Pokémon Go enthusiasts, get ready for an exciting February Community Day on February 9th, 2025, from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. local time. This event shines a spotlight on two fascinating Pokémon: Karrablast and Shelmet. These Pokémon will be appearing more frequently in the wild, giving you ample opportunities to catch them. Keep your eyes peeled for their Shiny versions as well, which are sure to be a rare find.
The highlight of the event is the evolution perks. Evolve Karrablast during the event or up until February 16th at 10:00 p.m. local time, and you'll receive an Escavalier with the powerful Charged Attack Razor Shell. This move delivers 35 power in Trainer Battles and a whopping 55 power in Gyms and Raids. Similarly, evolving Shelmet within the same timeframe will grant you an Accelgor equipped with the Charged Attack Energy Ball, boasting 90 power in both Trainer Battles and Gyms/Raids.
Participate in the Special Research to encounter Karrablast and Shelmet with unique Dual Destiny-themed backgrounds. You'll also receive a Premium Battle Pass and a Rare Candy XL. The event extends with a Timed Research that lasts a week after the Community Day. Log in during the event to unlock tasks that reward you with encounters of Karrablast and Shelmet featuring the special backgrounds.
Don't miss out on the fantastic bonuses during the February Community Day. You'll earn 3× XP for catching Pokémon, double Candy, and a 2× chance for Trainers level 31 and up to receive Candy XL from catches. Lure Modules and Incense (excluding Daily Adventure Incense) will last for three hours, and there's a delightful surprise in store if you take some photos during the event. Make sure to download Pokémon GO from the Google Play Store to join in on the fun.
