Ahead of the first spotlight hour of May 2023, you might be wanting to get ready for a hoard of little Fennecs surrounding you! As with all Pokemon GO players, we can’t help but ask if there will be a shiny Fennec amid the hoard of them.

It is vulnerable to Ground, Rock and Water moves. Fennekin’s strongest moveset is Ember & Flamethrower and it has a Max CP of 1,028. Fennekin evolves into Braixen.

However, it’s a good thing that the spotlight hour means you’ll be absolutely surrounded by them – and thus your chances of finding a shiny Fennec as significantly higher.

Final Words
Getting ready for a spotlight hour is just a matter of getting somewhere many Pokemon will spawn. Usually, you’ll find them out near Stops or gyms, but equally, you can use a lure to attract even more to your location.
As expected, the spotlight hour only lasts an hour, so be sure you catch as many as you can during that time! Once the hour’s up, you can then get to work on sorting out the best-rated Fennecs and get candies for the others, considering you’ll need quite a few before you can evolve one into a Delphox!
