Pokemon GO Morelull Spotlight Hour will take place on Tuesday, June 25, 2024, from 6 pm to 7 pm local time. It is the final event of its kind in June 2024 and comes after Makuhita on June 4, Wingull on June 11, and Reggenrola on June 18. Compared to the previous features of this month, Morelull is special for a particular reason.

Morelull, the Illuminating Pokemon, is one of the few rare Pocket Monsters in Niantic's mobile game that grant extra Stardust when captured. Add to that the bonus of this week's Pokemon GO Morelull Spotlight Hour, and you have a great chance to farm this precious resource.

This article elaborates on why you should not miss out on the June 25, 2024, Pokemon GO Morelull Spotlight Hour.

When you capture Morelull in Pokemon GO, you get 500 Stardust without Weather Boost. When the weather is Sunny/Clear or Cloudy (thanks to Morelull's Grass and Fairy-type), you get 625 Stardust. Upon activating a Star Piece these numbers increase to 750 and 938, respectively.

The Pokemon GO Morelull Spotlight Hour on June 24 features a 2x Catch Stardust event bonus. Therefore, if you activate a Star Piece and are lucky enough to have sunny/clear or cloudy weather, you can receive 1876 Stardust for every Morelull you capture. Note that you can utilize Dialga's Roar of Time Adventure Effect to extend the longevity of your Star Piece.

This is quite a large amount of Stardust to receive from a base form Pocket Monster, as the regular base amount is 100. In fact, it is five times more than the amount of Stardust you receive usually.

Those who enjoy grinding in Pokemon GO know the importance of Stardust. It is one of the main components you need to power up your Pocket Monsters. While it is freely available via capturing Pocket Monsters and playing GO Battle League, opportunities to get large chunks of it at one go come rarely.

Therefore, make the most out of the Pokemon GO Morelull Spotlight Hour to collect as much Stardust as possible.

Additionally, since Shiny Morelull is available during this event, you might also encounter one of those precious versions while hunting for Stardust.
