Get ready to rock and load with the Pokémon Go May Community Day, as Alolan Geodude and its railgun of a final evolution begin appearing more frequently for players from 11am to 2pm local time on May 21.
As always, players will see an increased number of the featured Pokémon in the wild, with Shiny Alolan Geodude also being available as players encounter the Rock/Electric-type. And, for anyone who evolves an Alolan Geodude into an Alolan Golem, it will know the event-exclusive move Rollout.
Additionally, players will get triple Catch Stardust, double Catch Candy, and a 50 percent trade cost reduction. Incense and Lure Module durations will likewise be increased, running for a full three hours as per usual with Community Day events.
Players will also be able to purchase the $1 Community Day Special Research story: A Rocky Road, and complete event-exclusive Field Research to earn additional rewards.
Here are all of the research tasks and rewards for both sets, so you can knock them out before the event ends.
