The next iteration of Pokémon Go Community Day events is here, with June’s Community Day featuring Deino and introducing some new bonuses that will carry over into future versions of the monthly event staple.
From 11am to 2pm local time on June 25, Deino will appear more frequently in the wild, with the Shiny variant of the Dragon/Dark-type also available for lucky players to encounter.
Throughout the event, and for up to two hours after it ends, players who manage to evolve Deino fully into a Hydreigon will gain access to the event-exclusive Charged Attack Brutal Swing. The event will also feature the usual 25 percent egg hatch distance for eggs in incubators, double Catch Candy, and three hour Incense and Lure Module duration.
Niantic has also added a new bonus that will take effect after the event ends. The bonus brings Zweilous to unique four-star raids that, when successfully cleared, will result in Deino appearing more frequently within a 300-meter radius around the gym that hosted the raid for 30 minutes. The Community Day Shiny encounter odds remain active during those 30 minutes, as well.
And, as always, a $1 event-exclusive Special Research story—Field Notes: Deino—is available for players to pick up if they want some extra content. Here are all of the research tasks and rewards for that if you do end up going Dragon hunting.
