Tonight Is Slowpoke Spotlight Hour In Pokémon GO: Adventures Abound
Tonight Is Slowpoke Spotlight Hour in Pokémon GO. Here, you can learn how to take advantage of the special bonus and differentiate the Shiny.
Tonight is Slowpoke Spotlight Hour in Pokémon GO. From 6–7 PM tonight, Tuesday, October 3rd, 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 first Spotlight Hour of October 2023 in Pokémon GO, continuing the new Season entitled Adventures Abound. We have the full details for the Spotlight Hours coming to the game in October 2023, so keep reading.
Slowpoke can indeed be Shiny, but keep an eye out… because it's not exactly easy to tell. The standard Slowpoke is pictured above, and the Shiny is just a touch lighter pink, so all I can say is watch out for that burst of sparkles. For the Spotlight Hour bonus, here's a tip. Queue up a big transfer by selecting the Pokémon you'd like to part with before the Spotlight Hour begins. Then, when 6 p.m. hits, execute the transfer, because tonight's bonus is double Candy for transferring.
