Pokémon GO trainers, get ready for Makuhita Spotlight Hour on June 4th, 2024, from 6:00 to 7:00 pm local time, featuring a 2x Catch Candy bonus. This is the first Spotlight Hour for June 2024 and is a great opportunity to stock up on Makuhita candies, especially since Shiny Makuhita is available.
During Makuhita Spotlight Hour, trainers can take advantage of the 2x Catch Candy bonus by catching as many Makuhita as possible. If you're not interested in the candy, you can also catch other Pokémon to make use of the bonus, such as saved Scatterbug or by opening a Mystery Box or Coin Bag. This bonus can also be used to get extra candy from catching raid bosses.
Makuhita is a Fighting-type Pokémon with a maximum CP of 924. Its best moveset includes Tackle and Cross Chop. Makuhita is weak to Fairy, Flying, and Psychic moves, but strong against Bug, Dark, and Rock moves. To evolve Makuhita into Hariyama, you will need 50 Makuhita candies.
Shiny Makuhita has a unique appearance with its grey gloves and bib turning into a salmon pink color. Good luck with your shiny hunting during Makuhita Spotlight Hour!
During the event, using a Mega Pokémon that boosts Makuhita, such as Mega Heracross, Mega Blaziken, Mega Medicham, or Mega Lopunny, can provide additional bonuses when catching Makuhita. Mega-Evolved Pokémon grant extra XP and Candy when catching Pokémon of the same type, with increased chances to obtain Candy XL at higher levels.
Evolving Makuhita into Hariyama is worth considering, as Hariyama is a top-tier Fighting-type Pokémon with access to powerful moves like Counter and Dynamic Punch. It is a strong addition to your raid team and can fill a valuable niche in battles.
Don't miss out on Makuhita Spotlight Hour and make the most of the 2x Catch Candy bonus to enhance your Pokémon collection and strengthen your team for future battles. Happy hunting, trainers!
