In Pokémon GO announced a new event for January 2022 with the Community Day Classic. Long-term trainers may find this familiar.
What kind of event is this? The Community Day Classic is somewhat of a time travel: Pokémon GO is relaunching the Community Day with Bulbasaur from 2018 in January 2022.
When does the event take place? The Community Day Classic featuring Bulbasaur takes place on Saturday, January 22, 2022, from 14:00 to 17:00.
So it is an additional Community Day in January. After all, on January 16, the regular C-Day with Seemops also takes place.
Extra Community Day brings Bulbasaur and several bonuses
What bonuses are there? The Community Day Classic brings you, as usual, plenty of spawns of the event monster. However, it is oriented towards the “old” times and only lasts 3 hours instead of the now usual 6 hours.
But that is still plenty of time to catch Bulbasaur and enough candies for the evolutions Ivysaur and Venusaur. Furthermore, the Shiny version will also still be available.
It is to be expected that the Shiny rate is increased as usual for C-Days – this is not officially announced, however.
Following bonuses are included:
- The special charged attack “Flower Statue” for Venusaur if you evolve it from Ivysaur during the event or up to two hours afterward.
- Triple catch XP
- Incense lasts three hours
- Module also lasts three hours
- There will be snapshot surprises
- Moreover, there will be a special research for one Euro in the shop, focusing on Bulbasaur.
- In the shop, you will find the familiar free box with 30 Ultra Balls
- Additionally, there is a Community Day box in the shop for 1280 coins, containing 50 Ultra Balls, 5 Lucky Eggs, 5 Star Pieces, and a Premium Raid Pass.
What does the community say about the event: In the Pokémon GO subreddit “The Silph Road”, the announcement of the Classic event is well received.
- “As someone who missed the original Bulbasaur CD, even though I have been playing on and off for almost 6 years, this is a fantastic idea,” says user “NitronicFury” (via reddit).
- “THIS is how to do repeat Community Days. Not like Charmander, but in the same month as another Community Day. I don’t know how much I’ll play, but it’s a great idea for new players or those who missed the first CD,” says “krispyboiz” (via reddit).
- “I really like the idea of repeating Community Days. Hopefully, these days will continue even after the season of origin,” says user overchargext (via reddit).
In fact, there has been a case before where a Pokémon was again the focus of a Community Day – namely in the case of Charmander, which then appeared with an alternative attack. Above all, it is now praised that a repetition of old content is not done instead of new C-Days, but as an extra event.
