In Pokémon GO, there is once again a Spotlight Hour today. During this time, Pygraulon and a Stardust bonus are waiting for you.
What kind of event is this? The Spotlight Hour is a recurring event in Pokémon GO. In this event, one or more Pokémon are featured and appear in large numbers. The event takes place every Tuesday.
Additionally, the event brings a bonus that you can benefit from during the event.
In today’s Spotlight Hour, you can expect Pygraulon. The Psychic Pokémon from the 5th generation has an evolution called Megalon.
Spotlight Hour on May 21 – Start and Bonuses
When does the Spotlight Hour start? The Spotlight Hour starts as usual at 6:00 PM. It lasts for 60 minutes and ends at 7:00 PM.
What bonuses are active? If you catch Pokémon during the event, you will receive double the amount of Stardust for them. It doesn’t matter which Pokémon you catch.
Can you catch Shiny Pygraulon? Yes, with a bit of luck, you might also encounter the Shiny variant of Pygraulon.
Is the Spotlight Hour worth it? If you plan to use Pygraulon or its evolution for raids or in the Battle League, you will be disappointed. The two Pokémon are not good in the Battle League, nor do they rank among the best attackers in Pokémon GO.
If you are a Shiny hunter, the event might be more worthwhile for you. The chance of encountering a Shiny Pygraulon is not increased, but with the large number of spawns, there are many Pygraulon that could potentially appear as Shiny.
Additionally, you can slightly increase your supply of Stardust through the Stardust bonus. While Pygraulon is not among the Pokémon that give you more Stardust, you can still benefit from the high number of spawns.
Are you excited for the Spotlight Hour? Will you participate and catch as many Pygraulon as possible? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments. Besides the Spotlight Hours, there are of course other events taking place in the remaining days of the month. You can find an overview of the events in May 2024 in Pokémon GO on our site.
