Comfey in Pokemon Go

Comfey’s location in Pokemon Go has got Trainers around the world confused, as this flowery Alolan species can only be found by visiting one specific area of the world.

In the Season of Alola that went live in 2022, several species that were first found in Sun & Moon’s Alola region made their debut in Pokemon Go. Those that made their debut included the starters — Rowlet, Litten, and Popplio — as well as the Legendary guardian deity Tapu Koko.

While most of these newly-debuted Alolan Pokemon can be found in the wild or in Raid Battles, one species that’s proving a little more difficult to find is Comfey. That’s because it’s a regional exclusive that only spawns in one location.

Below, you’ll find all the information you need to catch Comfey in Pokemon Go, as well as details on its Shiny availability.

How to get Comfey in Pokemon Go

Right now, the only way to catch a Comfey in Pokemon Go is to find one in the wild in Hawaii. As a regional exclusive, Hawaii is the only place it can spawn – it won’t appear anywhere else in the world.

The reason we’ve emphasized ‘right now’ is because regional exclusives usually find their way into other countries during special events, often appearing as limited-time Raid Bosses to fight and catch or via Community Days.

It could be months (or even years) before this happens, though, so for now, you’ll need to plan a trip to the islands of Hawaii — or be lucky enough to have a friend who’s been there and can trade you one.

If you’re wondering why Comfey is exclusive to Hawaii rather than a whole region, that’s because Alola was inspired by the islands of Hawaii. Unfortunately, this does mean many players will miss out on Comfey.

Can Comfey be Shiny in Pokemon Go?

Shiny Comfey is currently unavailable in Pokemon Go. Niantic has released Comfey’s Shiny version as of this writing.

There’s no word on a release date or release window for Shiny Comfey at this time.
