I’m really curious if Ferroseed has a higher shiny rate for the current event. I’ve been catching tons of Ferroseed, participating in a lot of raids, and even bought a ticket for the event. However, despite all my efforts, I haven’t been able to find any shiny ones! Meanwhile, I’ve managed to catch three shiny Falinks with no trouble at all. Is this just bad luck on my part, or are others experiencing the same struggles in getting that shiny Ferroseed?

Ferroseed’s shiny rate is around 1 in 128, which is definitely better than the usual 1 in 500. However, it can still take quite a few catches to get that shiny! On the other hand, shiny Falinks seems to be boosted even further during this event, which might explain why you’re catching them more easily.
I actually caught two shiny Ferroseeds today alongside other shinies like Hoppip and Lechonk. So, it sounds like you could still have a good chance! Don’t lose hope!
According to some sources like Leekduck, there is indeed a boost for Ferroseed this event! I managed to catch one shiny Ferroseed myself, so it’s possible! Keep trying, and good luck!
Thanks for the info! I had no idea the rates were actually boosted, that gives me some hope!
