It's Numel!
Trainers, the next Pokemon Go Spotlight Hour event will take place on May 10, 2022 from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. local time.
During this event, Numel will appear more frequently than normal in the wild, and players will receive two times the normal number of Pokemon Candy when transferring Pokemon to Professor Willow.
Numel is a Fire- and Ground-type Pokemon from the third generation of the Pokemon universe. In Pokemon Go, you can evolve Numel into Camerupt using 50 Numel Candy.
As of this writing, Shiny Numel is not available in Pokemon Go.
To make the most of this week’s event, we recommend holding onto any unwanted Pokemon you have in your inventory until this event begins. That way, you can transfer the Pokemon to Professor Willow during this Spotlight Hour event to earn two Candy for every Pokemon you transfer, rather than one.
Following this week’s Spotlight Hour, three more of these events are scheduled to take place in May 2022. Here’s the calendar:
