Vanillite Stars in April 2025 Pokémon Go Community Day

As we approach the Spring season, Pokémon Go enthusiasts are in for a frosty surprise with the upcoming Community Day event on April 27th. From 2:00 to 5:00 pm local time, the Fresh Snow Pokémon, Vanillite, will be appearing more frequently in the wild, offering players a prime opportunity to catch this chilly critter. Keep your eyes peeled for the chance to encounter its Shiny variant, adding an extra layer of excitement to your hunt.

But the fun doesn't end with just catching Vanillite. If you evolve it into Vanilluxe during the event or up until May 4th, you'll unlock a special Charged Attack, Avalanche. This powerful move boasts 90 power in Trainer Battles and 85 power in Gyms and Raids, making Vanilluxe a formidable addition to your battle lineup.

For those looking to immerse themselves even further into the icy festivities, there's a Community Day Special Research ticket available for a mere $2. By completing the tasks, you'll not only encounter Vanillite with a unique Might and Mastery-themed special background but also enjoy extra Vanillite encounters, a Premium Battle Pass, Rare Candy XL, and more.

The fun extends beyond the event day with a Timed Research opportunity available throughout the following week, giving you another shot at catching Vanillite with the exclusive backdrop. Engage with the event-themed Field Research tasks to earn Stardust, Great Balls, and additional encounters with Vanillite. You may even stumble upon tasks that lead to a Vanillite featuring a special event background.

Throughout the event, various bonuses will be in effect to maximize your experience. You'll earn triple XP for catches, double Candy for each Pokémon caught, and Trainers level 31 and above will enjoy double the odds of receiving Candy XL. Lure Modules and Incense will last for three hours, and there will be special discounts on trading, making this Community Day a must-attend for any dedicated Pokémon Go player.
