The next spotlight hour in Pokémon GO takes place today. We will show you all information about the event with Mangunior on January 28, 2025.
What is the spotlight hour? This event runs every week, always on Tuesday. For an hour, a Pokémon is placed in the eponymous ramp light. It then appears everywhere in the wilderness of Pokémon GO. So you have 60 minutes to secure strong specimens.
At the same time, there is always a bonus that should make the hour a little more interesting.
This week: The Pokémon of the day is Mangunior. It belongs to the type normal and brings a development: mangus pector. On top of that, there is the diversion bonus as a bonus today: you will receive double candies for all Pokémon that you send to the professor in the ramping lesson.

Ramp light hour with Mangunior-start, information, bonuses
When does the spotlight hour start? The event starts today, on January 28, 2025, at 6:00 p.m. Then there is the Mangunior Spawns for 60 minutes before continuing with the usual spawns.
Is there Shiny Mangunior? Yes, Mangunior also exists in the Shiny variant. This is how it looks:
However, keep in mind that there is no increased Shiny chance for Mangunior. It is as rare as usual. However, it is a very good opportunity to find it to find it tonight by the massive advent of the Pokémon. But you definitely need luck.
Is Mangunior worthwhile? Conditional, because neither Mangunior nor mangus pector is particularly strong Pokémon. Neither is worth it as a raid or PvP attacker. You can find significantly better alternatives in the list of best attackers. The catch is particularly worthwhile if you need the Pokédex entry or want to collect the Shiny or a 4-star variant of the monster.
Is the bonus worthwhile? The s forces bonus is especially nice if you want to empty your Pokébox again in order to be able to catch more afterwards. You get double candies for every monster sent, so you can increase your candy supply a little. It is always helpful to mark your Pokémon with tags beforehand so that you don’t have to sort around in an hour before you know what you want to send.
Mangunior decides the ramp light lessons this month, it is the last event of this kind in January. In the coming month it will continue with the next ramping hours.
