How to get Jangmo-o during Go Fest 2024
If you're planning on catching a bunch of Jangmo-os during Go Fest 2024: Global, then you'll need to know when this little dragon is spawning more frequently.
On Day One - Saturday 13th July - Jangmo-o is spawning more frequently during the Shining Day habitat hour. This habitat hour occurs twice during this day at 11am to 12pm (local time) and 3pm to 4pm (local time) meaning it occurs for two hours in total.
On Day Two - Sunday 14th July - Jangmo-o will be spawning more frequently in the wild from 10am to 6pm (local time). The downside, however, is so will all the other rotating habitat hour Pokémon. This means you may find it more difficult to hunt down Jangmo-o, so take advantage of the Shining Day habitat hour while you can.
Luckily Jangmo-o is also appearing in one-star raids throughout Go Fest 2024: Global. Since it's a one-star raid boss, you should be able to easily defeat Jangmo-o by yourself with a team of strong Ice and Fairy-type Pokémon. Still if you're a newcomer or would simply like some advice, take a look at our recommended Jangmo-o counters and weaknesses below.
First, however, let's take a look at shiny Jangmo-o...
Is Jangmo-o shiny in Pokémon Go?
Yes! Shiny Jangmo-o was released into Pokémon Go as part of the Go Fest 2024: Global celebrations. You can evolve your shiny Jangmo-o into shiny versions of its evolutions Jangmo-o and Hakamo-o.
Jangmo-o has quite a cool shiny form, with its grey main body colouring taking on a bright yellow shade. Its scales, meanwhile, gain a vibrant pink colour.
