Pokemon GO has many events that take place each week, but one important one is the Spotlight Hour. These events take place every Tuesday, and they are the perfect way for players to use their stocked-up Pokeballs and berries to catch one specific Pokemon.
Players also have a better chance of getting a Shiny Pokemon during these events. So staying tuned to which Pokemon are involved in the event is important for Pokemon GO players. Not only can they get a rarer version of their Pokemon, but they can also get candy by transferring the extra Pokemon they don’t want, which makes leveling up their Pokemon even easier in Pokemon GO. For any players wondering when Pokemon GO’s Spotlight Hours will take place in March 2025, we’ve got all the info in the guide below.

During these events, players will be able to possibly get a Shiny version of the Pokemon highlighted for that week, but it is also a great opportunity to transfer any Pokemon the player doesn’t want, so they can collect candy for that Pokemon. This will make it easier to power them up and make them as strong as they can be, as well as get them more attack moves.
Players will want to do a couple of things to be prepared for the event. First, they should make sure that they have a stock of Pokeballs, as they will go through them quickly during the event. Second, players will want to make sure they have some Great Balls and Berries, just in case they come across a Shiny. Lastly, it is smart to have some extra space for Pokemon, since players will be catching a lot during the Spotlight Hour.
