Pokémon Scarlet and Violet's Snake-Themed Mass Outbreak Event
A special Mass Outbreak event in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet is underway, celebrating the Year of the Snake with boosted Shiny encounter rates! This limited-time event features increased appearances of Silicobra, Ekans, and Seviper.
The event, running from January 9th to 12th, offers players a heightened chance to catch Shiny versions of these serpentine Pokémon. This follows the recent Shiny Rayquaza Tera Raid event, a fitting end to the Year of the Dragon.
This Snakelike Mass Outbreak sees Silicobra appearing across Paldea, Ekans in Kitakami, and Seviper in the Terarium. Pokémon levels range from 10 to 65, scaling with player progress in the main story. To participate, players must connect to the internet, access the Poke Portal via the in-game menu, and select "Get Poke Portal News."
Event Details:
- Duration: January 9th – January 12th
- Pokémon: Silicobra, Ekans, Seviper (increased Shiny rates)
- Locations: Silicobra (Paldea), Ekans (Kitakami), Seviper (Terarium)
- Internet Connection Required: Yes
The Shiny encounter rate is boosted by 0.5% before any additional multipliers are applied. Players can further enhance their chances by crafting Shiny Sandwiches. For Ekans and Seviper, use a Salty or Spicy Herba Mystica with a Green Bell Pepper; for Silicobra, substitute the pepper with Ham.
The future of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet in 2025 remains uncertain, particularly with the anticipated launch of Pokémon Legends: Z-A. The Pokémon Company’s plans for the Year of the Snake are yet to be revealed.
