Jigglypuff is one of the oldest and most beloved Pokemon in the Pokedex, and soon, Pokemon GO Trainers will have a chance to get lots of this curly little friend, thanks to the Jigglypuff Spotlight Hour. Trainers all over the world will once more be on a quest to get that prized Shundo before the event is over.

Pokemon GO: How to Get Shiny Quaxly

Quaxly, the Water-type starter of Paldea, can be caught in both its regular and Shiny form in Pokemon GO, so here are some pointers.

Jigglypuff is a Normal-Fairy dual-type Pokemon , that evolves into Wigglytuff (also, from the same types). Jygglypuff's max CP is 818 (level 50 100% IV), while in its evolved form, it can reach up to 2178 CP at level 50 with Max IVs. But there's more than meets the eye with the balloon Pokémon, and this guide will reveal all the information trainers need to catch their perfect Jigglypuff during this event, including starting time, special bonuses, and how to get a Shiny Jigglypuff for their collection.

Pokemon GO: Jigglypuff Spotlight Hour Time & Bonuses

The Pokemon GO Jigglypuff Spotlight Hour will start on Tuesday, July 22, 2025, and run from 6 PM to 7 PM Local Time. Players will have one hour to enjoy a Jigglypuff spawning spree that will take over the map, and during the same time period, they will be able to enjoy double the amount of Candy earned for transferring Pokemon. This means that all those Jigglypuff that are sent to the Professor can be turned into power-up materials to boost the trainers' Hundos or Shundos, if they're lucky enough to catch those.

Using an Incense during Spotlight Hour events will help players attract even more Pokemon, making it easier to get a 100% IV specimen, or even a Shiny one.

Shiny Jigglypuff will be spawning during the event at normal rates, but since only Jigglypuff appears in the wild during the Spotlight Hour, players will have more chances to encounter one than on regular days. This Pokemon spawns more in Partly Cloudy weather, so players should take advantage of the Weather Boost conditions to get boosted encounters. Using Lure Modules or Incense might also be a good way to get more spawns, increasing the odds of finding a Shiny Jigglypuff near PokeStops or in the wild.

July 2025 Pokemon GO Spotlight Hour Schedule: Featured Pokemon, Bonuses, Shiny Variants and Evolutions

Here's everything you need to know about the featured Pokemon for Pokemon GO's Spotlight events in July 2025.

  • Shiny Jigglypuff is really hard to differentiate from its regular version, so pay attention to the Shiny Icon appearing above the Pokemon, as well as the glimmer effect around it when it spawns.
  • Look for PokeStops with Lure Modules active and gather around to increase spawning chances.
  • Activate the Incense while around active Lure Modules to further increase the chances for a Shiny Jigglypuff to appear.
  • Playing with friends is also a good chance to look for the perfect Jigglypuff (Shundo), and trainers can keep their Party-play feature on during the Spotlight Hour to earn more rewards and warn other players of Perfect Spawns in the wild (though the chances for them being Shiny might vary from player to player).
