Niantic always makes the final Community Day of the year a special event for Pokémon Go players, and the last one for 2020 is following that trend by including Pokémon featured over the last two years in previous iterations of the event.
On Dec. 12 and 13, players will be able to encounter every Pokémon that was featured as part of a Community Day event throughout the entirety of 2019 and 2020, adding up to a grand total of 22 different Pokémon.
You will encounter all of these Pokémon in different ways depending on which year they were featured in. The split will have all of the 2020 Community Day lineup appearing in the wild or as part of the two-kilometer egg pool and raid lineup and the 2019 Pokémon exclusively showing up in Eggs and raids.
The usual event bonuses also apply, with players getting double capture Stardust and halved egg hatch distance using Incubators during the event. Incense used during the event will last three hours instead of the usual one, too.
Here is the list of where you will be able to encounter every Pokémon during December’s Community Day.
