As we transition into the Spring season, Pokémon Go is set to cool things down with a frosty twist during the upcoming Community Day event. Mark your calendars for April 27th, from 2:00 to 5:00 pm local time, when Vanillite, the Fresh Snow Pokémon, will take center stage. During this event, Vanillite will appear more frequently in the wild, giving you the perfect opportunity to catch this chilly Pokémon. Keep your eyes peeled, as you might even encounter its Shiny variant.
The fun doesn't end with just catching Vanillite. If you evolve it into Vanilluxe during the event or up to May 4th, it will learn the special Charged Attack, Avalanche. This powerful move delivers 90 power in Trainer Battles and 85 power in Gyms and Raids, making it an excellent addition to your battle lineup.
For those looking to dive deeper into the icy festivities, a Community Day Special Research ticket is available for just $2. By completing these tasks, you'll encounter Vanillite with a Might and Mastery-themed special background, plus you'll receive extra Vanillite encounters, a Premium Battle Pass, Rare Candy XL, and more.
Don't miss out on the Timed Research opportunity, which extends through the following week, offering another chance to catch Vanillite with the exclusive backdrop. Additionally, event-themed Field Research tasks will provide opportunities to earn Stardust, Great Balls, and more encounters with Vanillite. Some tasks may even lead to a Vanillite with a special event background.
Throughout the event, several bonuses will be active to enhance your gameplay experience. You'll earn triple XP for catches, double Candy for each Pokémon caught, and Trainers level 31 and above will have double the odds of receiving Candy XL. Lure Modules and Incense will last for three hours, and there will be discounts on trading, making it the perfect time to expand your Pokémon collection.
