All March 2024 Spotlight Hours
Spotlight Hours are a great way for players to hunt for the shiny forms of the Pokemon featured. A specific Pokemon will have its spawn greatly increased in the wild, increasing the chance for players to encounter a shiny. It’s not all about shiny hunting though, as each Spotlight Hour has its own bonus to incentivize players to join in on the fun. These bonuses come in the form of double XP, double Candy, double Stardust, and much more.
This month, March 2024, Spotlight Hours will take place on each consecutiveTuesday(March 5,March 12,March 19, andMarch 26),from 6 pm to 7 pm local time. The Spotlight Hour on March 5 will feature Pawmi but, this time around, the featured Pokemon will not have its shiny form available in the game. The Spotlight Hour on March 19 is a bit different as well since it will feature four separate Pokemon (Hippopotas,Poliwag,Snorunt, andVulpix). While Spotlight Hours normally focus on one Pokemon, this one will feature four, each with its shiny form available.
