Pokémon GO: How to Obtain Shiny Mega Sableye

In Pokémon GO, capturing a Shiny Mega Sableye begins with completing Mega Sableye Raids. First, players need to catch a Shiny Sableye to access the Shiny Mega form, which requires consistent wins in Mega Raids to increase the chances of a Shiny encounter.

As a powerful Pokémon, Mega Sableye’s strength escalates significantly as a Mega Raid Boss. To win, players should understand its type weaknesses and devise effective raid strategies, ensuring higher chances of encountering a Shiny Sableye by exploiting these weaknesses.

Tips for Capturing a Shiny Sableye

Catching a Shiny Sableye isn’t easy. Mega Sableye boasts impressive stats with 151 Attack, 216 Defense, and 137 Stamina, reaching a maximum CP of 2196. As a Mega Raid Boss, its battle prowess demands teamwork—solo raids are generally ineffective. Success depends on assembling a team of trainers armed with high-power counters to Mega Sableye.

With each Mega Sableye Raid victory, your chances of a Shiny Sableye encounter improve. To increase these odds, use the best raid counters against Mega Sableye's type vulnerabilities, especially Fairy-type moves, as the Dark/Ghost Pokémon is weak to them.
