Players can collect extra Pokemon Candy for a limited time.
The next Pokemon Go Spotlight Hour event will take place on April 11, 2023 from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. local time.
During this event, Shellder will appear more frequently than normal in the wild and players will receive two times the normal number of Pokemon Candy when transferring Pokemon.
Shellder is a Water-type Pokemon from the first generation of the Pokemon universe. In Pokemon Go, you can evolve Shellder into Cloyster using 50 Shellder Candy.
Shiny Shellder is available in Pokemon Go. Shiny Shellder is orange, rather than purple.
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 Shellder to encounter and more chances to potentially find a Shiny one.
Following this week’s Spotlight Hour, two more of these events are scheduled to take place in April 2023. Here’s the schedule:
April 18, 2023 – Trapinch (Players will receive two times the normal number of experience points when evolving Pokemon)
April 25, 2023 – Tangela (Players will receive two times the normal number of experience points when catching Pokemon)
