As we approach the Spring season, Pokémon Go players are in for a frosty surprise with the upcoming Community Day event. Scheduled for April 27th from 2:00 to 5:00 pm local time, this event will feature the Fresh Snow Pokémon, Vanillite, appearing more frequently in the wild. Keep your eyes peeled, as you might even encounter its Shiny variant during this chilly celebration.
The fun doesn't end with catching Vanillite. Evolving it into Vanilluxe during the event or up to May 4th will grant it the special Charged Attack, Avalanche. This powerful move boasts 90 power in Trainer Battles and 85 power in Gyms and Raids, making Vanilluxe a formidable addition to your battle team.
For those looking to dive deeper into the event, a Community Day Special Research ticket is available for just $2. Completing these tasks will reward you with encounters with Vanillite featuring a Might and Mastery-themed special background, additional Vanillite encounters, a Premium Battle Pass, Rare Candy XL, and more.
Don't miss out on the Timed Research opportunity, which extends through the following week, offering another chance to catch Vanillite with the exclusive backdrop. Additionally, event-themed Field Research tasks will provide opportunities to earn Stardust, Great Balls, and more encounters with Vanillite, some of which may feature a special event background.
Throughout the event, several bonuses will be active to enhance your experience. You'll earn triple XP for catches, double Candy for each Pokémon caught, and Trainers level 31 and above will have double the odds of receiving Candy XL. Lure Modules and Incense will last for three hours, and there will be discounts on trading, making this Community Day a perfect time to boost your Pokémon Go progress.
