Those of us using Pokemon Home can get rare rewards for using the app as usual, as two distribution events are in effect for Shiny versions of Manaphy and Enamorus. As these are tied to progress made in the Pokemon Legends: Arceus and Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl Switch games, it is possible you can immediately claim one or both of them. Both campaigns are live as of January 28, 2025. They are also each available worldwide.
The Shiny Manaphy is earned via getting all 151 Pokemon in the Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl Pokedex. If you collected and uploaded them to Pokemon Home already, you’re set. You can claim the level 50 Manaphy that knows moves like Acid Armor, Bubble Beam, Water Pulse, and Whirlpool.
The Shiny Enamorus is available in Pokemon Home if the Pokemon Legends: Arceus Pokedex is complete there. That consists of 242 characters. It arrives at level 50, just like the Manaphy. Its moves include Crunch, Draining Kiss, Extrasensory, and Moonblast.
Pokemon Home is available on the Switch and mobile devices. Pokemon Legends: Arceus and Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl are both on the Nintendo Switch worldwide. There’s no end date mentioned for the Pokemon Home Shiny Manaphy and Enamorous distribution events.
