Pokémon Go's February Community Day: Karrablast, Shelmet, and Exciting Bonuses!
Get ready for a double feature Community Day in Pokémon Go! The event, running from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. local time on February 9th, 2025, features Karrablast and Shelmet. These Pokémon will have increased spawn rates in the wild, offering increased chances of encountering their Shiny forms.
Evolving for Powerful Moves:
The real excitement lies in evolution. Evolving Karrablast during the event (or until 10:00 p.m. local time on February 16th) yields an Escavalier knowing the Charged Attack Razor Shell (35 power in Trainer Battles, 55 power in Gyms and Raids). Similarly, evolving Shelmet within the same timeframe grants an Accelgor with the Charged Attack Energy Ball (90 power in all battle types).
Special and Timed Research:
Participate in the Special Research for encounters with Karrablast and Shelmet featuring Dual Destiny-themed backgrounds, a Premium Battle Pass, and a Rare Candy XL. A Timed Research event follows, lasting a week after the main event. Logging in during Community Day unlocks tasks providing further encounters with these special Pokémon.
Community Day Bonuses:
Enjoy boosted rewards throughout the event:
- 3x Catch XP
- 2x Candy
- 2x Candy XL chance for Trainers level 31 and above
Lure Modules and Incense (excluding Daily Adventure Incense) will last three hours. Plus, a photographic surprise awaits those who snap some in-game pictures! Download Pokémon GO from the Google Play Store and join the fun!
