Pokemon GO players are eager to explore the Season of Adventures Abound's event lineups, and the next on the list is the Wooper Spotlight Hour. During the one-hour window, the spotlighted Pokemon will appear more frequently in the wild. Using resources like Lure Module and Incense to boost the spawn rate is rewarding as you can collect Wooper, Quagsire, Wooper Candy, and Stardust. These resources aid a trainer in evolving a Wooper into a Quagsire.

The season's first week, Niantic started with a 5-star Raid Battle featuring Kartana, Celesteela, and the Charmander Community Day Classic. This week, the Spotlight Hour will feature Wooper on September 5, 2023, from 6 pm to 7 pm local time. Focusing on this week, this article details the best movesets for a competitive Wooper and Quagsire build in Pokemon GO.

The Pokemon GO September Spotlight Hour event will allow you to encounter Wooper in the wild. Although you can also find it in 1-star raids, you would need the best counters to influence the exploited weakness in raids.

On the contrary, attaching a Lure Module to a Pokestop and using Incenses in the exact same location helps you catch Wooper and collect Candy simultaneously and rather quickly. Finding the area favorable to Wooper's weather effect can further boost the spawn rate of this Pokemon.

The more Pokemon Candy you gather, the more perfect IVs Wooper you can get to level up and evolve. Using the lure strategy, you can easily collect 50 Candies and evolve Wooper into Quagisre.

If you get lucky, you may even encounter a Shiny Wooper by participating in the Spotlight Hour as soon as it starts. Being double lucky means you can even evolve Shiny Wooper into Shiny Quagsire on the same day.
