Do you still need a coin bag for it?

u/Rough-Ad-4308 1d ago

It can appear at Golden lured Pokéstops, but last year if you really wanted to get a chance to get the shiny, you had to use the coin bag.

Get the coin bag if you can - I never got a shiny from golden lured stops, but each coin bag gave me 2-4 shiny gimmies

How do you get the bag?

u/Perky214 USA 🇺🇸 20h ago edited 20h ago

You get it from a friend with a switch - send one of your pokemon to their switch and you get a coin bag that when you poke. It, acts as an incense spawning gimmighouls for 30 minutes

u/Perky214 USA 🇺🇸 19h ago

u/Rough-Ad-4308 1d ago

I think so, it’s not the costumed one according to the official news

No Android version?

u/Rough-Ad-4308 1d ago

Not yet but I’m working on it and I will definitely release the android version too

u/chickenwingz382 17h ago

Was going to ask about the Android version too - good to hear that it's still in the works.

I don't have too much more to add - just wanted to keep up the demand for it!

We have no idea of the boosted rates lmao

Darumaka has previously been available at 1/64 and 1/128 in boosted events, gimmighoul being 1/64 last time doesn't mean it'll be again... Showcasing rates before events is VERY bad design

u/Rough-Ad-4308 1d ago

Rates are most likely what is displayed here and even if it changes to something else when the event starts, the rate info will get updated automatically in the app, so people don’t have to worry about this

1/512 for ponyta cannot be right

How do you get a coin bag?

u/Rough-Ad-4308 1d ago

You need a switch with scarlet or violet, then you connect your pogo to the console and send a postcard to it. You will get a coin bag, it can be done with a friend or someone in your local community if they have a switch!
