- All April 2024 Spotlight Hours
Pokemon GO players have access to several different in-game events throughout the year, but one of the most consistent (and worth-while) are the Spotlight Hours. These take place on a weekly basis and featured a different Pokemon each time.
Pokemon GO Fest: All Spawns, Bonuses, & Shiny Pokemon
If you want to know which shiny Pokemon will be available during Pokemon GO Fest 2024, we’ve got your answers!
While shiny rates aren’t boosted during Spotlight Hours, like they are for Community Day events, they provide players with the opportunity to catch several Pokemon of a specific species. The more Pokemon a trainer clicks on, the likelier it is that they encounter a shiny, so players should take full advantage of these events while they are around.
All April 2024 Spotlight Hours
There is a great lineup of Pokemon featured in this month’s Spotlight Hours. An exciting note for players is that all Pokemon featured in Spotlight Hours this month can be shiny, so if any of the Pokemon listed below are desirable to a trainer, they should be sure to catch as many Pokemon as possible during the specified Spotlight Hour.
While all Spotlight Hours take place on different days, each event will start at 6 pm and end at 7 pm local time, no matter the day.
