How To Get Shroodle in Pokemon GO

The new year in Pokémon GO brings a wave of new Pokémon, and Shroodle is the latest addition! Unlike many wild spawns, acquiring Shroodle requires a bit more effort.

Shroodle's Pokémon GO Debut:

The Toxic Mouse Pokémon, Shroodle, arrived in Pokémon GO on January 15, 2025, as part of the Fashion Week: Taken Over event. Following the event, it will remain available.

Shiny Shroodle:

Currently, a Shiny Shroodle isn't available in Pokémon GO. Its Shiny variant will likely appear in a future event, perhaps one focused on Poison-type Pokémon or Team GO Rocket.

Catching Shroodle:

Shroodle isn't a wild spawn. The only way to obtain it is by hatching 12KM Eggs. These eggs, obtainable after defeating Team GO Rocket Leaders (Sierra, Arlo, Cliff, or Giovanni), have a chance of containing Shroodle. The probability is likely higher during the Fashion Week: Taken Over event.

Acquiring 12KM Eggs:

12KM Eggs are exclusively obtained by defeating Team GO Rocket Leaders or Giovanni. The Fashion Week: Taken Over event provides an excellent opportunity to stock up on these eggs, as Team GO Rocket encounters will be more frequent.

Obtaining Grafaiai:

Grafaiai, Shroodle's evolution, also debuted on January 15th. It's not found in the wild or hatched from eggs; evolution from a Shroodle is the only method. This requires 50 Shroodle Candy, achievable through hatching multiple Shroodle or using it as your buddy Pokémon.

Pokémon GO is available now.
