Spotlight Hour on August 13, 2024 – Start and Bonuses
When does the Spotlight Hour start? The event starts on 08/13/2024 at 6:00 PM. It ends at 7:00 PM, and the usual spawns will return.
Which bonus is active? You will receive double candies for all monsters you catch during this time. This also applies to raid bosses, for example.
Is there a Shiny Liliep? Yes, you can catch it. However, the chance is not increased, so you’ll need a lot of luck.
Is the Spotlight Hour worth it? Not really. Liliep is not one of the best attackers in Pokémon GO. The same goes for its evolution Wielie. Neither is useful as a raid attacker.
There are many better alternatives in the PvP League. The evolution Wielie ranks 99th in the PvPoke rankings (via pvpoke.com).
Ultimately, the event is most worthwhile if you take advantage of the candy bonus for other monsters. Such as the current raid bosses in the gyms, Rocket rewards, or for monsters from saved field research. Liliep and Wielie are only worthwhile if you like to collect – if you still need the Pokédex entry or wish to catch the shiny variant. Overall, there are more exciting dates this month: All events in Pokémon GO in August 2024.
