Got 15 shinies and unfortunatly no shiny background, gonna try and get one through trades, didn't go super hard started a bit late and didn't use my go++. I also noticed that i got alot more candy xl during de last cd so i quess mega4 does actually matter. :)
Crustle is switch/there to deal with fire-types and char can also so it sometimes :)
It was pretty hot like 36C when i played so i was sitting/standing in the shade most of the time, i also put on sunscreen and drank a bunch of water, i hope go fest isn't gonna be this hot. I played i think about 2 hours and used palkia alot, for some reason there were way less spawns than on swinub spotlight hour so it was probably worth it. I also activated the mega4 dragonite from go tour but i couln't tell u how much difference it made compared to a lvl3.
​
Do u think i should max the nundo :3 i didn't get a hundo so im just sitting on a bunch of candy xl now.
I didn't go to hard I started a bit late and did a shadow dialga raid(didn't get anything worthwhile), I used Spacial Rend for 30 minutes and a inscence, but there were so many spawns 4 me it was kind of unnecessary. I didn't really use my go++ and was just quickcatching with ultra balls, since swinubs aren't the easiest to catch. I didn't really need more Swinubs candy and already have enough shines of it, but it's the first Spotlight Hour after the drought so I played regardless. Although Swinubs is definitely a good one, since Shadow Manoswine is a great Ice and Ground Attacker.
I remember, I think it was the Winter of 2022-2023 and Swinub was spawning a lot, so I grinded out enough Candy to lvl40 a full raid team of Shadow Mamos and it greatly served me for a long Time. It's a great starting/just great overall Attacker if u can get the candy and even the normal version is good, although shadow Swinubs is currently in the grunt rotation.

I'm glad that Spotlight Hours are properly back now I played significantly less when they removed them, and it didn't help that the weekend events haven't been great lately just rehashes of old events or just nothing for the past few weeks XD.

I also got a new Phone, the Poco M8 and it's been pretty amazing, I first was concerned about performance, but it plays the game no problem, it even does the increased refresh-rate without issue, and damn is that smooth :), although the Gallery Editor isn't as great as on Samsung so I might transfer my screenshots to my old device to edit or something :3
