Niantic is continuing to announce new events and content for Pokémon GO on a regular basis. Read on below to learn more:
Catch some Chansey and hatch some Happiny during this event filled with Special Research, bonuses, and more.
If you’re looking for a “chance” to catch a lot of pink Pokémon, you’re in luck—Pokémon GO’s February 2024 Community Day will feature the Egg Pokémon, Chansey. On Sunday, February 4, 2024, from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. local time, Chansey will appear more frequently in the wild. Lucky Trainers might even encounter a Shiny one! Evolve Chansey during the event or up to five hours afterward to get a Blissey that knows the Charged Attack Wild Charge.
Need any more egging on? Check out the following bonuses that you can enjoy during the event!
- 2× Candy for catching Pokémon.
- 1/4 Hatch Distance when Eggs are placed in Incubators during the event period.
- 2× chance for Trainers Level 31+ to receive Candy XL for catching Pokémon.
- Lure Modules activated during the event will last for three hours.
- Incense (excluding Daily Adventure Incense) activated during the event will last for three hours.

- One additional Special Trade can be made for a maximum of two for the day (from 2:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. on Community Day).
