This Spotlight Hour is the first June 2024 Pokémon spotlight, and it is especially interesting as Makuhita can be shiny and you will get 2x Candy on catch! In other words, this is a great time to farm those Makuhita candies!
Trainers who plan to participate should be prepared with a Mega Pokémon to maximise candy gains per Makuhita caught. Here’s everything you need to know!

The following Pokémon will grant you extra bonuses when catching Makuhita if they are Mega/Primal evolved.
A Note on Mega Catch Bonus
While a Pokémon is Mega-Evolved, additional XP and Candy is granted when catching a Pokémon that shares a type with it, or for any raid boss caught. These do not stack with each other. Additionally, High and Max Level Mega-Evolved Pokémon grant an increased chance to obtain Candy XL when catching a Pokémon that shares a type with it.
Hariyama is one of the strongest Generation III additions to Pokemon GO, bringing a completely new alternative to Machamp and Heracross. It fills a particularly sought after niche: an affordable, top tier, fighting type Pokemon to use in raids.
Hariyama is bulky, powerful and has access to some of the best fighting moves in the game: Counter and Dynamic Punch.
