Pokémon Spotlight Hour

29 posts

In Pokémon Go, the Spotlight Hour is a weekly event that will feature one unique, surprise Pokémon and a special bonus effect. This incentive was once offered during the Mystery Bonus Hour, however it was combined with the Spotlight Hour at the beginning of April 2020.

Every Tuesday during Spotlight Hour, which runs from 6 p.m. to 6:59 p.m. local time, a single Pokémon will appear more often in Pokémon Go. Spotlight Hour is your opportunity to stock up on sweets, catch high-level Pokémon, and, if you’re fortunate, catch a Shiny Pokémon. Every Spotlight Hour event features an active benefit that participants may use in addition to a new Pokémon each week.

According to statistics acquired by Pokémon community The Silph Road, Shiny rates do not seem to be raised during Spotlight Hours. The sheer quantity of Pokémon that appear during the hour-long weekly event, on the other hand, increases your chances of clicking on a random Shiny.

    Mamoswine as an Ice and Ground-type raid attacker: Is 6*L50 Shadow Mamoswine worth it?

    The post Mamoswine as an Ice and Ground-type raid attacker: Is 6*L50 Shadow Mamoswine worth it? appeared first on Pokémon GO Hub. Edit: I forgot to consider Zygarde raids, which are also best countered by Mamoswine. It should still be duoable by L30 regular Mamoswines with best friends, but harder than Rayquaza and Landorus. More discussions here. TL;DR – If you want to DUO Mega Rayquaza, yes! (Summary “infographic” below) Shadow Mamoswine dominates types, and is a […]
