Classic Pokémon to Be Featured on January's Community Day

by Oliver Feb 13,2025

This January 25th, from 2 pm to 5 pm local time, Pokémon GO's Community Day Classic spotlights Ralts! Trainers can encounter Ralts in the wild, potentially finding a Shiny variant. Evolving Kirlia (Ralts' evolution) during the event, or within five hours afterward, yields a Gardevoir or Gallade knowing the powerful Charged Attack, Synchronoise (80 damage).

This Community Day Classic, a recurring event offering a second chance at past Community Day Pokémon, provides several bonuses: Lure Modules and Incense (excluding Daily Adventure Incense) last three hours, and egg hatching distance is reduced to 1/4.

Beyond increased Ralts spawns and the special move, the event includes:

  • Special Research ($2): Rewards include a Premium Battle Pass, a Rare Candy XL, and three Ralts encounters with seasonal backgrounds.
  • Timed Research: Rewards four Sinnoh Stones and a Ralts encounter.
  • Continued Timed Research: Offers additional Ralts encounters with special backgrounds.
  • Field Research: Provides Stardust and Great Balls.
  • New Showcases & Offers: Including a $4.99 Ultra Box (Pokémon GO Web Store) and two bundles (1350 and 480 PokéCoins).

Originally introduced in 2017 with the Hoenn region, Ralts previously featured in a Community Day in August 2019. This event joins other January activities, including Shadow Ho-Oh's return during Shadow Day and the anticipated Lunar New Year event.
