On August 13, the Community Day with Froxy will take place in Pokémon GO. We at MeinMMO will show you what content you can expect, if it’s worth it, and how you can make the most of the event with the little Blubbfrosch Pokémon.
What event is it about? Every month, Pokémon GO hosts a so-called Community Day, where a previously selected monster is highlighted and spawns at seemingly every corner in the game for a few hours. There is also an increased shiny rate and some helpful bonuses.
In the August Community Day, you can look forward to encounters with Froxy. We have summarized what else to expect on this day and how to best utilize the event below.

Bubble Bubbles
around the C-Day with Froxy for about 1.00 Euro - Event stickers with Froxy

Special Level 4 Raids: As you know from other Community Days, there will also be special Level 4 Raids after the C-Day with Froxy until 10:00 PM. In these, you can only battle Amphizel on-site and secure additional Froxy spawns for 30 minutes after a victory.
Who Should Participate in the Community Day with Froxy?
Can you catch Shiny Froxy? Yes, Froxy will be available for the first time in its shiny form in the game. During the Community Day, the shiny rate will also be increased, so your chances of encountering one or another specimen are really good. You can recognize it by its light blue body.
How strong is Froxy? Froxy is not particularly strong. And its evolution Amphizel does not impress in the GO Battle League and in Raids. However, with the exclusive charged move Water Gun
, things will look different for Quajutsu after the Community Day. This will allow it to shine particularly in Raids and secure a spot among the best attackers in Pokémon GO.
Who should make use of the C-Day? The Community Day with Froxy is especially interesting for all trainers who want to secure the new shiny. Your chances are really good on this day.
And also trainers who are still looking for a strong Water Pokémon for their Raid team, which can be leveled up quickly and easily, are perfectly right at this event. But don’t forget to evolve it in time so you can secure the strong charged move without needing a top charged TM.
Moreover, you should take advantage of the stardust bonus that will be available for the event. You’ll earn 3 times the stardust for every caught Pokémon. Combined with star pieces and incense as well as lures, this can really pay off.

How to Best Utilize the Community Day with Froxy
Make Space: If you want to catch a lot of Froxy, you need to have enough space. So, clear out your Pokémon bag in advance. This can be done easily with the tag and filter functions in the game. You can quickly sort all monsters with a rating of 2 stars or worse by entering 0*,1*,2*
.
Which items are important? Of course, various items will be needed for this event. Here are the ones you should have ready:
- Balls: If you want to play all day, you should have at least 200 balls on hand to avoid needing to find new ones right away. Hyper balls are particularly suitable for rebellious specimens. How to get balls in Pokémon GO, we show here.
- Sananaberries: If you want to evolve or level up your Froxy, you’ll need a lot of candies. You can feed Sananaberries when catching to get double the amount.
- Star Pieces: To optimally utilize the stardust bonus, activating star pieces is advisable. These last for 30 minutes each and give you 50% more stardust. Combine this with redeeming corresponding research tasks.
- Incense & Lures: To get even more Froxy, you can use incense or set lures. Both last 3 hours and thus cover the entire event period.
Which Mega Pokémon are worth it? To collect even more candies, activating a mega evolution is also advisable. Make sure that it has the same type as Froxy, which is Water. By catching the little frog, you can then collect more candies. Here are the evolutions you can use:
- Mega Gyarados (Water & Dark type)
- Mega Blastoise (Water type)
- Mega Lanturn (Water & Psychic type)
- Mega Swampert (Water & Ground type)
