Get ready for an exciting Pokémon Go Community Day featuring Karrablast and Shelmet on Sunday, February 9th, from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm local time. During this event, you'll have a higher chance of encountering these Pokémon in the wild, and if luck is on your side, you might even spot their Shiny forms. As with every Community Day, expect a range of bonuses and engaging research tasks to enhance your experience.
By catching enough Karrablast and Shelmet during the event, you'll have the opportunity 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, with a consistent 90 power across all battles.
For $2 or its local equivalent, you can purchase a Community Day Special Research ticket. 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. It provides another chance to encounter the featured Pokémon and increases your odds of finding their Shiny versions. Additionally, you can use *Pokémon Go codes* to claim some free rewards and enhance your gameplay.
Throughout the three-hour event window, you'll benefit from several bonuses: triple XP and double Candy for catching Pokémon, with an elevated chance for Trainers level 31 and above to receive Candy XL. Lure Modules and Incense will last for three hours, and trading will be more advantageous with one additional Special Trade and a 50% reduction in Stardust costs.
Engage with Community Day-themed Field Research for rewards like Stardust, Great Balls, and more encounters with Karrablast and Shelmet. Keep an eye out for PokéStop Showcases, which offer another fun way to participate in the event.
To prepare for the event, consider purchasing one of the two Community Day bundles available in the in-game shop, or grab the Ultra Community Day Box from the Pokémon Go Web Store, available starting February 3rd.
