Discover the secrets of acquiring Mega Diancie in Pokemon GO! This comprehensive guide reveals the strategies to obtain Diancie and Mega Diancie, Mega Energy, and sheds light on the highly anticipated question of whether Diancie and Mega Diancie can be shiny

Pokemon GO introduces the Jewel Pokemon, Diancie, alongside its Mega evolution, Mega Diancie. Previously limited to events in Osaka, London, and New York, Diancie is now a prominent feature in the Global Fest 2023. Participants of the event will also have the opportunity to obtain a Mega Diancie.

Diancie and Mega Diancie are legendary Rock and Fairy-type creatures making their debut in the game. Diancie boasts a maximum CP of 3091 in Pokemon GO, while its Mega evolution reaches an impressive maximum CP of 4913. Both the regular and Shiny versions of this Pokemon possess versatile movesets that prove highly effective in both player versus player and player versus environment scenarios. Consequently, players may wonder about the methods to acquire Mega Diancie and if the Shiny variant is available.

Pokemon GO: How to get Mega Diancie

To start, players must obtain Diancie and then proceed to Mega Evolve it into Mega Diancie. Diancie is a featured creature in Pokemon GO Fest 2023, and those who purchase tickets for the event will have access to Special Research that allows them to obtain this creature. The Global event spans two days, and ticket holders will have the opportunity to engage in exclusive Special Research on the first day, Saturday, August 26. This particular Special Research will provide players with an encounter with Diancie.

Mega Diancie possesses a versatile range of moves, with the most effective combination being Rock Throw and Moonblast, which yields a DPS (damage per second) of 24.08. Once players have acquired a Diancie, they can Mega Evolve it by collecting 300 Pokemon GO Mega Energy. This particular type of energy can be obtained through completing ticket-exclusive Special Research tasks and by defeating Carbink in raids. To acquire a sufficient amount of Mega Energy, players must actively participate in 2-Star Carbink raids and emerge victorious. The faster a player defeats the raid boss, the more Mega Energy they will earn.

Once players have successfully defeated enough Carbink raids and gathered a total of 300 Diancie Mega Energy, they will be able to proceed with the Pokemon GO Mega Evolution process. The Mega Evolution of Diancie lasts for a duration of eight hours, during which only a single Pokemon can undergo Mega Evolution. However, it is important to note that if players choose to Mega Evolve another Pokemon within this eight-hour timeframe, the Mega Diancie will revert back to its original form. Furthermore, as players increase the Mega Level of Diancie, the amount of Mega Energy required decreases. Moreover, progressing in the Mega Level not only reduces the cooldown period but also unlocks additional bonuses.

Pokemon GO: Can Diancie and Mega Diancie be Shiny

The Ultimate Guide: Unlocking Mega Diancie and Unveiling the Secrets of Shiny Forms in Pokemon GO

While there are different versions of Shiny in the game, Shiny Diancie is currently not obtainable. Niantic, the developers, typically do not release a Shiny variant and its original version at the same time. As a result, players of Pokemon GO cannot currently evolve Diancie into Shiny Mega Diancie. Both Diancie and Mega Diancie have recently been introduced, so it may take some time for their Shiny forms to be released. Pokemon GO can be played on Android and iOS devices.
