Community Day returns with a fan favourite Fairy-type in Pokémon Go

9th April 2023

POKÉMON Go’s Spring into Spring event ends this week, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t anything to do.

April’s Community Day is this week, with a fan-favourite Fairy-type Pokémon in the spotlight.

Spring into Spring end on Monday.

The Go Battle League is a free-for-all with four different cups making an appearance.

Here’s everything that’s happening in Pokémon Go from April 10 to April 16.

Shellder takes the spotlight

This week’s Spotlight Hour will take place on Tuesday, April 11, 2023, from 6pm local time.

Shellder will be the target of Spotlight Hour, allowing players a great opportunity to get a Cloyster.

Both Shellder and Cloyster aren’t hugely common, so it’s a nice chance to get one on your team.

Any Pokémon transferred during this hour will also give you double candy, not just the Shellder.

Raid Hour will take place on Wednesday, April 12, 2023, from 6pm local time.

Taking over from Lugia, Landorus is the second Force of Nature to appear this year.

Like Thundurus, Landorus will also appear in its Incarnate Forme, which cannot be changed.

Incarnate Forme Landorus will appear in every gym during Raid Hour, and will be available in five-star raids for the rest of the week.

Mega Lopunny will be leaving Mega raids to be replaced by Mega Blastoise.

Go Battle League will change on Wednesday, April 12, 2023, at 9pm UK time.

All three main series cups, the Great, Ultra and Master Leagues will be available in the Go Battle League this week.

Alongside the three main cups, the Evolution Cup will also make an appearance.

This will have a maximum CP limit of 1.5k, and only mid-stage Pokémon will be able to enter.

Basically any Pokémon that have evolved once, and can still evolve, can take part.

The next Community Day will take place on Saturday, April 15, 2023, from 2pm, and 5pm local time.

Togetic is one of these mid-stage Pokémon and will be a great choice for the Evolution Cup.

It also evolves into Togekiss, which can be another great Pokémon in competitive battle.

The Togepi family can be quite rare, so plenty of people will want to join in for this one.
