Wuthering Waves has one unique thing that no other gacha game out there has: a Pokemon minigame. While it’s called something entirely different, the premise of catching the creatures is relatively the same. We’re going to figure out where you can find a Shiny Hoartoise in Wuthering Waves.
Wuthering Waves — Spawn location for Phantom Hoartoise
If you’ve been out in the world grabbing thoseViewpoints, you’ve already come across a multitude of creatures. All the non-human creatures in the world can be caught Pokemon-style and turned intoEchoversions of the enemies.
Echoesare found far and wide and make up a core component of WuWa. TheHoartoiseis a turtle-like creature that provides healing benefits when assigned as your main Echo for a character. But what’s more interesting regarding the Hoartoise is the fact that a Vtuber found an interesting spawn location for a shiny version.
Twitch and YouTube Partner MaiRubee took to Twitter to make apostabout how they found the shiny Hoartoise, further commenting that one of their viewers found it in the same location right after. And that location issouth of the Tolling Stream, along the riverwhere you’re able to fight the Bell-Borne Geochelone boss.
I got my first phantom (aka “shiny”) in WuWa! Here’s where I found it, and it seems like someone in my chat also got it. Check here to see if you might have it too!good luck 🙂#wutheringwavespic.twitter.com/Sd6zs4llWV
Shiny Echoes can be found throughout the post-apocalyptic world, but it seems certain ones have places they spawn. This can be a telling sign that there may be other locations where shiny Echoes will spawn. Near the circular boss arena at the beginning of the river, you’ll find a group of Hoartoise, andon certain days, there will be a Phantom Hoartoise among them.
According to the Vtuber and some comments on their post, there may be days when the shiny turtle doesn’t show up. Just keep revisiting the area and you’re sure to find it eventually. If you’re looking to do more with Echoes, consider checking out theWuthering Waves Echo Hunters event.
