Spotlight Hour Deep Dive:

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

• Murkrow: Relatively rare, evolves into Honchkrow (100 Candy + Sinnoh Stone). Honchkrow's offensive capabilities are strong, making it useful in Raids.

• Slugma & Bergmite: A dual feature. Bergmite (rare spawn) evolves into Avalugg (50 Candy), a valuable Ice-type for Raids and GO Battle League. Slugma (increasingly rare) evolves into Macargo (50 Candy), less useful in battles.

• Delibird (Holiday Ribbon): A rare, festive variant. Primarily a collector's item, not highly effective in battle.

• Togetic: 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 post-event for sorting and transferring Pokémon.
• Strategically use items to maximize bonus effects (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 catches.

Pokémon GO is available now.
