In Pokémon GO today, on April 4th, the Spotlight Hour with Owei starts. We show you everything about the bonus, shinies, and the times of the event.
What kind of event is this? Every Tuesday, a Spotlight Hour takes place in Pokémon GO. This means that for 60 minutes, a Pokémon selected by Niantic is in focus and is found almost everywhere in the wild. This is accompanied by a bonus that gives you more XP, Stardust, or Candy. Pokémon and bonuses change week by week.
Today you will find the Pokémon Owei during the Spotlight Hour and you will receive additional candy.
Spotlight Hour on April 4th – Start, Bonuses, Shiny
When does it start? As you know from past events, the start is at 6:00 PM and the end is at 7:00 PM.
What bonuses are there? During the event, you will encounter Owei in many places in the wild. If you want even more encounters with the Pokémon, you can use incense.
Additionally, you will receive double the amount of candy for catching Pokémon.
Today’s event is the first Spotlight Hour in April 2023. This month, three more events of this kind will start. In the overview, you can see what else to expect:
Can you catch Shiny Owei? Yes, the shiny form of Owei has been active in Pokémon GO for a long time and can be caught by you. However, the chances are not increased today. You need a lot of luck.
Is the Spotlight Hour worth it today? Owei is not particularly strong as an attacker. Kokowei is much better, but has stronger alternatives in PvP and as a raid attacker. For beginners, at least Kokowei is something that can be seen in raids.
Keep in mind that the candy bonus applies to all caught Pokémon and not just Owei. If you complete raids, you will also receive double candy for catching there.
