The starters are back in rotation, with Tepig making an appearance as the featured Pokémon in Pokémon Go’s July Community Day,
This means on July 3, from the usual 11am to 5pm local time, players will be seeing a lot of the Fire Pig Pokémon, with an increased chance of encountering a Shiny Tepig, too.
Evolving a Pignite, Tepig’s second stage evolution, into an Emboar during the event will give it access to the powerful Fire-type attack Blast Burn. There will be a short grace period after the Community Day ends where players can still access Blast Burn too.
Throughout the event, players will have access to the Roasted Berries event-exclusive Special Research, which will cost $1 to unlock. If you plan to go all in and get the most out of the Tepig Community Day, here are all the tasks and rewards you can expect to see.
