What is a Spotlight Hour? This event takes place every Tuesday evening in Pokémon GO. For about an hour, one Pokémon is the focus of the game and can be caught at every corner. A bonus rounds off the event.
This week, the Kanto Pokémon Krabby is in the spotlight. We will show you what you need to know about the event.
Spotlight with Krabby – All Info
When does the event start? As always, the kickoff is at 6:00 PM local time. The event will be active for an hour and should end around 7:00 PM.
The bonuses of the event: During the event time, you will find Krabby nearly everywhere in the wild. A good chance to secure a few strong specimens for your collection.
Additionally, you will receive double candies for sending Pokémon. So if you have been meaning to clean up your Pokémon collection, you should do it during the event. Because you will receive more candies than usual.
Are there shiny Krabby? Yes, the shiny version of Krabby is already active. You can catch shiny Krabby in Pokémon GO since October 2018.
How good are Krabby and Kingler?
Is the hour worth it? You can’t do much with Krabby itself in Pokémon GO. It mainly benefits trainers who still want to collect shinies.
It took until August 2019 for Kingler to suddenly play an important role in Pokémon GO. With the Water Festival in Pokémon GO, the move Crabhammer was introduced, making Kingler suddenly the strongest water attacker.
In terms of strength, Kingler is a special choice. With the moveset consisting of Bubble and Crabhammer, it is even slightly stronger than the legendary Pokémon Kyogre in pure DPS. However, Kyogre is the better choice in most raids due to its tank factor. Thus, Kingler ranks second among the best water attackers in Pokémon GO.
If you are still looking for strong water attackers, you should take advantage of the Spotlight Hour today.
What’s next? After the Spotlight Hour, more events await you this week. The raid hour on Wednesday is coming up and Thursday marks the start of a bonus week in Pokémon GO for the first time. In the coming weeks, many more dates will begin. We have compiled all events in March 2021 for Pokémon GO and show you which ones are worth it.
