Last month,Pokemon GOfeatured a Limited Research day for Alolan Meowth, and also offered encounters for the Kanto version of Meowth. If players were not satisfied with catching the famous Pokemon associated withTeam Rocket, there will be another chance to catch as many Meowths as possible. A Kanto Meowth Spotlight Hour will run today from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. local time.
Although Spotlight Hours do not increase shiny rates, this is a great opportunity to find a shiny Meowth. However, some may overlook the shiny version because of the subtle changes. A shiny Kanto Meowth appears with a darker body and dark pink toes and ears instead of the normal brown color. If catching a shiny Meowth is not at the top of the to-do list inPokemon GO, the Spotlight Hour also grants double catch candy.

The Spotlight Hour intersects theMeltan eventthat started today at 8 a.m local time and will run until 10 p.m. on November 23rd. The event will give players chances to encounter Meltans with a chance for shinies by activating a Mystery Box. The Mystery Box item can be earned by trading a Pokemon to aPokemon, Let’s Gogame, or by completing a Meltan research. Players can use the Spotlight Hour to use Mystery Boxes to spawn Meltans and earn double catch Candy, which is extremely important for Meltan because evolution requires a whopping 400 candy.
The Meowth Spotlight Hour has many opportunities for players toevolve a Pokemonor find a shiny one. If players already have a shiny Meowth, the double catch candy will make evolving it into a shiny Persian easier. Although Meowth is a fairly common Pokemon, the Spotlight Hour double catch candy will be helpful given the many events and days planned for November and December.
If players missed out on the last Community Day, there is still one remaining in November.The next Community Dayis on November 21st and features the fire-type Pokemon Magmar. During this Community Day, Magmar can evolve and will learn the special move Thunderbolt.
