Spotlight Hour Deep Dive:

This section provides insights into each Pokémon's rarity, evolution requirements, and battle effectiveness.

Murkrow: A relatively rare spawn, making this Spotlight Hour crucial for Candy accumulation and evolving into Honchkrow (requires 100 Candy + Sinnoh Stone). While Honchkrow's offensive capabilities are strong, its defensive stats are weaker.

Slugma & Bergmite: A dual Spotlight Hour. Bergmite's evolution, Avalugg (50 Candy), is a valuable Ice-type for Raids and GO Battle League. Slugma evolves into Macargo (50 Candy), but its battle utility is limited.

Delibird: A rare Holiday-themed Pokémon. Primarily valuable for collectors seeking a Shiny variant; its battle effectiveness is low.

Togetic: A relatively rare wild spawn. Evolves into Togekiss (100 Candy + Sinnoh Stone), a top-tier Pokémon for Raids and GO Battle League. Prioritize this Spotlight Hour.

Spotlight Hour Preparation:

• Stock up on Poké Balls.
• Utilize Lucky Eggs, Star Pieces, and Incense.
• Allocate time for post-event sorting and transferring.
• Strategically use items to maximize each hour's bonus (e.g., transferring duplicates before Delibird's Spotlight Hour).
• Use in-game search filters (e.g., "4*&age0", "3*&age0", "4*&[Pokemon Name]") to identify high-IV Pokémon.
