Trapinch Spotlight Hour Event Details
Spotlight Events are special weekly events held in Pokemon Go. During these events a target Pokemon becomes more widely encountered while players are out exploring in the wild. On Tuesday, April 18, 2023 the Trapinch Spotlight Hour will occur. Here’s all of the details you need to know about the upcoming Trapinch event:
| Pokemon: | Trapinch |
| Date: | April 18 |
| Time: | 6pm – 7pm Local Time |
| Event Bonus: | 2x XP for evolving Pokemon |
While the event is live players will encounter Trapinch more often in the wild. This makes it the prime target for catching as many. During the event you will want to catch as many Trapinch as possible to allow you to evolve it into Vibrava and then Flygon if you don’t already have these Pokemon.
Can Trapinch be Shiny during the Spotlight Hour
Another good use for Spotlight Hour can be shiny hunting the event Pokemon. While the Trapinch Spotlight Hour is active players can encounter shiny Trapinch in the wild. This means you will have a higher chance of getting the Pokemon’s shiny variant if you are into shiny hunting.
Tips to Prepare for the Spotlight Hour
Before signing off I just wanted to give you some prep tips leading into the Spotlight Hour tomorrow. As always you can do a little bit of work before the event to ensure you are ready to go. The major thing to focus on is ensuring you have enough Poke Balls available to last you the full hour. You can purchase more Poke Balls or simply focus on completing tasks in-game to earn more.
Additionally you may also want to go to more high spawn areas to ensure you are getting the most Trapinch you can find during the hour. You can also improve the spawn rate by placing Lure Modules and using Incense to ensure the most Trapinch appear during the hour.
