All info about the Community Day in November – Start times
When: On Saturday, November 16, from 11:00 AM to 14:00 PM German time
Pokémon of the day: Panflam
Exclusive move: Not yet known
Bonus: Incubators require only a quarter to hatch
Bonus: During Community Day, Panflam will hatch from 2 km eggs and appear in raids
Bonus: 3-hour Lure Modules
Additional bonus: You can evolve Panferno until 16:00 to learn the exclusive move
This is important regarding the times: Worldwide, the Community Day takes place at 11:00 AM local time. So it doesn’t matter where you are in the world, you will have the bonuses starting at 11:00 AM.
How to get the most out of the event
This is important for the bonus: This Community Day focuses on hatching eggs. You should have enough incubators with you to fully utilize the bonus.
Lay the eggs so that they all hatch at the same time. If you also activate a Star Piece, you can collect a lot of dust.
You can also score here: During the Community Day, spawns are also increased. So you will catch more Pokémon on average than on regular days.
It’s especially worthwhile if you activate a Star Piece. This way you can collect a lot of dust that you can invest in the best attackers.
This is important at the game location: Small villages are not suitable for making the most of Community Day. So find a place in advance where you can catch many Pokémon and have various stops to spin.
Shiny Panflam, Panpyro, and Panferno
Will there be Shiny Panflam? For Community Day, there will also be the chance for Shiny Panflam for the first time. This is one of the highlights of the event.
What are the odds? You have a good chance of getting Shiny Panflam, as the rate will be increased during the event. Typically it is 1 in 25 during Community Days. Normally it is 1 in 450 for wild Pokémon.
Panferno with Flame Charge – How strong will it be?
What is known about the move: Panferno will learn the move Flame Charge. This attack has previously been able to be learned by every Fire starter on its Community Day.
How strong will Panferno be? With Flame Charge, it will be significantly stronger. Other Fire attackers might still be better, but it is about on the level of Charizard with Flame Charge. You can find a detailed analysis of the move here:

How can it learn the move? The exclusive move can only be learned through evolution. For this, you must evolve Panpyro into Panferno on the event day between 11:00 AM and 4:00 PM. TMs cannot teach this move.
These items you should use
- Egg Incubators – 9 or more
- To take full advantage of the Community Day bonus, you should have 9 or more incubators with you. This way you can hatch at least 3 batches of eggs and hope for Shinies in the eggs.
- Star Pieces – 6 or more
- Ideally, you should always have Star Pieces running. These last half an hour, which is why you need 6. This way you will always receive 1.5 times as much dust as usual.
- Lure Modules – 3 or more
- The Lure Modules last for 3 hours during the Community Day. So activate some in well-placed locations to catch more Pokémon.
- Balls – 200 or more
- Without balls, you can’t catch any Pokémon. Therefore, gather a supply of at least 200 balls so that you won’t have any issues on the event day.
In November, numerous other events are waiting for you:
