Get ready for an exciting Pokémon Go Community Day featuring Karrablast and Shelmet on February 9th! From 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm local time, these Pokémon will be appearing more frequently in the wild, giving you a fantastic opportunity to catch them. Keep your eyes peeled for their rare Shiny forms, which might just make an appearance if luck is on your side. As usual, the event will come packed with the standard bonuses and engaging research tasks that enhance your gameplay.
During the event, catching enough Karrablast and Shelmet will allow you to evolve them into Escavalier and Accelgor, respectively. These evolutions will come with exclusive charged attacks: Escavalier will learn Razor Shell, boasting 35 power in Trainer Battles and 55 in gyms and raids, while Accelgor will gain Energy Ball, with a powerful 90 across all battles.
Enhance your experience by purchasing the Community Day Special Research ticket for $2 or its equivalent in your region. This ticket not only offers encounters with Karrablast and Shelmet against a special Dual Destiny-themed background but also includes additional encounters, a Premium Battle Pass, and the coveted Rare Candy XL.
Don't miss out on the free Timed Research quest available to those who log in during the event. It offers another chance to encounter these themed Pokémon and increases your odds of finding their Shiny versions. Additionally, you can redeem Pokémon Go codes for some extra freebies to make your event even more rewarding!
Throughout the three-hour event window, you'll benefit from triple XP and double Candy for catching Pokémon. Trainers level 31 and above will enjoy an increased chance of receiving Candy XL. Lure Modules and Incense will last for three hours, enhancing your Pokémon encounters. Trading will also be more advantageous, with one additional Special Trade and a 50% reduction in Stardust costs.
Engage in Community Day-themed Field Research for rewards like Stardust, Great Balls, and more encounters with Karrablast and Shelmet. Keep an eye out for PokéStop Showcases, offering yet another exciting way to participate in the event.
Stock up on supplies with the two Community Day bundles available in the in-game shop. Additionally, the Ultra Community Day Box will be available on the Pokémon Go Web Store starting February 3rd, ensuring you have everything you need to make the most of this special day.
