February 2025 Pokémon Go Community Day: Karrablast and Shelmet Featured

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 be the stars of the show. During this three-hour window, these Pokémon will appear more frequently in the wild, giving you a fantastic opportunity to encounter their Shiny forms if luck is on your side. Along with the increased spawn rates, you can look forward to the usual Community Day bonuses and engaging research tasks.

If you manage to catch enough of these Pokémon during the event, you'll have the chance to evolve Karrablast into Escavalier and Shelmet into Accelgor. These evolutions will come with exclusive charged attacks: Escavalier will learn Razor Shell, boasting 35 power in Trainer Battles and 55 power in gyms and raids, while Accelgor will gain Energy Ball with a solid 90 power across all battle types.

For those looking to enhance their experience, a Community Day Special Research ticket is available for $2 or its local equivalent. This ticket not only unlocks a Dual Destiny-themed Special Background featuring encounters with Karrablast and Shelmet but also provides additional encounters, a Premium Battle Pass, and Rare Candy XL.

Don't miss out on the free Timed Research quest available for those who log in during the event. This quest offers another chance to encounter Karrablast and Shelmet, with an increased chance of finding their Shiny versions. Additionally, you can take advantage of *Pokémon Go codes* to snag some extra rewards.

During the event, you'll benefit from a range 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 activated during the event will last for three hours, and you'll enjoy trading benefits, such as one additional Special Trade and a 50% reduction in Stardust costs.

Community Day-themed Field Research will offer rewards like Stardust, Great Balls, and additional encounters with Karrablast and Shelmet. Keep an eye out for PokéStop Showcases, which provide another way to participate and showcase your Pokémon.

To prepare for the event, take advantage of the two Community Day bundles available in the in-game shop, and don't forget the Ultra Community Day Box available on the Pokémon Go Web Store starting February 3rd. Get ready to immerse yourself in the world of Pokémon Go and make the most of this special Community Day!
