Niantic has a couple of huge activities covered up for Pokemon Go following week, from a unique Latios Raid to the return of the annual Eggstravaganza. Before that, however, the developer is conserving April’s Community Day. The month-to-month occasion returns this Saturday, April 13, giving gamers around the world another threat to earn bonuses and capture a few rare Pokemon–along with a new Shiny.
Just like previous months, April’s Community Day will best run for 3 hours, throughout which you’ll be capable of find improved spawns of this month’s featured Pokemon. While the most extended duration is always the equal, the particulars of every Community Day–inclusive of what time it begins and what other bonuses you may be able to earn–usually vary month through the month, so we’ve rounded up all of the essential info you need to realize approximately this month’s occasion below.
What Is The Featured Pokemon?
Each Community Day, Niantic designates one “featured” Pokemon that’ll serve as the celebrity of the event. Throughout the Community Day, the featured Pokemon will spawn greater often within the wild than it generally does, making it an excellent possibility to inventory upon them. On the pinnacle of that, Community Days provide typically players their first possibility to catch the Shiny model of that month’s featured Pokemon, and the monster can research a unique flow if it absolutely evolves by using the quiet of the event.
The featured Pokemon for April’s Community Day is Bagon, the first form of the fan-favorite Dragon Pokemon Salamence. Throughout the event, Bagon will be much new common than it commonly is, and you may have your primary hazard to capture a Shiny Bagon. Moreover, in case you manage to evolve Bagon all of the manners into Salamence as much as an hour after the occasion ends, it’s going to routinely know the powerful Dragon-type attack Outrage.
What Time Does It Start?
Up till last month, Niantic traditionally held every Community Day all through a particular window of time, which varies depending upon your location; in North America, as an instance, the event could always run from eleven AM – 2 PM PT, at the same time as Europe’s Community Day would take place from 10 AM – 1 PM UTC.
Beginning in March, but, Niantic modified the schedule for Community Days. Rather than maintaining the event for the duration of particular instances in each area, it will now take region anywhere from 3-6 PM local time. This must make it an awful lot less complicated to bear in mind while the Community Day is happening, as you not need to convert the event hours in your time zone.
What Other Bonuses Are There?
Along with increased Pokemon spawns, Niantic gives a few different bonuses at some stage in every month’s Community Day as a further incentive to exit and participate in the event. This month, you may earn triple the same old quantity of XP for shooting Pokemon in the course of the Community Day. Additionally, Lure Modules–which generally only last 30 minutes–will remain active for three hours when used at some stage in the event.
