Today, on January 18, 2022, there is a Spotlight Hour featuring Plusle in Pokémon GO. We at MeinMMO will show you when the event starts, whether the little monster is available as Shiny, and what bonuses you can look forward to.
What is a Spotlight Hour? In Pokémon GO, a one-hour event takes place every Tuesday, featuring a specific Pokémon in the spotlight. This Pokémon spawns more frequently during this time. Additionally, it brings you an extra bonus.
In today’s Spotlight Hour, you will encounter the Electric-type Pokémon Plusle. It comes from the 3rd generation of games and has no pre-evolutions or evolutions. You can also look forward to a candy bonus.
Spotlight Hour with Plusle – Start, Shiny, and Bonuses
When does the Spotlight Hour take place? The short event starts today, on January 18, 2022, at 6:00 PM local time. You have one hour to take advantage of the Spotlight Hour until it ends at 7:00 PM.
These are the bonuses: During the Spotlight Hour, you will encounter numerous Plusle. They will spawn at every corner, and by activating a Lure, additional specimens will be attracted.
Additionally, you can look forward to a candy bonus today. You will receive double candy when catching Pokémon.
Is there Shiny Plusle? Yes, Plusle is also available in its shiny form in the game. As you can see in the following image, the red on Plusle’s body is slightly darker in its Shiny form.
Is the Spotlight Hour with Plusle worth it?
Plusle is one of the monsters that is not particularly strong. Its stats are all rather average, which is why it doesn’t play a role in raids and the PvP league. Therefore, the candy bonus for catching Plusle is rather uninteresting. Today’s Spotlight Hour is mainly for Shiny hunters.
If you want to use the candy bonus for something else, you could alternatively activate your Mystery Box instead of a Lure during the Spotlight Hour and catch Meltan.
Will you take advantage of the Spotlight Hour with Plusle today? Or is the event not for you? Feel free to share your thoughts with us here on MeinMMO in the comments.
Tomorrow, a new event will start in Pokémon GO. We have taken a look at which Shinies and bonuses you can expect for the Power Plant event and which monster will debut.
