2024 Community Update
Trainers,
We’re excited to share a number of new benefits for attending community meetups, as well as updates to our Community Ambassador program!
Updates to the Community Ambassador Program
The Community Ambassador Program has been growing swiftly since its launch two years ago, welcoming 800 Trainers from over 30 countries into the program. Over 1.9 million players have checked into Campfire events this year, joining fellow Trainers in their communities to celebrate Pokémon. We believe in the incredible power that our communities can harness to do good, which is why we are working with our Community Ambassadors to hold charity events such as donation drives and park clean-ups across the globe during our November Community Day.
You can find out what your local community is planning by checking Campfire for your closest event, or look at applying to the program yourself!
To learn more about how to apply, visit our FAQ.
Special Check-in Rewards
Starting on November Community Day, Trainers who check-in via the Campfire app to a Community Ambassador or Club Campfire event will now receive Timed Research that is only for these sponsored community events. This Timed Research will allow you to choose a focus to match your interests—raids, battling, socializing, or catching—and it will include special Pokémon encounters and items to help you while playing.
You can now also earn an in-game medal by joining Community Ambassador events! Check in and play with your local community to earn the medal, then level it up by attending events.
Upcoming GMAX events on Oct 26th-27th and Oct 31st-Nov 1st will also reward you with 800 Max Particles for checking in and joining your community to take down these gigantic challenges!
Checking in to a Campfire event has never been easier with the new Campfire integration. By tapping the Campfire map in the top-right corner of your Pokémon GO map, you can find local meetups, check in to an event, and collect rewards.
Please be aware of your surroundings and follow guidelines from local health authorities when playing Pokémon GO. Upcoming events are subject to change. Be sure to follow us on social media, opt in to receiving push notifications, and subscribe to our emails to stay updated.
