In Pokémon Sword and Shield, a secondary specialist guide reports ordinary shiny encounter odds of 1 in 4,096 without the Shiny Charm and about 1 in 1,366 with it. Those figures are not universal Pokémon odds. In Pokémon GO, shiny availability can vary, and Niantic’s official help page does not give a current Zigzagoon-specific rate.
Shiny Zigzagoon odds in Sword and Shield
For ordinary encounters in Pokémon Sword and Shield, Smogon University reports a base shiny rate of 1 in 4,096. With the Shiny Charm, the reported rate is about 1 in 1,366 (more precisely, approximately 1 in 1,365.33). These are probabilities for each eligible encounter, not a promise that a shiny will appear after a set number of tries. Smogon’s Sword and Shield shiny-hunting guide is a secondary source; the official Pokémon page does not list encounter odds.
What the odds mean
A 1-in-4,096 rate means each ordinary encounter has that stated chance of being shiny; it does not mean the 4,096th encounter is guaranteed to be shiny. The Shiny Charm improves the reported ordinary-encounter rate, but the numbers should not be applied to every way of obtaining a Pokémon.
Encounter methods can differ
The guide also discusses mechanics for methods such as breeding and Brilliant Aura encounters. Those are not interchangeable with the ordinary-encounter figures above, so use method-specific odds rather than treating 1 in 4,096 or 1 in 1,366 as a rate for every hunt.

What about Pokémon GO?
Niantic says that not every Pokémon has a shiny variant available and directs players to official Pokémon GO announcements for which shinies may be encountered. Its Shiny Pokémon help page does not publish a current Zigzagoon-specific rate. Availability and event context matter, so there is no supported single number here to give for Zigzagoon in Pokémon GO.

The name can refer to the previously discovered form or Galarian Zigzagoon. The official Sword and Shield Galarian Zigzagoon page presents the Galarian form separately, identifies it as Dark/Normal type, and shows its evolution path through Linoone to Obstagoon. Check the form and game before comparing odds or availability.
