Buzz is in the air, or at the very least Combee, the buzz Pokemon is. Learn how to add it to your Pokemon Go collection and whether it can be Shiny with our full guide now.
There are plenty of cute Bug-type Pokemon in Pokemon Go, but Combee may be one of the best. Not just because it’s based on bees – which are excellent – but also because it has a unique method of evolution.
So, if you want to add the bee-based Pokemon to your Pokemon Go collection, here’s everything you need to know.
How to get Combee in Pokemon Go
In Pokemon Go, Combee is a wild encounter, meaning that it spawns in the overworld as players explore. As a Bug-type Pokemon, Combee is more likely to spawn in grass biomes or around places designated as fields or parks on the game’s map.
Plus, the upcoming Pokemon Go Ultra Unlock: Better Together event, taking place from July 17 to July 22, 2024, will increase the spawn rate for Combee, meaning players are much more likely to encounter one in the wild during that time.
Combee will also be available as a reward for completing Field Research Tasks during Ultra Unlock: Better Together.

Can Combee be Shiny in Pokemon Go?
Yes, Shiny Combee was added to Pokemon Go as part of Pokemon Go Fest 2022, so players have a chance of encountering it whenever they find a Combee in the wild.
Anyone hoping to add Shiny Combee to their collection is in luck, as the upcoming Pokemon Go Ultra Unlock: Better Together event features an increased chance of finding Combee in the wild.
Just keep your eyes peeled, as the differences between both versions are very subtle. Plus, remember there’s no special method to secure a Shiny encounter. It’s all about the rates.
