How to unlock Cutiefly and its Shiny version in Pokemon GO
(Image via Pokemon TCG Artes) The Bug/Fairy adorable Pokemon Cutiefly along with the shiny variant of it, has been fluttering around Pokémon GO since 2023. But to snag it is not that easy. It requires proper strategy and patience. While Cutiefly's evolution, Ribombee , now stars in the raids, the trainers must rely upon the specific methods for adding the Alolan native to their collection. Here is what you need to know on how to track both the forms of the Pokemon to complete your collection or just enjoy the hunt. How to catch Cutiefly and its Shiny variant in Pokemon Go? Currently, the best shot of getting a Cutiefly is in the wilds—they only spawn there, making it the target for persistent hunters. Focus on the areas with frequent Fairy-type activity or Bug-type activity, like the gardens or the parks. Also, use the Lure Modules or Incense to boost the spawn rates, and watch Nearby Tracker for the silhouette. Unlike in the past, the Pokémon no longer hatches from the eggs or appears in the raids. So, the wild encounters are the sole options for getting a Cutiefly. A shiny version of Cutiefly was released in January 2024. It has subtle pink accents on the head. The shiny odds are standard. So, tap every Cutiefly you can find. There's no trick for the boost rates, but grinding during the events with the increased spawns helps to improve the chances. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Complete protection with iPru All-in-one Term Plan ICICI Pru Life Insurance Plan Get Quote Undo Note : Cutiefly is resistant to bug, fighting, dragon, ground, dark, and grass attacks, and its weaknesses are fire, steel, rock, poison, and flying attacks. If you are in a hurry, Ribombee (the evolution of Cutiefly) is appearing in the Tier 3 raids. While you cannot catch the Cutiefly Pokemon directly, defeating Ribombee will reward you with some extra candy to keep evolving later on. How to spot and catch a Shiny Cutiefly ? Casual Wednesday's Shiny Hunting & Raiding #shorts #shortsfeed Shiny Cutiefly made a debut in January 2024 during the Dazzling Dream event. The difference is quite subtle— the yellow head of the Pokemon turns to soft pink— so pay close attention. Evolve it to the Shiny Ribombee, and colors will pop more, with a red scarf and pink wings. To find the Shiny Cutiefly variant is all about luck. The best bet is to catch as many Cutiefly as possible or to make repeated raids for Ribombee. The more the trainers will encounter, the best will be the odds to catch a shiny Cutiefly. How to evolve Cutiefly to Ribombee? After you have caught the Cutiefly, evolve it to Ribombee. It will cost you 50 Candies. To speed up the process, use the Pinap Berries when you are trying to catch Cutiefly for some extra candies. Set the Pokemon as your buddy for earning some extra Candy via walking— 1km per Candy. Also, do not forget to trade the duplicates for the additional candies. The current role of Ribombee as the Tier 3 Raid Boss even offers another perk. To defeat it can reward encounters with Cutiefly, indirectly helping Candy Farming. Remember, Ribombee is not just cute but also a Bug/Fairy-type Pokemon with some useful resistances. To evolve, the Shiny Cutiefly can guarantee the Shiny Ribombee. So, give priority to those, if you are collecting the rare variants. Happy Hunting!
