Hogwarts Legacy Shiny Beasts Guide
The Room of Requirement, a magical, customizable "home" where players can grow plants, brew potions, and upgrade equipment, is one of the most charming aspects of Hogwarts Legacy. The Beast Vivarium, which serves as a safe haven for any beasts that players must rescue while exploring the Highlands, is an entertaining aspect of the Room of Requirement that extends beyond the room itself. Each of the 13 species of beasts in Legacy varies in size and color, but there is one uncommon variation of each that players might want to look for: creatures that shine. During Generation II of the Pokémon series, extremely rare Pokémon that did not have the standard color of their species would appear at random in the wild. This is when the term "shiny" was coined. Since then, Game Freak, a developer of Pokémon games, has included shiny Pokémon in nearly every game. Despite the fact that having a shiny Pokémon has no real effect on gameplay, many players are still fascinated by finding them. Avalanche Software has subtly included shiny versions of almost every beast in Hogwarts Legacy, clearly following Game Freak's lead. Here is a guide on how to determine whether a beast is shiny, which beasts have a shiny variation, and how to obtain them for players eager to rescue the shiny beasts of Hogwarts Legacy.

How To Know Whether A Beast Is Shiny?
Throughout the course of the game, Hogwarts Legacy does not use the term "shiny" to describe its shiny beasts. However, on the Vivarium inventory page, these rare creatures are identified by their unique color and a sparkling symbol to the right of their name or on the beast card's right side, just like shiny Pokémon. Few out of every odd glossy monster in Heritage is a similar variety, yet every species' sparkly variety is. For instance, shiny Hippogriffs are black, while normal Hippogriffs are either brown or white. In contrast, Shiny Unicorns are gold, as opposed to their usual white or gray hue. When rescuing shiny beasts from the wild, it is much simpler to identify them using the sparkle symbol next to their name rather than their color.

Which Beasts Have A Shiny Variation?
There is a shiny version of nearly every beast in Hogwarts Legacy. In fact, you can rescue and add to your collection 12 of the 13 beasts in the game in their shiny form. There is a shiny version of the following beasts: Fwooper, Diricawl, Giant Purple Toad, Graphorn, Hippogriff, Jobberknoll, Kneazle, Mooncalf, Niffler, Puffskein, Thestral, and Unicorn are the other characters.
The Phoenix is the only beast in Legacy that doesn't have a shiny version. You can only get it from Deek's quest, "Phoenix Rising." To activate it, you must complete the majority of the game's story and Deek's other quests. Even though there are no current plans for Hogwarts Legacy DLC, the developers may eventually include a shiny Phoenix.

How To Find And Rescue A Shiny Beast?
Utilizing spells like Disillusionment to cloak yourself and Arresto Momentum to slow the beast can increase the likelihood of a successful rescue, making the method for obtaining any beast in Hogwarts Legacy fairly simple. However, it can be challenging to locate shiny beasts because they are among the game's rarest.
The player should start by going to one of the shiny beast's dens if they are looking for a specific one. Once there, target each beast and check to see if it's shiny by looking for a sparkling symbol at the top of the screen next to its name. Rescue a few of the shiny beasts from that den, quickly travel to a nearby Floo Flame, use the world map to change the time to day or night, and then return to the den. The beasts will have reemerged, giving you another chance to find one shiny. Travel to a different one of the shiny beast's dens on the map or use the respawn method again if the player is still unsuccessful.
