Pokémon Go's February Community Day: Karrablast and Shelmet Take Center Stage!
Get ready, Pokémon Go trainers! The February Community Day event details are here, featuring Karrablast and Shelmet. Mark your calendars for February 9th, 2025, from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. local time.
Featured Pokémon:
Karrablast and Shelmet will be significantly more common in the wild, increasing your chances of catching these Pokémon, including their Shiny variants. The real excitement lies in their evolutions.
Evolving Karrablast during the event (or until February 16th at 10:00 p.m. local time) yields an Escavalier knowing the powerful Charged Attack, Razor Shell (35 power in Trainer Battles, 55 power in Gyms and Raids). Similarly, evolving Shelmet within the same timeframe grants you an Accelgor with the Charged Attack, Energy Ball (a robust 90 power in all battle types).
Event Bonuses and Research:
This Community Day is packed with enticing bonuses:
- 3x Catch XP
- 2x Candy
- 2x Candy XL chance for Trainers level 31 and above
- 3-hour duration for Lure Modules and Incense (excluding Daily Adventure Incense)
- A photo-based surprise!
A Special Research taskline will reward encounters with Karrablast and Shelmet featuring special Dual Destiny-themed backgrounds, a Premium Battle Pass, and a Rare Candy XL. A Timed Research event, running for a week after the main event, unlocks further encounters with these Pokémon and their special backgrounds upon logging in during Community Day.
