Exciting news for *Pokemon Home* players! After updating to version 3.2.2, you can now get your hands on Shiny Keldeo and Shiny Meltan. However, there are some tasks you'll need to complete first. While the requirements might seem daunting, the reward of adding a Shiny Keldeo to your collection is well worth it. Previously unobtainable and Shiny-locked, this Legendary Pokemon, along with Shiny Meltan, can now be transferred to other *Pokemon* games linked to your *Home* account.
To snag Shiny Keldeo in *Pokemon Home*, you'll need to complete the Galar Pokedex. This means filling out the Pokedexes not only from *Sword & Shield* but also from the Isle of Armor and Crown Tundra DLCs. Once you've achieved this, navigate to the main menu, select the three-line menu icon, and choose "Mystery Gift" to receive your Shiny Keldeo.
Remember, only Pokemon with the Galar origin mark will register in these Pokedexes. This mark, a slanted PokeBall logo, appears above the stat screen and indicates that the Pokemon originated from *Sword & Shield* or its DLCs. Completing the Pokedex in *Sword & Shield* itself won't count towards this goal in *Pokemon Home*.
Fortunately, there's no rush; you can take your time to complete your Pokedex and claim Shiny Keldeo whenever you're ready.
Similarly, to obtain Shiny Meltan, you must complete the Kanto Pokedex in *Pokemon Home* with Pokemon from *Let's Go Pikachu & Eevee*. These Pokemon need to have the Let's Go marker, depicted as a Pikachu silhouette above their stat screen.
Once your Kanto Pokedex is complete, head to the main menu and select "Mystery Gift" to unlock your Shiny Meltan. Like with Keldeo, there's no deadline, so you can take as long as needed to finish your Pokedex.
If you're experiencing issues with your Pokemon not registering in your Pokedex, it might be due to a data issue, especially on mobile devices. To resolve this, you can clear your cache by following these steps:
This should help your Pokedexes start registering your Pokemon correctly.
Now that you know how to obtain Shiny Keldeo and Shiny Meltan in *Pokemon Home*, why not explore the best counters to defeat Mega Tyranitar in *Pokemon GO*? And for more free rewards, don't forget to check out the latest *Pokemon GO* promo codes for additional bonuses.
