There is a chance for the reward encounter to be a Shiny Zamazenta (HMB), instead of a Standard variant.
You can encounter a Shiny Zamazenta (HMB) from Friday, October 4, 2024 (Galarian Expedition event).

That said, this guide details the best way to get Shiny Zamazenta (Hero of Many Battles) in Pokemon GO.
Pokemon GO: Get Shiny Zamazenta Through Raids (Hero of Many Battles)
Pokemon GO Zamazenta (HMB) is a Legendary 5-Star Raid Boss with exponential battle prowess. There is a chance that a Shiny Zamazenta (HMB) might spawn after winning, but the Shiny encounter isn’t guaranteed. While some players might encounter a Shiny Zamazenta (HMB), others may not. You must win several Zamazenta Raids (HMB) to match the monster’s Shiny odds.
Unlike Zacian (Hero of Many Battles), Zamazenta (HMB) is a Fighting-type Pokemon with distinct type-weaknesses and resistance. The first step is to study the monster’s Pokemon GO meta; only by doing so you can prepare powerful raid counters against it.
