Tonight Is Swirlix Spotlight Hour In Pokémon GO: January 2023

Tonight is Swirlix Spotlight Hour in Pokémon GO. Can it be Shiny? What are the Spotlight Hour bonuses? Find out everything here.

Tonight is Swirlix Spotlight Hour in Pokémon GO. From 6–7 PM tonight, Tuesday, January 10th, this Fairy-type Pokémon will appear with increased frequency in the wild. It will also be responding more frequently to Incense and will 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 of five Spotlight Hours of January 2023 in Pokémon GO. Keep reading for a full breakdown of the upcoming Spotlight Hours for this month but first, let's get into the details of tonight's offering and bonus.

The main question of the night is, of course, can Swirlix be Shiny. The answer is yes! Shiny Swirlix looks noticeably different from its standard form. The regular Swirlix, depicted above, is mostly white with slight pink shades, pink ears, pink feet, pink eyes, and a pink tongue. Shiny Swirlix is a light tan/cream color with brown eyes and brown feet. Its eyes and tongue remain pink.

Tonight's Spotlight Hour bonus is a good one: double Stardust for catching. To take advantage of this bonus, be sure to drop two Star Pieces at the start of Swirlix Spotlight Hour, as each of these will last half an hour.

• January 17th, 2023: Seedot with double XP for catching
• January 24th, 2023: Tynamo with double Candy for catching
