How to Catch Komala in Pokémon Go: Is Shiny Variant Available?

The Catching Some Z's event has arrived in Pokémon Go, celebrating the release of the new Pokémon Go Plus+ device. As part of this event, the Drowsing Pokémon, Komala, is making its way into the game.

Despite initial speculation that Komala would be region-exclusive to Australia, it is now available worldwide. This guide will provide information on how to catch Komala during the event and address some common questions about this unique Pokémon.

How to Catch Komala:

Komala will be accessible as a rare wild encounter during the Catching Some Z's event, which runs from July 15 at 10 AM through July 16 at 8 PM local time. Explore as much as you can throughout the little time of the event to boost your chances of running into Komala. Use the "Nearby" function in the bottom-right corner of the map to search for shadows that resemble Komala. While you're exploring, using Incense can also aid in luring more wild Pokémon to your spot.

Can Komala be Shiny?

Unfortunately, Shiny Komala is currently unavailable in Pokémon Go. It is uncommon for a new Pokémon to debut alongside its Shiny variant, so trainers will need to wait for a future event to catch a Shiny Komala.

Does Komala Have an Evolution in Pokémon Go?

Komala does not have an evolution in Pokémon Go or any other game. It is a standalone Pokémon, which means you don't need to spend time collecting its Candy once you've caught one.
