Trainers, in today’s News Roundup we have a few smaller news items to report on, including one of the best Box sales in Pokémon GO’s history, if not the best! With Holiday Part 1 kicking off, a lot of map changes have occurred as well.

Both shiny Dedenne and shiny Sandygast have debuted during the Holiday Part 1 event, and the release of their shiny forms has been confirmed. Dedenne is available in 1-Star Raids and from Daily Adventure Incense, while Sandygast can be encountered in the Wild, in 1-Star Raids, and as a Field Research reward.
