The "Pokemon Go" August Community Day event is nearing, which also means that trainers will have the chance to get their hands on the elusive pocket monster Ralts. On August 3, "Pokemon Go" players will be given three hours to capture as much Gen 3, Psychic or fairy type of pocket monsters and enlarge their collection with shinies, spawns, and evolutions and to avail of several other surprises. Here is a rundown of the tips and tricks on how you can enjoy the upcoming Community Day event.
The basic concept of the "Pokemon Go" Community Day is extremely simple. Players have to go out and collect numerous pokemon for three hours. However, this time, there are some changes. During the event, make sure to remember that the day is the best day to get the gold Psychic-type badge.
The "Pokemon Go" psychic-type badge is not really difficult to acquire, especially for players who have been playing the augmented reality game right from the start. But, this is the best chance for newer trainers to catch up.
Since February 2019, "Pokemon Go" Community Day events always happen on local time regardless of player's location. For the Ralts Community Day event, it is scheduled between 4 pm and 7 pm local time. The delay in terms of hours is intended to allow players to avoid the heat.
During Fall, the "Pokemon Go" Community Day events will most likely be scheduled between 3 PM and 6 PM. This upcoming exclusive Community event is not yet officially confirmed by Niantic Labs but expects to hear the announcement a few days before the scheduled event. During the event, you must make sure that you evolve your Pokemon during the active time window or to some, within an hour of the ending of the event.
During the "Pokemon Go" Community Day event, trainers will receive bonuses. This includes 1/4 Egg Hatch Distance and 3 Hour Lures. There will also be limited-time research, as revealed in the augmented reality game's code. According to the details, the upcoming Community Day will offer special Field Research tasks that will emphasize on the featured Pokemon.
Make sure that you claim your rewards and clear the space for this kind of quests if you want to see them. Most often, Niantic Labs does not announce or confirm the presence of Shinies during the "Pokemon Go" Community Day event. However, make sure to be always on the lookout for the shiny Ralts when you are hunting.
These pocket monsters have always been a part of the "Pokemon Go" Community Day event, so most likely they will also be there on August 3.
