Pokemon Go player gets ‘happiest three minutes’ with insane catch streak
A Pokemon Go player has struck gold with the “happiest three minutes” of catching rare Pokemon.
In the world of Pokemon Go, hunting for shiny Pokemon is one of the game’s biggest challenges. The base chance of encountering a Shiny Pokémon is 1 in 500, meaning there are very few of them.
Because Shiny Pokémon are difficult to find on a normal, non-event day, many players look forward to special Community Day events or other special times that increase the chances of finding and catching Shiny Pokémon.

But for one lucky player, it only took him “three minutes” to find and catch not just one shiny Pokémon, but several of them.

Her remarkable stretch began with her grabbing a shiny Cubchoo. While that’s already a win on any given day, the player followed it up with back-to-back catches from Shiny Pineco and Koffing.
