Today, July 26, the weekly Spotlight Hour takes place in Pokémon GO. This week, the Pokémon Meditie is in focus. We at MeinMMO show you when the event starts, what bonuses are available, and whether it is worth it for you.
What kind of event is this? The Spotlight Hour takes place weekly on Tuesday evenings in Pokémon GO. During this hour, one Pokémon is highlighted, which appears more frequently than its counterparts.
This week, a Psychic and Fighting type Pokémon, Meditie, is in focus. Additionally, you will receive more experience when evolving Pokémon. Two weeks ago, Machollo, a strong fighting Pokémon, was featured in the Spotlight Hour.
Spotlight Hour with Meditie – Start, Bonuses & Shiny
When does the Spotlight Hour start? As usual, the Spotlight Hour starts today at 6:00 PM German time. From this time, Meditie will appear more frequently for 60 minutes, until the event ends at 7:00 PM with increased spawns.
What bonuses are there? During the hour with Meditie, you will receive a bonus on the experience gained from evolving Pokémon. This means that you can collect double the amount of XP for all evolutions between 6:00 PM and 7:00 PM. This applies to all Pokémon, not just Meditie itself.
Is there a Shiny variant of Meditie? Yes, both Meditie and its evolution Meditalis are available in their shiny form in Pokémon GO and can be obtained during the Spotlight Hour with some luck. However, there is no bonus for shiny Pokémon during the event.
Is the Spotlight Hour with Meditie worth it?
How strong is Meditie: You can’t really do much with Meditie itself if you want to battle. However, things look different with its evolution Meditalis. Especially in the Super League in PvP, Meditalis can really shine.
Aside from that, the Pokémon isn’t particularly worthwhile if you’re only looking for strong attackers. In both Fighting and Psychic types, other Pokémon clearly outshine it when it comes to gym battles and raids.
Who is the Spotlight Hour worth it for? If you’re missing a Psychic-Fighting Pokémon for the Super League, today’s Spotlight Hour could be interesting for you. Also, if you’re still missing a shiny version of Meditie or its evolution, you should try your luck today.
The XP bonus on all evolutions also makes the event interesting for anyone who still needs a little experience for the next level. If you’re looking for a really strong Pokémon for raids and can do without the rest, you might come up empty-handed this evening.
