Pokémon GO December Community Day: Everything You Need to Know

December's Community Day will take place over two days from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. according to the players timezone. During this time, players will be able to encounter certain Pokémon more frequently in the wild.

The featured Pokémon for December's Community Day will be... all of them. Niantic has decided to bring back all the Pokémon featured in previous Community Days in 2019. This includes:

Totodile
Swinub
Treecko
Torchic
Mudkip
Ralts
Slakoth
Trapinch
Bagon
Turtwig
Chimchar

Pokémon caught during the event can learn their special moves that were exclusive to their Community Day if they evolve the Pokémon to their final form before the end of the event. This gives players another chance to acquire Pokémon with these moves if they missed out on them in events earlier in the year.

Pokémon from 2018 Community Days will also be featured in raids while the event is active. This list includes:

Bulbasaur
Charmander
Squirtle
Pikachu
Eevee
Dratini
Chikorita
Cyndaquil
Mareep
Larvitar
Beldum

A bonus period will also be available during the two days of the event, between 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. During this period, players will receive 2x Catch Stardust, 2x Catch XP, and egg hatch distance is halved.

If players can't wait for December's Community Day to get into the action, there are still plenty of events lined up for the end of November. Supereffective Week is active until Nov. 26, where Pokémon supereffective against Team Rocket have increased encounter rates and will be featured in raids. The Legendary Rock/Fighting duo-type Terrakion will also make its Pokémon GO debut on Nov. 26.
