The final Pokémon Go Community Day event of the year is taking place at the end of December, giving everyone the chance to celebrate. For those who might have missed previous Community Day events earlier this year, now’s a chance to make up for it.
Alongside the event is a Timed Research, the Community Day Evolution Extravaganza, and if you’re persistent with these tasks, you can get Pokémon with exclusive backgrounds. All the Pokémon featured as rewards are the ones from previous Community Day events this year, and you can evolve them to unlock their most powerful moves. You’ll want to act fast, though. Here’s what you need to know about how to complete the December Community Day Evolution Extravaganza tasks and rewards in Pokémon Go.
This Timed Research is available to all players who log into Pokémon Go during Dec. 21 and 22 for the December 2024 Community Day. This should be a relatively brief event for many players, and the Timed Research reflects that. However, it rewards several items that you’ll need if you want to use them to evolve certain Pokémon featured in these events, such as Goomy, or ones that use Unova stones.
On top of this Timed Research, there’s the Community Day Continued Timed Research December 2024, where you’ll have to catch a Pokémon on different days, and you’ll get a chance to catch one of the Pokémon featured in the 2024 Community Days.
If you want to get the most from this event, make sure to try catching the particular Pokémon you want to teach their Community Day move. They should have an increased chance to appear in the wild during the event from Dec. 21 to 22 in your local area. You can use a Lure on a Pokéstop or an Incense on your character while walking around. Should they reach their final form, they will learn this move automatically, and you can start using them in raids or against other Pokémon Go players.
