Costumed Charmander is displayed in Pokémon GO’s Events tab under the Spotlight Hour section, pointing to the Pokémon as the featured encounter for the currently unnamed hour. The costume is tied to the Pokémon Horizons event, giving Trainers a likely answer to the mystery before the hour arrives.

The next scheduled Spotlight Hour will still feature Houndour and Houndoom on September 13. The Mega Squads schedule places that pair in the upcoming rotation, so the Charmander listing points to a separate mystery-hour feature rather than a replacement for Houndour.
Does the chance to find a costumed Charmander make this mystery Spotlight Hour worth prioritizing? Share your thoughts in the comments, and follow us on X, Bluesky, YouTube, Instagram, Steam, and Telegram.
