"Shiny Keldeo & Meltan: How to Obtain in Pokemon Home"

Exciting news for *Pokemon Home* enthusiasts: the latest update to version 3.2.2 introduces the opportunity to snag Shiny Keldeo and Shiny Meltan, but you'll need to roll up your sleeves for some tasks first. Although the requirements might seem daunting, the allure of obtaining Shiny Keldeo is undeniable, especially since it was previously unattainable and Shiny-locked. Now, you can transfer both Shiny Keldeo and Shiny Meltan to other *Pokemon* games linked to your *Home* account, adding a dazzling touch to your collection.

The path to acquiring Shiny Keldeo in *Pokemon Home* involves completing the Galar Pokedex, which includes entries from *Sword & Shield* and its expansions, the Isle of Armor and Crown Tundra. Once you've ticked off all the necessary Pokemon, head to the main menu, click on the three-line menu icon, and select "Mystery Gift" to claim your Shiny Keldeo.

Remember, only Pokemon with the Galar origin mark, signified by a slanted PokeBall logo above their stat screen, will count towards completing these Pokedexes. This mark indicates that the Pokemon originated from *Sword & Shield* or its DLCs, not from previously completed Pokedexes in those games.

Fortunately, there's no rush; you can take your time to achieve this goal without worrying about missing out on Shiny Keldeo.

Similarly, to secure Shiny Meltan, you must complete the Kanto Pokedex in *Pokemon Home* with Pokemon from *Let's Go Pikachu & Eevee*. These Pokemon need to bear the Let's Go marker, represented by a Pikachu silhouette above their stat screen.

Once your Kanto Pokedex is fully completed, you can unlock Shiny Meltan through the "Mystery Gift" option in the main menu. Just like with Keldeo, there's no deadline, so you can work at your own pace to claim this shiny prize.

Why Is Pokemon Home Not Registering My Pokedex?

If you're facing issues with *Pokemon Home* not registering your Pokedex entries, it's likely due to a data problem. The solution is simple: clear your app's cache. Here's how you can do it, as advised by Pokemon's support website:

1. Open the *Pokemon Home* app.
2. Select the "Menu" icon (three lines within a circle) at the top-right corner of the title screen.
3. Choose "Clear Cache."
4. Confirm with "OK" after the reassurance that "None of the data you’re currently using will be deleted."
5. You'll see a message confirming "Cache successfully cleared!"

After clearing the cache, your Pokedex should register your Pokemon correctly, allowing you to progress towards obtaining Shiny Keldeo and Shiny Meltan.
