In addition to the two Community Days in January Pokémon GO, niantic works on new special catches for the first weeks of the year. From January 19 to January 23, you will be able to capture the following creatures in the framework of Lunar New Year 2023: Ponyta, Magmar, Magikarp, Slugma, Numel, Combee, Buneary, Fennekin, and Bunnelby.
On the other hand, the first special capture of the Community Day of February has been announced. On the 5th of that month, from 2 to 5 in the afternoon, Noibat will appear more frequently and if you’re lucky you can find it in its shiny version.
Remember that you have until 7 pm to evolve it into Noivern and get the special move Thunder, which does 150 damage in trainer battles and 140 in gyms and raids.
“We are delighted to announce that Noibat, the Sonic Wave Pokémon, will be the highlight during the February Community Day!”, details the company in the presentation of the following event.
