Hyperspace Lumiose (Special Scan distortion)Static encounter
Lv. 60
Post-story: after the Rayquaza mission, bank 25,000 Hyperspace survey points so Philippe can run a Special Scan, which may open a 5-star distortion holding one of the roaming legendaries (guaranteed after five misses). Not shiny-locked, so saving before the portal and reloading works.

Its treat comes from Snacksworth for every 10 solo Blueberry Quests in Scarlet; in Violet it only comes from group quests. Snacksworth appears after the Indigo Disk story; one per save, forced non-shiny.

Max Lair (Dynamax Adventures)RaidSword only
Lv. 70
Possible final boss of a Dynamax Adventure; shiny odds are about 1 in 300 per catch, or 1 in 100 with the Shiny Charm, and you only see whether it is shiny on the results screen. Can be caught once per save. Only Sword hosts get it as a boss, though the other version can meet it by joining such a host.

Pewter CityStatic encounterHeartGold only
Lv. 40
Needs the Enigma Stone. Nintendo's own distribution ended years ago, but fan-run Mystery Gift servers (reached by setting a custom DNS in the console's Wi-Fi settings) still hand it out. That is unofficial and could stop at any time.
