In Pokémon GO, the spotlight hour with Nidoran starts today, March 12, 2024. Here in the guide we show you everything about the times, shines and bonuses of the short event.
What kind of event is this? Every Tuesday evening, Pokémon GO starts a spotlight hour for you. For a duration of 60 minutes, the focus is on one Pokémon along with a bonus. Niantic determines which combination of Pokémon and bonus is active at the beginning of each month.
Today you will meet the Pokémon Nidoran (female) from the first generation of the game. It is of the Poison type and can evolve into Nidorina and Nidoqueen.
Spotlight Hour on March 12th – Launch, Shiny and Bonuses
When does it start? As you know from previous spotlight hours, the event starts today at 6:00 p.m. local time. The content will then be active for you for one hour. The event ends again at 7:00 p.m.
Which bonuses are active? During the event period you will see wild Nidoran almost everywhere in Pokémon GO. If you want to attract more of these Pokémon, you can light smoke.
You will also receive double the amount of stardust for catching Pokémon.
The second spotlight hour in March 2024 is running today. We have summarized the RL hours that await you this month for you here:
Can you catch Shiny Nidoran? Yes, the dazzling form of Nidoran has been around in Pokémon GO for a long time. With a bit of luck you can catch them during the event today. But keep in mind that the chances of getting shinys are not increased during spotlight hours.
Is today’s spotlight hour worth it? Nidoran and his developments are not particularly strong as fighters in either PvP or raids. In the Hyper League, Nidoqueen is quite good, but has some better alternatives.
What is definitely worth it for you is the stardust bonus. Even if you don’t need the Pokémon, participating can make sense for you. So you can easily replenish your stock today.
