Pokemon Go Shroomish Spotlight Hour date & time

The Pokemon Go Shroomish Spotlight Hour event takes place on Tuesday, October 10, 2023, from 6 PM to 7 PM local time.

You can encounter hundreds of Shroomish spawns around your location during the entire hour.

Can Shroomish be shiny in Pokemon Go?

Yes, lucky players can find shiny Shroomish during its Spotlight Hour event in Pokemon Go.

Though the Spotlight Hour boosts the spawn rate of the featured species, the shiny rate remains the usual and is not boosted like Community Day events. So, the odds of finding a shiny Shroomish in its Spotlight Hour is 1 in 500 or 0.2% chance.

Pokemon Go Shroomish Spotlight Hour bonus

You can enjoy a bonus of 2x XP for evolving any Pokemon during the Pokemon Go Shroomish Spotlight Hour. A Lucky Egg gives you bonus XP, so it’s a good idea to drop this item and then evolve any Pokemon.

Also, Shroomish offers 500 Stardust when caught, so we recommend running two Star Pieces during the event to get 50% more Stardust from each catch.

Pokemon Go Shroomish evolution

Shroomish evolves into Breloom with 50 Candy in Pokemon Go.

Breloom is a Grass/Fighting Pokemon and its Fighting-type moves make it strong in Raids and Gym battles.
