Pokemon Go September 1 Spotlight Hour: Everything You Need to Know
Start September by earning extra experience points!
Trainers, it’s a new month, which means there are new Spotlight Hour events to look forward to in Pokemon Go!
The first Spotlight Hour event for the month will take place on September 1 from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. local time. During this one-hour event, Eevee will appear more often than normal in the wild, and you’ll receive two times the normal amount of experience points when you capture Pokemon. This experience point bonus will apply to every Pokemon you capture during this event, and not just Eevee.
If you want to make the most of this event, remember that you can activate an Incense to attract wild Pokemon to your location. This will allow you to participate in the Spotlight Hour festivities without even leaving the house.
Plus, keep in mind that the Shiny version of Eevee is already available to encounter in Pokemon Go. While there’s no guarantee you’ll come across a Shiny Eevee during this Spotlight Hour event, you’ll be able to check tons of Eevee in a short amount of time, so your chances of finding one will be increased.
Following this week’s Spotlight Hour event, there are still four more Spotlight Hours to look forward to in the month of September. Here’s the breakdown:
- September 8: Houndour
- September 15: Tentacool
- September 22: Spearow
- September 29: Skitty
Make sure to mark your calendars so you don’t miss out on any of this month’s events!
