Pokemon Go Pikipek Spotlight Hour: Shiny Pikipek Chances and Perfect IV Stats

Trainers can take advantage of Pikipek Spotlight Hour in Pokemon Go to try to capture a shiny Pikipek or find one with perfect IVs to add to their collection. Pikipek is a woodpecker Pokemon that is endemic to Alola. It debuted in Pokemon Go during the start of the Alola Season, which is about to come to a close after a multi-month run. Due to the fact that it is still a new addition to the game, many trainers are looking forward to its Spotlight Hour in order to stock up on Pikipek Candy and other goodies. It's only natural that Pikipek is the featured Pokemon this week, given this is the final Spotlight Hour of the Season of Alola.

This event can be used to complete any remaining chores for the Alola to Alola event and accompanying Collection Challenge, which needs you to acquire Trumbeak and Toucannon. Here's everything you need to know about Pokemon Go's Pikipek Spotlight Hour, including how to find a shiny Pikipek and what to look for if you want a Pikipek with ideal IV stats.

Pikipek Spotlight Hour Schedule

The Pikipek Spotlight Hour will be held on Tuesday, May 31 from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. in your time zone. Every Tuesday, Spotlight Hour events take occur at the same hour, with a different featured Pokemon and bonus. The bonus this week is double catch Stardust, which means you'll get twice as much Stardust for catching Pokemon throughout the event as usual.

Can Pikipek Be Shiny?

In Pokemon Go, Pikipek cannot be shiny. Trainers will have to wait until a later date to catch a shiny Pikipek, as Niantic has yet to introduce one to the game. Pikipek's evolutions, Toucannon and Trumbeak, can't be shiny either. The majority of Alolan Pokemon in Pokemon Go does not yet have shiny variants, since Niantic is holding their shining debuts for future events.

Perfect IV Stats for Pikipek in Pokemon GO

This Spotlight Hour is the optimum time to catch a Pikipek with excellent IVs if you're seeking one. A fully grown Toucannon with 100 percent ideal IV stats may be a terrific addition to any battling lineup, and locating the perfect Pikipek is the first step. The CP numbers for Pikipek that match perfect 15/15/15 IV values are as follows:

• Level 30 (wild CP max): 780 CP
• Level 35 (weather-boosted CP max): 845 CP

If you're below level 30, wild CP values grow with your trainer level, so these values only apply if you're above level 30 in Pokemon Go. The majority of folks looking for ideal IV Pokemon are already over level 30, so this shouldn't be a problem.
