Prioritise Catching Mankey
This Mankey Spotlight Hour is a straightforward opportunity to stock up on Catch Candy, especially since you’ll be getting double the amount. If you’re looking to power up or evolve a Primeape, this is your moment. Mankey isn't the top fighter in the current meta, but it can still be a fun addition for collectors or for those looking to complete their Pokédex.
Bonuses to Consider
The 2× Catch Candy bonus is the main incentive for participating in this event. While there's no shiny Mankey available this time, maximizing your candy haul can help you evolve Mankey into Primeape or power it up for future use. Stocking up on candy can be particularly useful if you plan to invest in a competitive Primeape once it gets the right moveset.
Is It Worth Your Time?
If you’re actively working on your Mankey collection or need candy for evolutions, then this Spotlight Hour is worth your while. However, if you're not particularly interested in Mankey or its evolution, you might want to spend your time elsewhere, especially since there are no shiny chances or standout raid bosses this time around. Focus on catching as many as you can to make the most of the candy bonus, but don’t feel pressured if you have other priorities this week.
