Pokemon GO January Community Day Classic Pokemon Revealed

January's Community Day Classic: Ralts Returns!

Get ready for a Ralts-tastic Community Day Classic on January 25th, from 2 pm to 5 pm local time! This is your chance to catch the base form of Gardevoir, a top-tier Gen 3 Psychic-type Pokémon.

This recurring event, a fan favorite, offers a second chance to snag Pokémon from previous Community Days. Following Porygon, Bagon, Cyndaquil, and Beldum earlier in the year, Ralts takes center stage in January 2025.

Event Highlights:

• Increased Ralts Spawns: Encounter Ralts more frequently in the wild, with a chance to find a Shiny Ralts!
• Powerful Gardevoir/Gallade: Evolving Kirlia (Ralts' evolution) during the event (or within five hours afterward) yields a Gardevoir or Gallade knowing the Charged Attack Synchronoise (80 damage!).
• Event Bonuses: Enjoy extended Lure Module and Incense durations (3 hours each!), and a reduced egg hatching distance (1/4). Snap some photos for a surprise!

Special Event Offers:

• Special Research ($2): Includes a Premium Battle Pass, Rare Candy XL, and three Ralts encounters with seasonal backgrounds.
• Timed Research: Earn four Sinnoh Stones and a Ralts encounter.
• Continued Timed Research: More Ralts encounters with unique backgrounds.
• Field Research: Rewards include Stardust and Great Balls.
• New Showcases & Offers: Check out the new showcases and bundles in the in-game shop (480 and 1350 PokéCoin options) and the $4.99 Ultra Community Day Box in the Pokémon GO Web Store.

Ralts originally arrived in Pokémon GO in 2017 with the Hoenn region launch, making its Community Day debut in August 2019. This event adds to January's exciting lineup, including the return of Shadow Ho-Oh on Shadow Day and the anticipated Lunar New Year celebrations.
