This is the shiny Pokémon of Pokémon GO
Table of contents:
Pokémon GO is celebrating the Aquatic Festival event from March 23 to March 29. They do it to commemorate International Water Day, but also to try to retain players. And it is that many are leaving despite the arrival of the second generation of Pokémon. The funny thing is that, in addition to giving priority to water Pokémon, rare Pokémon are appearing these days
These rare Pokémon are the variety known in their universe as shiny in English or shiny in Spanishl.Legend has it that in Lake Fury there is a strange reddish being. It is the first such Pokémon to be documented in both the games and the television series. It's the red Gyarados. One of these Pokémon that can now be caught in Pokémon GO.

Golden Magikarp
Several Pokémon trainers have begun to show on social networks the presence of a variant of the Magikarp that everyone knows. It is another one of those rare Pokémon, Shiny Pokémon or Shiny Pokémon, as they are known. In this case, and taking into account the aquatic event that is taking place, it is Magikarp in its golden version that is surprising regulars and novices.

The capture of these golden Magikarp is the same as that of the normal ones. The difference is in their evolution. And it is that, by collecting 400 Magikarp candies, it is possible to get one of the aforementioned Red Gyarados We do not know if among the Totodile, Squirtle or even Lapras that Niantic assures there are all over the world in greater proportion these days there are more variations.
Not all that glitters is gold
Now, other Pokémon GO players are discovering a harsh reality. Niantic is laughing at a lot of them. And it is that many of these Golden Magikarp that appear are nothing more than Ditto A Pokémon that transforms into any other.The surprise comes after catching it, when the golden Makicarp shows its true form.
When the magikarp is golden, it hits because the truth is a Ditto pic.twitter.com/tX5vL6ZXzf
