During the Abra Spotlight Hour, there will be more wild Abra popping up on your map as you walk around, and if you participate in the event, you’ll get an extra perk!)
Abra is a Psychic-themed Pokemon in the Pokemon GO game, with a maximum battle power of 1517 CP. During its evolution process, it transforms into Kadabra and eventually Alakazam, both being pure Psychic-type creatures. The Abra Spotlight Hour event allows players to collect candies needed for evolving the Pokemon. Additionally, there’s a chance you might find a rare Shiny Abra during this time. This guide explains the timing of the Abra Spotlight Hour, bonuses, and strategies for getting a Shiny Abra.
Pokemon GO: Abra Spotlight Hour Time & Bonuses
Join the special Abra Spotlight Hour in Pokemon GO on Tuesday, April 29, 2025, starting at 6 PM local time and lasting until 7 PM.

Plus, catching Pokemon during this hour will grant you a 2x Catch XP bonus, meaning twice the in-game experience points for each catch.
Pokemon GO: How To Get Shiny Abra

During Spotlight Hours in Pokemon GO, when Abra is the focus, it increases its natural spawn rate. Lucky players might even encounter a Shiny Abra. To maximize your chances of finding a Shiny Abra, you should seize the opportunity provided by the boosted wild spawn rate. Additionally, there are various in-game items that can enhance the spawn rate of wild Pokemon.
- Abra’s Weather Boosts activates and increases its wild spawn rate in windy areas.
- You must look for a PokeStop in windy weather.
- Attach a Lure Module to that specific PokeStop.
- Activate an Incense and walk around the Lure Module’s area of effect.
In Pokemon GO, this tactic may boost the appearance of wild Pokemon, but it won’t ensure a Shiny encounter. Many players may come across multiple Abra, yet it’s only the fortunate ones who might stumble upon a Shiny Abra.
After you’ve captured a Shimmering Abra, give it 25 Abra Treats to transform this creature into a Radiant Kadabra. Later on, you can transform the Luminous Kadabra into a Radiant Alakazam by providing it with 100 Abra Treats.
