How to capture Kecleon in Pokémon GO? Where does it appear?

As of January 7, 2023, Kecleon appears in Pokémon GO, making possible the completion of the Hoenn regional PokéDex. Catching Kecleon in Pokémon GO depends entirely on luck. To "generate" a Kecleon, we must spin Photodisks from PokéStops.

We have a random chance that, when turning a Photodisc in a PokéStop, there will be a Kecleon hiding in it. If we look closely at the image/photograph of the Photodisc, we may see the characteristic zigzag pattern of the Kecleon's belly. If it appears and we turn the Photodisc of that PokéStop, we will "knock" Kecleon out of its hiding place and will appear on the world map, where we can touch it to capture it as if it were any other wild Pokémon.

The only way available to obtain a Shiny Kecleon is at the 2023 Pokémon GO Las Vegas Tour. This is an in-person event taking place on February 18 and 19, 2023 in Sunset Park, Las Vegas, United States. In the rest of the world, we will have to make do with normal Kecleon... if we find any of them, because their rate of appearance is relatively low, and if we live in a place with few PokéStops, it will be even more difficult to find a specimen of this species.

This is just one more page of our Pokémon GO guide. In it, we tell you, among other things, how to get other hard-to-find Pokémon like the Mythical Jirachi o the region based Scatterbug.
