ShinyInfo Telegram Bot

ShinyInfo is a Telegram bot that informs you about shiny Pokémon in Pokémon GO. It gathers information from different data sources and informs you about new shiny Pokémon as soon as these are added to any of the sources. You can request a list of shiny Pokémon and see how each shiny can be obtained.

Currently Gamepress.gg and Pogoapi.net are supported. If you know of any other detailed shiny info page, please create an issue or - even better - a pull request.

If you don't want to set up your own bot, feel free to use @ShineInfoBot.
