A Pokémon Go player has revealed a secret about a Mythical Pokémon that can only be seen when set as a Buddy.
Players don’t have to travel the world alone in Pokémon Go, as releasing a Pokémon like Buddy is possible. If you feed the Pokémon Berries or Poffins, it can leave the Poké Ball and reside in the real world for a limited time.
The Buddy system may seem useless at first, but there is a tangible benefit to using it. If you take your Buddy for a walk, he can win Candy or XL Candy. Pokémon capable of Mega Evolving can also gain Mega Energy.

Most Pokémon will wander around the real world when released as Buddy, but some have special animations that play when released. These animations can easily be missed because there are so many Pokémon in the game, and many players ignore the Buddy system when it’s not part of a task.

A user on the Pokémon Go Reddit revealed that Shaymin will leave a trail of flowers in the real world when taken for a walk as Buddy. It turns out that other Pokémon possess similar traits when used as a Buddy, as revealed in the thread.

“Rayquaza flies really high. You can’t see it unless you point your camera all the way up”one user wrote, while another said: “Legendary birds do this too. All you really see when you’re zoomed in is their shadow flying around you. Pretty cool effect, to be honest.”
Shaymin isn’t the only Mythical Pokémon in Pokémon Go with unique traits like Buddy; as one user said, “People who got the original Meloetta from Go Fest get different background music when set as Buddy”.

The most frustrating aspect of Shaymin’s unique traits is its rarity. Shaymin can be difficult to acquire in Pokémon Go, as it is limited to specific events. This means that most players won’t get the chance to see its flower-generating walk.
The fact that Shaymin has such a cute ability is a nice little touch, and it’s a shame that many players can easily miss it. Most Pokémon released from their Poké Balls won’t do much other than run around the map, but Shaymin can bring a little pop of color to Pokémon Go.
