Pokemon Go trainers will have the chance to encounter all previously featured Community Day species from 2021 and 2022 during an all-out 2-day December event.

Pokemon Go players who missed out on Community Day events this year are going to have another chance to find a featured species during the December 2022 Community Day event. Pokemon will spawn for three hours on each of the two event days, offering bonuses and increased chances of finding a Shiny.

While the event doesn’t feature any new Community Day Pokemon, the opportunity to both catch previous features and evolve for specific move sets can be a big asset to players. Especially for those who may not have evolutions like Ursaluna.

Below is everything Pokemon Go players need to know to make the most of the December 2022 Community Day, and what they can look forward to while participating.
