Trivia

• This event was canceled on February 25^th, 2020.
• Pokémon Spotlight Hours on March 3^rd, 10^th and 17^th, 2020 were canceled in Japan, South Korea and Italy due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
• Since April 2020, Pokémon Spotlight Hour is combined with Mystery Bonus Hour, featuring both a Pokémon and a special bonus.
• This event was canceled on June 2^nd, 2020. It was likely because of the global downtime on June 1^st, from around 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. PDT.
• Since June 7^th, 2022, the bonuses of Pokémon Spotlight Hour are included in Today View.
• Zorua was originally planned to disguise as the player's Buddy Pokémon at the first and last five minutes of the hour on October 25^th, 2022, but was later cancelled in all time zones after GMT+13 due to a bug. The special event was hinted by "Bring your Buddy Pokémon to witness something special at the beginning and end of this Spotlight Hour!" from the official October 2022 infographic.
• The Hoothoot Spotlight Hour on November 29^th, 2022 had Teddiursa appearing instead in the earliest timezone. The event was extended by 30 minutes for affected regions.
• The Togedemaru Spotlight Hour on July 30^th, 2024 had triple Catch Stardust from Ultra Unlock: Strength of Steel to override the originally planned double Catch Stardust bonus.
