"Guide to Catching Shroodle in Pokemon GO"

The new year has brought a wave of excitement for *Pokemon GO* trainers with the introduction of new Pokemon to catch. Following the addition of Fidough, players are eagerly anticipating the arrival of Shroodle in *Pokemon GO*. However, like many recent additions, obtaining Shroodle won't be as simple as encountering it in the wild.

When Did Shroodle Come to Pokemon GO?

Shroodle, the Toxic Mouse Pokemon, made its debut in *Pokemon GO* on January 15, 2025, as part of the Fashion Week: Taken Over event. Originally introduced in *Pokemon Scarlet & Violet*, Shroodle is a fresh face in the Pokemon universe. After its initial event, Shroodle will remain available for players to collect.

Can Shroodle Be Shiny?

At its release, Shroodle will not have a Shiny variant available in *Pokemon GO*. Trainers can look forward to its Shiny form being added in a future event, possibly one focused on Poison-type Pokemon or Team GO Rocket.

How To Get 12K Eggs

Since Shroodle is exclusively available through 12KM eggs, it's important to know how to obtain these eggs. 12KM eggs are among the rarest in *Pokemon GO* and can only be obtained by defeating Team GO Rocket Leaders or Giovanni in battle. The Taken Over event is an ideal time to gather these eggs, as Team GO Rocket will be more active and Rocket Radars will be easier to acquire. However, you can challenge Team GO Rocket Grunts at any time to face Sierra, Arlo, and Cliff, earning a 12KM egg if you have space in your inventory.
