Fennekin Community Day

May 23, 2023May 21, 2023 Medic 0 Comments community day, delphox, fennekin, fire, pokemon, pokemon go

It’s that time of year where we get another starter Pokemon for a Community Day. Fennekin is a cute little fiery starter, and the 21st was a chance to catch a huge number of them. However, we’ve had a lot of fire starter community days, so does Fennekin’s community day stand out? Was it any good? It’s alright. The community day had some nice features. Double candy and double stardust were nice bonuses, but for us, the weather wasn’t amazing. We had a few scattered showers, and the clouds were threatening to rain on us. We actually decided to walk… [Continue Reading]

Swinub Classic Community Day

April 30, 2023April 29, 2023 Medic 0 Comments community day, pokemon, pokemon go, swinub

Back in 2019, we had a Swinub Community Day. The event was great and we all managed to get a bunch of Mamoswines, ready for the next dragon boss to come by. Most people didn’t care much for the special move, but we were all glad to finally have one of the best ice types in the game for a while. Since then, we’ve had a few better ice types, but in the same way Machamp is still a great pick, so is Mamoswine. Not the best, but very reliable. 2019 though was a long time ago. We’ve had some… [Continue Reading]

Togetic Community Day

April 17, 2023April 16, 2023 Medic 0 Comments community day, pokemon go, shiny, togetic

On Saturday 15th, we had a rather odd community day. Rather than featuring a basic Pokemon, we got a first evolution. Togetic is an unusual Pokemon that has a baby form, Togepi. It then evolves into the Pokemon equivalent of a stealth jet. But was the community day any good? Well, it’s a yes and a no. When it comes to shinies, it’s a bit of a mess. Togetic’s shiny is actually very easy to miss. Several times I clicked on a shiny and nearly backed out because it didn’t look shiny at first glance. If it wasn’t for the… [Continue Reading]

Slowpoke Community Day

March 20, 2023March 18, 2023 Medic 0 Comments community day, pokemon go, slowpoke

Community days are always fun, and this is no real exception. Slowpoke is a pretty cute Pokemon (and one of my brother’s favourites) so it’s nice to get something a bit different. Cute little things Both forms of Slowpoke are adorable and a bit useless. Their evolutions on the hand are a bit more interesting. Mainly because they’re being bitten by another Pokemon. It’s almost as parasitic as Paras and Parasect. Anyway there’s plenty of both. The Kanto Slowpoke’s shiny is rather faint, but the Galarian Slowpoke goes yellow all over. If you know me well enough, you can recall… [Continue Reading]

Noibat Community Day

February 6, 2023February 5, 2023 Medic 0 Comments community day, noibat, noivern, pokemon go

One of my favorite Pokemon is Noivern. So when I heard that we were getting a Noibat Community Day, I was very happy. This was a chance for me to get a hold of plenty of Noibats and hopefully be able to evolve a good Noivern. Things didn’t quite go as planned. The weather was quite threatening, and due to a mix-up I didn’t charge up my battery pack. So it was basically a race against the clock to see how many Noibats I could catch. What’s nice though was the triple stardust and double catch candy. Despite being a… [Continue Reading]

Larvitar Community Day Classic

January 22, 2023January 21, 2023 Medic 0 Comments community day, larvitar, pokemon go

The Larvitar family is a pretty interesting one. Alongside the Beldum family, these Pokemon are the only pseudo-Legendary Pokemon that aren’t dragon types for a change. They’re also definitely great Pokemon overall, and they have Mega Evolutions too. So it’s worth grabbing Larvitars whenever you can. Finally, a chance to get some Larvitar shinies For me, I’ve actually only managed to catch 3 shiny Larvitars in the past. Despite catching a LOT of Larvitars, the shinies not so much ellude me but beg to have a few more in my collection. This event allowed me to get a shiny Tyranitar… [Continue Reading]

Chespin Commuinity Day

January 13, 2023January 8, 2023 Medic 0 Comments community day, hoenn, kecleon, pokemon, pokemon go, shiny

The new year has been pretty good so far in Pokemon GO. We had a nice new year’s event, and, at the time of writing, an event with fairies and dragons coming up. We’re also starting the year with a more familiar face, a starter Pokemon. After a long delay, we seem to be back on course when it comes to Community Days. And January’s Community Day is for Chespin, the spiky nut Pokemon, and the grass starter for the Kalos region. It’s been a while since we last saw a community day starter, and Chespin is nice and refreshing.… [Continue Reading]

December Community Weekend was Nice

December 19, 2022December 18, 2022 Medic 0 Comments community day, event, pokemon go

…..On December 17th and 18th 2022, we had a final community day event in Pokemon GO. As is tradition, at the end of the year, all the Pokemon from this year’s community days all come back for one final hurrah, before going away again. This years community day Pokemon were a mixed bag, but the weekend made up for it. Well, day 2 did. Day 1 had all the Pokemon that no one really wanted. Teddiursa, Hopip, the two Sandshrews and Geodude. Day 2 had the likes of Litwick, Deino and Galarian Zigzagoon. On day 1, I only played a… [Continue Reading]

Litwick Community Day

October 17, 2022October 16, 2022 Medic 0 Comments community day, litwick, pokemon go

Saturday 15th was Litwick Community Day, with the cute little candle Pokemon. I have a feeling that Litwick is semi popular, and it’s definitely a favourite of my sister’s. While the event was nothing special, there’s still a few things that were a bit odd. Plenty of new shinies but some unusual choices in special moves. A nice day Personally, I had a really nice Community Day. Mostly by sheer coincidence, I actually ran into some of the other members of my Pokemon GO community. I met with three friends and long-term players, all of whom wanted some shinies and… [Continue Reading]

A Gigalithic Community Day

September 20, 2022September 18, 2022 Medic 0 Comments community day, gigalith, pokemon go, roggenrola, shiny

Another month, another community day. However this community day is a bit of a surprise, because no one really expected Roggenrola to be the chosen Pokemon. Especially in the middle of an event filled with Steel-type Pokemon. In this community day, it ran from 2pm until 5pm, allowing you to evolve a Boldore into a Gigalith to learn Meteor Beam. And, of course, it had a much higher chance of being a shiny. It’s an… unusual choice of Pokemon. Not the best but usable at least Sadly, even with Meteor Beam, Gigalith isn’t that amazing. Rhyperior, Rampardos and Terrakion are… [Continue Reading]
