The first Community Day of 2024 is here, with Rowlet headlining the event and appearing as a Shiny for the first time in Pokémon Go. This also means there is plenty of Special Research to complete if you want some extra goodies to pair with your new Decidueye.
Running from Jan. 6 to 2 to 5pm local time, players will have increased odds of encountering Shiny Rowlet as the Grass Quill Pokémon appears more frequently in the wild. If you evolve a Dartrix into a Decidueye during the event, it will know the Charged Attack Frenzy Plant.
Other event bonuses include double Candy and triple Stardust for catching Pokémon, trades costing 50 percent less Stardust, and three-hour durations for Incense and Lure Modules. And, from 5 to 10pm local time after the main event ends, you can also find special four-star raids featuring Dartrix that, once completed, will cause Rowlet to spawn more frequently for 30 minutes around that Gym. Those Rowlets will have the same boosted Shiny odds as regular Community Day encounters.
If you are interested in getting some bonus items and more encounters with Rowlet, you can also purchase the returning $1 Community Day Special Research ticket that will grant you access to the “Of A Feather” event-exclusive research.
