Lechonk Shiny Hunting Guide (Pokémon Scarlet & Violet)
Basic Information
Lechonk is a Normal type Pokémon introduced in Scarlet & Violet. It is classified as the Hog Pokemon. Lechonk evolves into Oinkologne at Level 18. The form of Oinkologne that it evolves into depends on the Lechonk’s gender. Lechonk is normally a dark gray pig, but when it is shiny it turns bright pink.
Preferred Location
Lechonk’s optimal shiny hunting location is Poco Path in the grass patch on the right as soon as you enter the area. This is the best location to shiny hunt Lechonk because it’s the only place it can be isolated. There are other Lechonk habitats, but they all share habitats with other Normal-type Pokémon.
Best Hunting Method
You should use a Normal-type sparkling and encounter power sandwich in order to hunt Lechonk. Lechonk is the only Normal-type Pokémon in this area, so it’s easy to isolate with an encounter power sandwich. Run around the grass patch until a shiny Lechonk appears.

Tips
Fletchling also spawns in Poco Path but not in the grass patch Lechonk spawns, so don’t go too far from the grass patch.
