Its stats are skewed the wrong way for PVP and its moves leave a lot to be desired.

Spoiler warning, its underwhelming.

You want to runDouble Kick, Psychic Fangs and Thunderbolt.

InGreat League, this gives you wins against Alolan Sandslash, Noctowl, Lickitung, Pelipper and Walrein.

Losses come from the far more meta-relevant Medicham, Alolan Ninetails, Registeel, Galarian Stunfisk and Lanturn.

Jumping through these hoops will now allow you to beat Registeel, along with Swampert, Cobalion and Walrein.

However, you will lose against Cresselia, Giratina, Trevenant, Charizard and Tapu Fini.

Master Leagueis clearly a bridge too far.

Dont even think about it.

First, however, you better visitPower Spots to collect Max Particlesand complete theTo the Max!

What does shiny Girafarig look like in Pokemon Go?

That was a big day for shinies!

To find a shiny Pokemon, you gotta start a catch encounter with a Pokemon in the wild.

Some shinies are easier to spot than others, such as Girafarig.

Thanks to YouTuberProphetPokefor the video from the main-series games!

Girafarigs back end is a little lighter than its regular cousin.

If you want to see a preview of shiny Farigiraf, skip forward to4:28.

Its a much more noticeable shiny, with its fur changing to a deep red.

Good luck finding a perfect Girafarig!
