Stock up on Pokemon Candy!
Trainers, the final Pokemon Go Spotlight Hour event in November 2021 is scheduled to take place on November 30 from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. local time.
During this event, Piplup will appear more frequently than normal in the wild, and you’ll receive two times the normal number of Pokemon Candy when catching Pokemon.
Piplup is a Water-type Pokemon from the fourth generation of the Pokemon universe (it’s also one of the starter Pokemon players can choose from in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Pokemon Shining Pearl on Switch).
In Pokemon Go, you can evolve Piplup into Prinplup using 25 Piplup Candy and then evolve Prinplup into Empoleon using 100 Piplup Candy.
Shiny Piplup is available in Pokemon Go. Shiny Piplup is a teal color.
To make the most of this week’s Spotlight Hour event, remember that you can activate an Incense to attract wild Pokemon to your location for a limited time. This will give you more Piplup to encounter and more chances to potentially find a Shiny one.
Plus, remember that you can toss Pinap Berries at Pokemon to receive twice as many Pokemon Candy when you capture them. This Pinap Berry bonus will stack with the Spotlight Hour bonus, allowing you to earn lots of Pokemon Candy for each Pokemon you capture during this event.
