The Season of Heritage was just announced forPokemon GOto take place over the next few months and it starts with the return of Reshiram, Zekrom, and Zyurem, who this time come with shiny variants for the first time.
Pokemon GOhas a large majority of the full Pokedex available in the game to this point, but there are still plenty of them that do not have their shiny versions available in the game.
When new legendaries are introduced, they almost always do not have their shiny variations available for at least their first go around, but now the return of these Gen 5 legendaries has introduced three new shinies to the game.
Who Are They and When Will They Be In Raids?
Reshiram, Zekrom, and Kyurem initially debuted inPokemon Black and Whiteon the Nintendo DS before later showing up inPokemon GOin spring 2020.
Reshiram and Zekrom were the main exclusive legendaries for each ofBlack and Whiterespectively, while Reshiram could be obtained in both and later graced the cover ofBlack 2 and White 2as well.
Reshiram is a Dragon/Fire type, Zekrom is a Dragon/Electric type, and Reshiram is a Dragon/Ice type.
In the games, Kyurem can fuse with either Reshiram or Zekrom to make White Kyurem and Black Kyurem respectively, but that hasn’t made its way intoPokemon GOas of this time. However, you have to wonder if that is something that may come as a follow-up to this latest release of the trio.
Reshiram and Zekrom will be available in five star raids starting on Wednesday, December 1 at 10:00 am local time and will run through Thursday, December 16 at 10:00 am local time.
Kyurem will then rotate in starting on Thursday, December 16 at 10:00 am local time and will be in raids until
What Will Shiny Reshiram, Zekrom, and Kyurem Look Like InPokemon GO?
With Reshiram, Zekrom, and Kyurem all returning to five star raids inPokemon GOyet again, that naturally has many people wondering about their shiny variations.
All three will have shiny versions that you can get in raids with this latest appearance in the game, but what do they look like in the game?

" target="_blank" rel=“noreferrer noopener nofollow”>Reddit, we have a glimpse at the three shiny forms in the game.
As you may see, there are some differences with these shiny forms from the regular of course.
Reshiram has golden rings rather than grayish-blue ones. Zekrom is not very different at all, with the shiny version glowing green rather than blue.
Lastly, Kyurem looks a lot more different than the other two, with the main body being more black than gray, the secondary color being a darker blue, and the spot on the top of the head being pink instead of yellow.
All three of these Pokemon will be back in Pokemon GO soon if not already by the time you are reading this, so best of luck with getting a shiny of each.
