Pokemon GO Community Day August 2021’s Featured Pokemon Will Be Eevee

Niantic and The Pokemon Company have unveiled details for August 2021’s Pokemon GO Community Day.

The next Pokemon GO Community Day will run for two days on 14 August and 15 August (11am to 5pm, local time). This time, the featured Pokemon is Eevee, the Evolution Pokemon from the Kanto region. Additionally, if players evolve Eevee into one of its eight evolutions from August 13 to August 16, it will learn one of eight special moves specific to that evolution (see more info below).

Bonus buffs during the event will include 3-hour incense, 3-hour lure modules, and one-quarter egg hatch distance. Additionally, a Special Research story titled “What You Choose to Be” will also be available for $1 USD.
