Pokemon GO Spotlight Hour events feature a single Pocket Monster with an increased spawn rate for the event’s duration. Among the mini-event's various features is Lechonk, a Normal-type monster with a Shiny probability. The Spotlight Hour also offers a special bonus, and the increased spawn rate serves as an excellent opportunity to farm Candy.
The Normal-type Lechonk has a maximum CP of 828, which increases to 2949 when it evolves into an Oinkologne (Male) and 2819 as an Oinkologne (Female). Lechonk’s Stat spread comprises 81 ATK, 79 DEF, and 144 STA, but evolving the monster increases the Stats significantly. Pokemon GO players can use the Spotlight Hour guide and collect Candy to initiate the evolution. That said, this guide explores everything one needs to know about the Lechonk Spotlight Hour event.

Pokemon GO: Lechonk Spotlight Hour And Bonuses
The Lechonk Spotlight Hour event runs for an hour so that the players can participate in the event from Tuesday, November 28, at 6 PM till Tuesday, November 28, at 7 PM Local Time. Lechonk experiences a significant boost in its wild spawn rate during the event’s run time, and the Spotlight Hour also offers a special Pokemon GO bonus of 2× Catch XP.
The Lechonk Spotlight Hour participants might also encounter a Shiny Lechonk in the wild. The event-exclusive increase in spawn rate can significantly help players catch up to Lechonk’s Shiny odds. Once a Shiny Lechonk is caught, Pokemon GO trainers can then get their hands on a Shiny Oinkologne. Lechonk and Oinkologne have amazing move pools, but Oinkologne performs better in PvP and PvE battle scenarios.
Pokemon GO: How To Get Shiny Lechonk
The boosted Lechonk spawn rate during Spotlight Hour lets participants encounter it quickly. Increased spawn rate may help players catch up to the monster’s Shiny odds. Players can also use different Pokemon GO items to enhance the spawn rate further and fortify their chances of catching a Shiny Lechonk.
Pokemon GO Lure Modules, Incense, and the Weather Boost function can significantly increase wild Pokemon spawn rates. Lure Modules attach to PokeStops/Gyms, Incense attaches to players, and Weather Boost enhances spawn rates in specific weather conditions.
For Lechonk, focus on areas with partly cloudy weather. One has to look for PokeStops or Gyms in these weather condition, use a Lure Module, activate Incense, and walk around to maximize spawn rates. This strategy works well during Pokemon GO events that feature Lechonk and may improve the odds of encountering Shiny Lechonk.
