Tonight Is Mankey Spotlight Hour In Pokémon GO: Adventures Abound
Tonight is Mankey Spotlight Hour in Pokémon GO, the second Spotlight of the Adventures Abound. These are the details of this week's event.
Tonight is Mankey Spotlight Hour in Pokémon GO. From 6–7 PM tonight, Tuesday, September 12th, this Pokémon will appear throughout the hour with increased frequency in the wild. It will also respond more frequently to Incense and even pop up in spawn points that are not normally active. You will need to get out there and walk in order to activate that Incense buff, though. This is the second Spotlight Hour of September 2023 in Pokémon GO, continuing the new Season entitled Adventures Abound.
Mankey will be available in its Shiny form. Its Shiny form features light green fur instead of the off-white/tan color seen on the standard pictured above. Now, even if you do have both a Shiny Mankey and a Shiny Primeape, remember that there is a new evolution of Primeape called Infernape in the now active Paldea region. Infernape has not yet been released, but notice that the first two Spotlight Hours of the current month were both themed to Paldea, in that last week's Wooper has an as-of-yet unreleased Paldean form.
Today's Spotlight Hour bonus is double Candy for catching, and you do not need any items to take advantage of this bonus. Just catch and enjoy.
