Spotlight Hour Deep Dive:

This section provides a closer look at each Pokémon's rarity, evolution requirements, and battle effectiveness.

Murkrow: A relatively rare spawn, making this Spotlight Hour ideal for candy accumulation and potential Honchcrow evolution (requires 100 Murkrow Candy + Sinnoh Stone). Honchcrow's offensive capabilities are decent, useful in raids.

Slugma & Bergmite: A double feature! Bergmite (evolves into Avalugg with 50 Candy) is a rarer spawn, while Slugma (evolves into Magcargo with 50 Candy) is less useful in battles. Avalugg excels in raids and GO Battle League (Master League).

Delibird (Holiday): A rare, costumed variant. Primarily for collectors and Shiny hunters; limited battle utility.

Togetic: A relatively rare wild spawn. Evolves into Togekiss (100 Candy + Sinnoh Stone), a highly valuable Pokémon for GO Battle League and Raids. Prioritize this Spotlight Hour!
