If you are lucky enough, you can get a Shiny Frigibax in Pokemon GO from one-star raids during the GO Fest Global 2025. While the event is underway, Frigibax will be readily available in the one-star raids in Pokemon GO. After you defeat the critter, you might encounter a Shiny Frigibax if you are lucky.

Unfortunately, there is no way to know if you will encounter a Shiny Frigibax till after you have defeated it in the one-star raids. You will have to continue doing these raids till you get a shiny encounter.

A Shiny Frigibax caught in one-star raids will have 662-712 CP normally or 827-891 CP if weather-boosted. Since this is a Tier-1 raid battle, you should be able to defeat the critter without a hitch. That said, Fairy- and Steel-type Pokemon are going to be the most effective against it.
