This week’s Featured Hour is all about two-handed Pokémon, which really narrows it down… We’re not going to count how many Pokémon have a total of two-handed, but we will tell you that this is a great opportunity. to search for a perfect Binacle and a shiny Binacle in Pokémon Go.
The obviously Barnacle Pokémon (FIFY, Pokémon Company) is a cool Pokémon to see in Spotlight Hour, as its use in left field in Ultra League is really interesting, unlike the Water/Rock type seen last week. It’s second only to Relicanth in its type pool, and Relicanth is still a Pokémon that many trainers miss, thanks to the way February’s Pokémon Go Hoenn Tour was designed.
Even if you’re not into PvP, you should try to catch as many Pokémon as you can during this week’s Spotlight Hour because of the double candy catch bonus offered alongside the event.

Binacle 100% Perfect IV Stats in Pokémon Go
This week’s Featured Hour is a great opportunity to catch a Binacle with perfect IV stats.
Binacle.
“Perfect” means two things in Pokémon Go, depending on how you plan to use a given Pokémon. First, there’s the max build, 100% IV, which is the 15/15/15 you’re looking for for your 4* Pokédex, Raids, and Master League. However, because of how CP is calculated using three stats, a perfect Pokémon IV is usually just the best version of itself in the Master League.
Of course, you can’t see a Pokémon’s IV without catching it first, but with a little research beforehand, you can quickly spot a perfect Binacle based on CP alone.
If you’re level 30 (or higher), you’ll ideally be looking for the following CPs for a perfect 15/15/15 Binacle:
The wild CP value aligns with your trainer level until you reach level 30, and since the majority of the player base is now above this level, we’ve kept these values for the sake of simplicity. However, these values will be different if you are currently below level 30.
Is Barbaracle good at PvP?
In reality, he is not bad in the lower leagues, although his double weakness against the grass can be a bit problematic. Where it will really shine will most likely be in a limited meta/special cup where Grass types are restricted. Beyond that, Fighting, Electric, and Ground weaknesses are the only thing really holding him back. That said, a few move updates wouldn’t hurt to make the five-handed Pokemon (no, it’s the collective Pokemon in some ways) a bit more meta relevant.
Barbaracle.
Barbaracle Fury Cutter (fast), Stone Edge (charged), and Cross Chop (charged). Stone Edge is its only STAB move, but Fury Cutter charges up quickly and Cross Chop is an excellent anti-Abomasnow tech. All told, this is an agile, spammable Pokémon that can apply decent shield pressure.
In Great League, this means easy wins against Alolan Ninetails, Trevenant, Sableye, Walrein, and Noctowl. Meanwhile, losses will come from the meta-relevant Galarian Stunfisk, Lanturn, Swampert, Medicham, and Altaria.
Ultra League offers equally reasonable wins and losses against a good portion of the meta. Talonflame, Charizard, and Pidgeot will drop like a ton of feathers (he weighs the same as a ton of bricks, after all), as will Alolan Muk and Umbreon. However, it’s not all advantages: Swampert, Giratina, Cresselia, Cobalion and Walrein will cause you pain.
The Master League is practically a no-go option for Barbaracle, thanks to his lack of volume in the big leagues. It will beat most Flying types, especially Legendaries, but not all. Dragonite and Gyarados are losses to consider, along with Metagross, Dialga, and Mewtwo.
The Season of Adventure Abundance is here! He has brought the Timed Investigation: Master Ball quest, which offers you the chance to win another Master Ball. There’s also a new season of Go Battle League to participate in. Be sure to compete in Shadow Raids, complete Routes, use Daily Adventure Incense for a chance to encounter Galarian Articuno, Galarian Zapdos, and Galarian Moltres. This incense can also give you encounters with other rare Pokémon in Pokémon Go.
Is there a shiny Binacle in Pokémon Go?
Yes, although it is a bit strange. Shiny Binacle was released during Water Festival 2022, making this their one year anniversary in the game and a great opportunity to go shiny hunting as a result!

What does the shiny Binacle look like?
As you can see below, the glossy Binacle is pretty simple, swapping the orange for pink, the brown for a greenish-brown, and the ivory for light green. It sure looks bright and attractive and looks a bit as if it has picked up some moss while staying on a rock side at low tide.
Shiny Barbaracle simply copies Binacle’s task, the same colors being swapped for slightly more pastel versions of the same colors. You can see a preview of both below.

Other tips for this hour of attention
Besides trying to catch a shiny Binacle in Pokémon Go, there are a couple more good reasons to participate in this week’s Spotlight:
- The best reason is of course the double candy catch bonus that runs throughout the hour. This gives you a chance to collect candy twice as fast as usual, and each Binacle caught will give up to 13 candy if you use a Pinap/Silver Berry with a Mega Evolved Pokemon of the same type, instead of the basic three.
- This bonus also extends to research rewards. Remember, you don’t need to catch these Pokémon when you complete the task; If you run away, you can “stack” up to 200 Pokémon for times like this, or when you want to max out a Star Piece or Lucky Egg bonus.
- If you’re a newcomer, this Featured Hour is the perfect time to collect enough Binacle Candy to fully evolve this Pokémon and add its evolution to your Pokédex.
- Thanks to Binacle being a Water/Rock type, capturing a bunch during this Featured Hour will add progress to your respective capture bonus medal.
Spotlight Hour events only last one hour: from 6 pm to 7 pm (local time). Next week’s featured hour features Sunkern and brings back the Candy double transfer bonus. Make sure you start tagging which Pokémon you want to transfer now!
Good luck finding a perfect Binacle!
