Karrablast, Shelmet Star in Pokémon Go's February 2025 Community Day

Get ready for an exciting February Pokémon Go Community Day on Sunday, February 9th, from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm local time. Karrablast and Shelmet will be the stars of the show, appearing more frequently in the wild. Keep an eye out for their elusive Shiny forms, which you might just encounter if luck is on your side. As with every Community Day, you'll have access to a range of bonuses and additional research tasks.

Catch as many Karrablast and Shelmet as you can during the event to evolve them into Escavalier and Accelgor, respectively. These evolutions will come with exclusive charged attacks: Escavalier will learn Razor Shell, boasting 35 power in Trainer Battles and 55 in gyms and raids, while Accelgor will gain Energy Ball, delivering 90 power across all battles.

Enhance your experience by purchasing the Community Day Special Research ticket for $2 or your local equivalent. This ticket not only offers encounters with Karrablast and Shelmet against a unique Dual Destiny-themed Special Background but also includes additional encounters, a Premium Battle Pass, and Rare Candy XL.

Don't miss out on the free Timed Research quest available to those who log in during the event. This quest provides another opportunity to catch the themed Pokémon and increases your chances of encountering their Shiny versions. And don't forget to redeem *Pokémon Go codes* for additional freebies!

During the three-hour event window, enjoy a variety of bonuses including triple XP and double Candy for catching Pokémon. Trainers level 31 and up will have an increased chance of receiving Candy XL. Lure Modules and Incense will last for three hours, and trading will be enhanced with one additional Special Trade and a 50% reduction in Stardust costs.

Engage in Community Day-themed Field Research for rewards like Stardust, Great Balls, and more encounters with Karrablast and Shelmet. You might also participate in PokéStop Showcases, adding another layer of fun to the event.

Lastly, stock up on supplies with two Community Day bundles available in the in-game shop, and don't miss the Ultra Community Day Box on the Pokémon Go Web Store, available starting February 3rd.
