Guaranteed Shiny Pokemon in Pokemon Legends Z-A

Pokémon Legends Z-A, much like Pokémon Legends Arceus, has a guaranteed Shiny Pokémon encounter.
For this one, it’s a Shiny Mareep, and it can be accessed very early in the game. The Shiny Pokémon can be found via the sidequest. Found near Wild Zone 1, you can find the quest giver in the image below.

This quest is very short, and essentially consists of you climbing up the ladder inside Wild Zone 1. For all your effort, you’ll get a Shiny Mareep, which you can evolve into Shiny Flaafy and Shiny Ampharos.
Pokémon Legends Z-A Shiny Charm

Like in previous games, Pokémon Legends Z-A includes the Shiny Charm. This charm, as the name might suggest, makes Pokémon appear more frequently. The Shiny Charm is a reward for completing Mable’s research. Mable’s research is introduced to the player early in the game, and essentially rewards the player for completing missions like catching Pokémon, or engaging in battles.
If you’d like a complete list of all of the rewards for completing Mabel’s research, you can find them in our Mable’s Research guide.
