Aside from the research quest and tasks, a focal point of New Pokémon Snap Celebration is the release of shiny Smeargle. This creature is only available through Photobombs; take a Snapshot of a creature in your collection, and there's a chance Smeargle will appear in the image. If so, they will then spawn in the wild for you to catch. As part of the event, Smeargle will appear up to 15 times per day. With the event running for four days, that gives you 60 chances at a shiny. Not guaranteed by any stretch, but there is still a chance. If you fail to get a shiny Smeargle, don't worry - the opportunity will come again in a future event. Beyond this, the following Pokémon have been given boosted spawns during the event: Aipom Audino Cacnea Chinchou Dodrio Ducklett Finneon Geodude Hoothoot Lotad Mantine Metapod Sandshrew Skamory Trapinch Finally, as always, there will be a new range of Pokémon in raids, including Incarnate forms of Landorus, Thundurus and Tornadus in five-star raids. Currently live is the Evolving Stars event, which includes the release of quest steps 5 to 8 of A Cosmic Companion - the Season of Light special research quest. Elsewhere, be sure to use Daily Adventure Incense for the chance of encountering Galarian Articuno, Galarian Zapdos and Galarian Moltres. There's also a new special research quest - A Mysterious Incense. Finally - don't forget about the new Prime Gaming rewards every fortnight.
