December marks the end of the calendar year and the end of the content year for most game developers, meaning Pokémon Go fans have a lot to look forward to as Niantic wraps up the year with its special Community Day double feature.
Just like in previous years, December’s Community Day will last two days instead of the usual one. This is because it will feature Pokémon featured in Community Day events across both 2021 and 2022 spawning together in different ways over both days.
For this event, players will see those specific Pokémon spawning in the wild, hatching from Eggs, and appearing in raids from 2pm to 5pm local time on both Dec. 17 and 18—with those spawns changing for each day. Day one will feature Pokémon from the 2021 Community Day events while day two will focus on the 2022 lineup.
A handful of event bonuses will be live for much longer than the Community Day spawns, running from 9am to 9pm local time on each day. Here is a full list of all December 2022 Community Day spawns, bonuses, and more.
