Gigalith has been available in Pokémon GO for quite a while but has only recently gotten the spotlight. The Pokémon was featured heavily for the September 2022 Community Day event that brought its pre-evolution, Roggenrola, out in force. Players were able to catch a shiny version of this Pokémon, which sports bright blue crystals and a dark-colored body.
