There are rare occasions when Niantic decides to surprise us, but when that happens, they do it in style. One of those occasions involves a special in-game event called Community Day. The first-ever Community Day took place on January 20th, 2018, where players had the delight of catching the chosen Pokemon which was Pikachu. This event included Pikachu’s Shiny forms and the ability to learn Surf as a special move.
Community Day is happening once per month, where players have the chance to catch a Pokemon that is chosen by Niantic but only for a few hours. During those special hours, players can enjoy bonuses and make their Pokemon (the chosen one) learn a new move.
Ever since 2018 we have had many Community Day events, many Pokemon, and many bonuses. Some of them we can not remember, so for that matter, the team has decided to explore a little bit and make a list of every Community Day and every Community Day Pokemon from 2018 to 2022.
Niantic and Pokemon Go introduced a new type of Community Day called Community Day Classic. The first Community Day Classic event went live on January 22, 2022, featuring Bulbasaur.
