subsequent appearances. However, in some regions where Tornadus has already taken over the raids, players conducting numerous raids have not encountered the Shiny form.

This isn’t the first time Niantic has forgotten to activate a Shiny version in the game.

Until the issue is resolved, players eagerly seeking the Shiny Tornadus Therian might want to hold off on using their Raid Passes. Stay tuned for updates as Niantic addresses this hiccup.
