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

Get ready for an exciting Pokémon Go Community Day on February 9th, from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm local time, where Karrablast and Shelmet will take center stage. During this three-hour event, these Pokémon will appear more frequently in the wild, offering you a higher chance to encounter their elusive Shiny forms. As part of the event, you can enjoy the usual Community Day bonuses, including additional research tasks that add to the excitement.

By catching enough Karrablast and Shelmet, you'll have the opportunity to evolve them into Escavalier and Accelgor, respectively. These evolutions 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 a potent 90 power across all battles.

Enhance your experience by purchasing a Community Day Special Research ticket for $2 or your local equivalent. This ticket unlocks a Dual Destiny-themed Special Background and offers encounters with Karrablast and Shelmet, along with 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. It provides another chance to encounter Karrablast and Shelmet, with an increased chance of finding their Shiny versions. Additionally, you can redeem *Pokémon Go codes* for some extra freebies to enhance your gameplay.

Throughout the event, take advantage of the active bonuses: earn triple XP and double Candy for catching Pokémon, with an elevated chance for Trainers level 31 and up to receive Candy XL. Lure Modules and Incense will last for three hours, and trading benefits will be enhanced, allowing one additional Special Trade and reducing Stardust costs by 50%.

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

To prepare, consider purchasing one of the two Community Day bundles available in the shop, or grab the Ultra Community Day Box from the Pokémon Go Web Store, available starting February 3rd.
