Pokémon Go December 2025 Community Day event guide

Pokémon Go's big December Community Day (or Community Weekend) event is taking place on Dec. 6 and 7 this year, with most perks running from 2-5 p.m. in your local time.

As per usual with these events, each day will specifically boost the spawns of half of the Pokémon during the event period. Outside of those hours, any of the Community Day Pokémon from this year can show up. It's a great time to catch up on any Community Days you may have missed throughout the year, as their shiny rate will be increased for this event.

Notably, one of the big changes for this year is that there will not be 2024 Community Day Pokémon in eggs. This year will only focus on Community Day Pokémon from 2025.

Below you can see the Pokémon Go December Community Day schedule, so you know what spawns will show up.

The following Pokémon will be focused spawns from 2-5 p.m. in your local time on Saturday, Dec. 6:
