If you have been raiding since the game launched in 2016 and never saw a shiny Regirock, that is because one did not exist until now.<\/p>\n<h2>First-Ever Shiny Regirock, Regice and Registeel in Pok\u00e9mon GO<\/h2>\n<p>The three legendary golems from the Hoenn region have rotated in and out of Pok\u00e9mon GO raids many times since their original release in 2019, but their shiny variants have never been available in the game \u2014 until this rotation. According to community tracking sites <a href=\"https:\/\/pokemongohub.net\/post\/event\/this-week-in-pokemon-go-august-24-30-2026\/\">Pok\u00e9monGO Hub<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/leekduck.com\/events\/regirock-regice-registeel-in-5-star-raid-battles-august-2026\/\">Leek Duck<\/a>, all three are confirmed to have shiny forms available for the first time as part of this raid rotation. No official Niantic announcement page was available at time of writing, so treat the first-ever shiny status as community-confirmed pending a formal Niantic post.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gametrader.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/regirock-official-art.png?w=474&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Official Pok\u00e9mon artwork of Regirock, the legendary Rock-type golem\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><figcaption>Image courtesy of The Pok\u00e9mon Company<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>For Singapore trainers who remember grinding Regirock counters back when it first appeared in EX raids, this is a historic moment. The fact that all three debut their shinies simultaneously \u2014 rather than one at a time \u2014 means this two-week window is the best chance to add all three rare forms to your collection in one go.<\/p>\n<h2>Raid Dates, Times and Raid Hours \u2014 Singapore Schedule<\/h2>\n<p>Regirock, Regice and Registeel will appear in five-star raids from <strong>Wednesday, 26 August at 6:00 AM SGT<\/strong> through <strong>Tuesday, 8 September at 10:00 PM SGT<\/strong>. The event spans just under two weeks, with two dedicated Raid Hours giving you the best window to stack as many encounters as possible:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Wednesday, 26 August, 6:00 PM \u2013 7:00 PM SGT<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Wednesday, 2 September, 6:00 PM \u2013 7:00 PM SGT<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>During Raid Hours, gyms across Singapore light up with simultaneous raid eggs, making it easy to chain runs with a solid group. High-density raid clusters to target: Gardens by the Bay, Orchard Road, Bishan Park, and the civic district around City Hall MRT tend to have multiple gyms within walking distance \u2014 ideal for back-to-back Regi raids during that one-hour window.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gametrader.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/regice-official-art.png?w=474&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Official Pok\u00e9mon artwork of Regice, the legendary Ice-type golem\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><figcaption>Image courtesy of The Pok\u00e9mon Company<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Types, Weaknesses and Who to Bring<\/h2>\n<p>Each Regi has a single type, which makes counter selection straightforward:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Regirock (Rock)<\/strong> \u2014 bring Water, Grass, Fighting, Ground or Steel types. Mega Swampert and Primal Kyogre are strong Water picks; Machamp and Lucario work well for Fighting coverage.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Regice (Ice)<\/strong> \u2014 bring Fire, Rock, Fighting or Steel types. Mega Blaziken, Reshiram and Chandelure are the go-to Fire options; Rampardos and Rhyperior cover the Rock angle.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Registeel (Steel)<\/strong> \u2014 bring Fire, Ground or Fighting types. Reshiram and Chandelure again for Fire; Excadrill and Groudon for Ground coverage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>All three Regis sit on the tankier side of legendary raids and are manageable with a group of four or more well-levelled trainers. Solo clears are not realistically achievable without optimal mega-boosted counters.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gametrader.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/registeel-official-art.png?w=474&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Official Pok\u00e9mon artwork of Registeel, the legendary Steel-type golem\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><figcaption>Image courtesy of The Pok\u00e9mon Company<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Shiny Odds and What to Expect<\/h2>\n<p>Standard legendary raid shiny rates in Pok\u00e9mon GO have historically sat around 1-in-20 (approximately 5%). With all three Regis running the full two-week window, a dedicated raider joining several groups over Raid Hours and weekends should have a realistic shot at each form \u2014 though nothing is ever guaranteed with Pok\u00e9mon GO&#8217;s RNG. Shiny check every encounter: the shiny versions feature distinctive colour swaps (Shiny Regirock goes from orange-brown to a blue-grey; Shiny Regice shifts from light blue to a mint green; Shiny Registeel darkens from silver to a deep gun-metal blue).<\/p>\n<p>If you are looking to connect with other Singapore trainers for remote or in-person raid coordination, the <a href=\"\/blog\/category\/event\/\">local Pok\u00e9mon GO community<\/a> is active across various Discord servers and Telegram raid groups \u2014 a quick search for your area will get you added to the right chat.<\/p>\n<p><!--GT-SCOUT source=\"Web (English)\" theme=\"Pokemon\" flags=\"First-ever shiny claim sourced from community sites Pok\u00e9monGO Hub and Leek Duck; no official Niantic announcement page confirmed at time of writing\"--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shiny Regirock, Regice and Registeel debut in Pok\u00e9mon GO 5-star raids from 26 August \u2014 the first time any of the Regi legendary golems have appeared as shinies in the game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":19,"featured_media":8558,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":[]},"categories":[11,12],"tags":[31,1118,182],"class_list":["post-8562","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-game-news","category-singapore-gaming-scene","tag-pokemon","tag-pokemon-2","tag-pokemon-go"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gametrader.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/regi-trio.jpg?fit=1024%2C512&ssl=1","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p13AlF-2e6","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":6708,"url":"https:\/\/www.gametrader.sg\/blog\/kyurem-raid-hour-pokemon-go-july-29-2026\/","url_meta":{"origin":8562,"position":0},"title":"Kyurem Raid Hour Tonight in Pok\u00e9mon GO \u2014 Shiny Available, Rare Candy XL Bonus","date":"July 29, 2026","format":false,"excerpt":"Kyurem is in 5-Star Raids in Pok\u00e9mon GO this week, and tonight's Raid Hour (6\u20137 PM SGT) is your best window.
