Players can collect extra Pokemon Candy for a limited time.
The next Pokemon Go Spotlight Hour event will take place on September 20, 2022 from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. local time.
During this event, Aron will appear more frequently than normal in the wild and players will receive two times the normal number of Pokemon Candy when catching Pokemon.
Aron is a Steel- and Rock-type Pokemon from the third generation of the Pokemon universe. In Pokemon Go, you can evolve Aron into Lairon using 25 Aron Candy, and then evolve Lairon into Aggron using 100 Aron Candy.
Shiny Aron is available in Pokemon Go. Shiny Aron has red eyes, rather than blue eyes.
To make the most of this week’s event, remember that you can activate an Incense to attract wild Pokemon to your location for a limited time. This will give you more Aron to encounter and more chances to potentially find a Shiny one.
In addition, you can toss Pinap Berries at Pokemon to receive double the normal number of Pokemon Candy when you catch 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.
Following this week’s Spotlight Hour, one more of these events is scheduled to take place in September 2022. On September 27, Minccino will appear more frequently than normal in the wild and players will receive two times the normal number of Pokemon Candy when transferring Pokemon.
