Get ready for a double dose of Community Day fun in Pokémon GO! Karrablast and Shelmet will be the stars of the show on Sunday, February 9th, from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm local time. These Pokémon will appear much more frequently in the wild, giving you a fantastic opportunity to catch them—and maybe even their Shiny forms! Standard Community Day bonuses will also be in effect.
Catch enough Karrablast and Shelmet, and you'll be able to evolve them into Escavalier and Accelgor with powerful exclusive moves. Escavalier learns Razor Shell (35 power in Trainer Battles, 55 in Gyms and Raids), while Accelgor gets Energy Ball (90 power in all battle types).
For an even more rewarding experience, grab the Community Day Special Research ticket for $2 (or local equivalent). This ticket unlocks a Dual Destiny-themed Special Background, additional encounters with Karrablast and Shelmet, a Premium Battle Pass, and Rare Candy XL.
Don't forget! A free Timed Research quest will be available to all players who log in during the event, offering more chances to encounter Karrablast and Shelmet, along with boosted Shiny odds. You can also redeem Pokémon Go codes for extra goodies!
Throughout the three-hour event window, enjoy triple XP and double Candy for catching Pokémon. Trainers level 31 and above have an increased chance of receiving Candy XL. Lure Modules and Incense will last three hours, and trading will be boosted with one extra Special Trade and 50% reduced Stardust costs.
Community Day-themed Field Research tasks will reward you with Stardust, Great Balls, and more encounters. Keep an eye out for PokéStop Showcases for additional ways to participate.
Finally, stock up on items! Two Community Day bundles will be available in the in-game shop, alongside an Ultra Community Day Box on the Pokémon GO Web Store, starting February 3rd.
