Pokemon GO Reveals Next Batch of Community Days

Pokemon GO developer Scopely Explore has revealed a list of multiple Community Day events that will take place within the game’s next season. During Community Day events, Pokemon GO puts a specific Pokemon in the spotlight, making it significantly easier to find. These events benefit players looking to farm Candy and Stardust, but the game also makes it much easier to find that Pokemon’s Shiny variant. For that reason, Community Days have become some of the most popular in-game events among players.

Pokemon GO‘s current season is Twilight Trails, which is set to come to an end on December 1. The game’s developers regularly tease the next theme ahead of time, often in the form of a trailer. These trailers offer a glimpse at some of the new Pokemon that will be added. Nothing has been revealed about the new season’s content just yet, but that should change as the end of Twilight Trails comes closer.

Community Days:

• Saturday, December 12 and Sunday, December 13, 2026
• Saturday, January 2, 2027 (Community Day Classic)
• Saturday, January 16, 2027
• Saturday, February 6, 2027

Other Dates:

• Saturday, December 5, 2026 (Max Battle Day)
• Saturday, December 19, 2026 (Raid Day)
• Saturday, December 26, 2026 (Hatch Day)
• Saturday, January 9, 2027 (Super Mega Raid Day)
• Saturday, January 23, 2027 (Max Battle Day)
• Saturday, January 30, 2027 (Super Mega Raid Day)
• Saturday, February 13, 2027 (Raid Day)

Pokemon GO‘s Next Community Day is on November 21, and it marks the last one set during Twilight Trails. Ahead of the new season, Scopely Explore has pulled back the dates for four Community Day events. This time around, all the events will take place on a Saturday, except for the event in December, which will take place across two days. The events are being held December 12 and 13, January 2, January 16, and February 6. The event on January 2 will be a Community Day Classic, which means players can expect to see a Pokemon that has already had a dedicated Community Day at some point in the past.

Scopely Explore has not announced which Pokemon will be featured on those dates. However, it’s very likely that December’s Community Day will feature all the Pokemon that had Community Day events in 2026. The December event is usually treated as an opportunity for players to seek out Pokemon that they might have missed during those events. The fact that December’s Community Day event takes place across two days basically confirms that the developers will continue that trend, though nothing has been officially announced.

In addition to the dates for the new Community Days, Scopely Explore also announced several other important dates. Two of these events are Super Mega Raid days on January 9 and January 30. Pokemon Legends: Z-A and its DLC added several Mega Evolutions, and Pokemon GO has slowly been adding these newcomers to the franchise. Mega Staraptor and Mega Chandelure were both added during Twilight Trails, with Mega Clefable on the way. However, there are still several more that have yet to receive that same treatment. It’s likely that a couple more will be introduced in Pokemon GO‘s next season. Since the new season will take place in the winter months, it’s possible players could see Ice-types like Mega Baxcalibur, Mega Froslass, or Mega Crabominable.

The new season of Pokemon GO will extend into 2027, which promises to be a big year for the franchise. Pokemon Winds and Waves arrive in 2027, beginning a new generation. It’s unclear at which point the games will be released on Nintendo Switch 2, but Pokemon GO players should expect some type of crossover. Pokemon Scarlet and Violet‘s Gimmighoul made a surprise cameo in Pokemon GO, debuting in the mobile game before showing up anywhere else. It’s possible something similar could happen in 2027 with Pokemon Winds and Waves.
