Here’s How to Catch a Shiny Clefairy in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet: Seize Your Perfect Opportunity

Find Shiny Pokémon Fast in Scarlet and Violet

Looking for Shiny Pokémon in Scarlet and Violet just got easier. Thanks to the mass outbreak system, you can find lots of one kind of Pokémon at once. Outbreaks usually happen by chance. But, a special event makes catching Shiny Pokémon a breeze.

A Clefairy mass outbreak event will take over Paldea in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet from Sept. 28 to Oct. 1, The Pokémon Company said. This event makes finding Clefairy for your team easy. Plus, the huge spawn rate means you have a better shot at finding a rare Shiny Clefairy.

Like other Scarlet and Violet events, this one won’t last long. The Clefairy outbreak lasts for a weekend. Then, things go back to the usual random outbreaks. Stay tuned for more events like this.

How to Quickly Catch a Shiny Clefairy

Since the game came out in November 2022, outbreaks have been the go-to for catching Shiny Pokémon. This is not just because of the high spawn rate. The best trick for Shiny hunting involves respawning Pokémon with picnics or by moving in and out of areas. Setting up a picnic or leaving an area makes all nearby Pokémon disappear. When you finish your picnic or come back, new Pokémon appear in their place.

Here’s the plan: Visit an outbreak spot, look for your Shiny, and if it’s not there, have a picnic or leave quickly. This will respawn the Pokémon but keep the outbreak there. When you return, you’ll see different Pokémon, giving you more chances to find a Shiny. Plus, if you defeat 60 of the same Pokémon in a row during an outbreak, your chances of finding a Shiny go up. This method usually leads to finding a Shiny within one to three hours, depending on your luck.

Don’t miss out on this. Join Scarlet and Violet from Sept. 28 to dive into the Clefairy outbreaks and try to catch that special green-horned Pokémon everyone loves.
