Spotlight Hour Deep Dive:

This section provides insights into each Pokémon's rarity, evolution requirements, and battle effectiveness.

  • Murkrow: A relatively rare spawn, evolving into Honchkrow requires 100 candies and a Sinnoh Stone. Honchkrow boasts solid offense but weaker defense in PvP.

  • Slugma & Bergmite: This double feature presents a chance to catch both. Bergmite evolves into Avalugg (50 candies), a strong Ice-type for Raids and GO Battle League. Slugma evolves into Macargo (50 candies), less useful in battles.

  • Delibird (Holiday): A rare costumed variant, primarily for collectors. Limited battle utility.

  • Togetic: A rare wild spawn, evolving into Togekiss (100 candies and a Sinnoh Stone). Togekiss excels in GO Battle League and Raids. Prioritize this Spotlight Hour!

Spotlight Hour Preparation:

Stock up on Poké Balls, activate Lucky Eggs, Star Pieces, and Incense. Plan for post-event sorting and utilize search commands (e.g., "4*&age0", "3*&age0", "4*&[Pokémon Name]") to find your best catches. Strategically utilize event bonuses (e.g., transfer candies for Delibird, evolution XP for Togetic).

Pokémon GO is available now.
