All Pokémon Go: Wooper Community Day Muddy Buddy Special Research tasks and rewards

A great day for the Wooper enthusiasts.

November is blessing Pokémon Go players with a double dose of Community Day action, featuring both Wooper and its Gen IX friend, Paldean Wooper. While you’re out catching both Wooper forms, there will also be the Muddy Buddy Special Research available to earn rewards as you complete the tasks.

Wooper Community Day will take place on Nov. 5 from 2pm to 5pm local time, during which Wooper and Paldean Wooper will be popping up everywhere with increased spawn rates and more chances to run into a rare Shiny if luck is on your side.

Since this event marks the debut of Paldean Wooper and its evolution, Clodsire, you may want to take advantage of all the bonuses to train up your new Poison/Ground friend from Paldea. Evolving Paldean Wooper during the event (or up to five hours after) will get you a special Clodsire with the Charged Attack Megahorn while evolving the standard Wooper into Quagsire will give it the Charged Attack Aqua Tail.

After the initial event period, the fun will continue that same day with Wooper and Paldean Wooper four-star raids from 5pm to 10pm local time. Beat these raids to make even more of these adorable Pokémon appear in the area for 30 minutes. Also check out the Field Research and $1 Special Research story, Muddy Buddy, to earn even more rewards from this Community Day.
