This post talks about a new field in the Shiny API of PoGoAPI.net<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Photobomb Shinies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When taking a photo of Pokemon it is possible for a Pokemon to photobomb the picture and appear in front of the subject. When this happens the Pokemon will then appear in the overworld when you finish with the Pokemon Go camera app. This will then let you catch the Pokemon who photobombed your picture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Typically if the Pokemon is found in the wild it is also possible to be a shiny when it photobombs your photos. However it is important to note that some Pokemon can only be found shiny when photobombing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modifying the Shiny API<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The\u00a0Shiny API previously documented<\/a>\u00a0now has a new field\u00a0found_photobomb<\/code><\/code>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Pokemon that can be found as a shiny when photobombing this will be set to true.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Shiny API will not increment the version field but this will be added into consideration for the next version of the Shiny API that I am working on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An Example of the field<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Below is an example of the field for Stantler, Smeargle, and Smoochum.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n    "234": {\n        "found_egg": false,\n        "found_evolution": false,\n        "found_photobomb": true,\n        "found_raid": false,\n        "found_research": true,\n        "found_wild": true,\n        "id": 234,\n        "name": "Stantler"\n    },\n    "235": {\n        "found_egg": false,\n        "found_evolution": false,\n        "found_photobomb": true,\n        "found_raid": false,\n        "found_research": false,\n        "found_wild": false,\n        "id": 235,\n        "name": "Smeargle"\n    },\n    "238": {\n        "found_egg": true,\n        "found_evolution": false,\n        "found_photobomb": true,\n        "found_raid": false,\n        "found_research": true,\n        "found_wild": true,\n        "id": 238,\n        "name": "Smoochum"\n    },\n<\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n
