"Pokémon GO" players do not want to miss the opportunity of catching the Eevee, the Evolution Pokémon. The upcoming Community Day Classic will return on July 5 and 6.
What's more, the nostalgic encounter won't just revolve around its evolutions. In fact, you can have another chance at catching its shiny version and acquiring special moves for each Eevelutions.
Save the Dates For Eevee Community Day Classic
As stated by Niantic in its recent "Pokémon GO" blog post, you can participate in the upcoming event on July 5 to 6 from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM local time.
During this time, Eevee will spawn more in the wild. Players also stand a greater chance of running into a Shiny Eevee, a long-time popular among collectors.
Exclusive Moves for All Eeveelutions
Catch or hatch an Eevee during the event, and it will learn the strong Charged Attack: Last Resort automatically. But the best reward is when you evolve Eevee into any of its eight evolutions before July 12 at 10:00 PM local time. Each one will get an exclusive move, including:
- Vaporeon – Scald
- Jolteon – Zap Cannon
- Flareon – Superpower
- Espeon – Shadow Ball
- Umbreon – Psychic
- Leafeon – Bullet Seed
- Glaceon – Water Pulse
- Sylveon – Psyshock
It should be noted that this is only available during this temporary event window, so we advise you to evolve Eevee wisely.
Evolve Quicker with Lower Requirements
To make it simpler, Niantic is also reviving limited-time evolution mechanics. PocketGamer compiled the mechanics for easy reading:
- Espeon/Umbreon: Take only 1 km with Eevee as your buddy before evolving
- Sylveon: Get only 7 hearts instead of 70 to evolve
