Spotlight Hour Deep Dive:

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

• Murkrow: A relatively rare spawn, evolving into Honchkrow requires 100 Murkrow Candy and a Sinnoh Stone. Honchkrow's offensive capabilities are noteworthy, but its defensive stats are weaker.

• Slugma & Bergmite: This double feature offers a chance to catch both a Fire and Ice type. Bergmite evolves into Avalugg (50 Candy), a solid Ice-type for Raids and GO Battle League. Slugma evolves into Macargo (50 Candy), but is less strategically valuable.

• Delibird (Holiday): A rare, costumed variant, primarily valuable for collectors. Not a strong battler.

• Togetic: A rarer wild spawn, evolving into Togekiss (100 Candy + Sinnoh Stone). Togekiss is highly valued for both 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 extra time for sorting and transferring Pokémon after the event.
• Use in-game search filters (e.g., "4*&age0", "3*&age0", "4*&[Pokémon Name]") to identify high-IV catches.
