Niantic is bringing yet another Community Day for August to Pokemon GO. The Pokemon GO August Community Day features Eevee, an Evolution Pokémon. Unlike other Community Days, this one is a 2-two event. It’s a great chance for trainers to catch a Shiny Eevee(s) as the chances are high on Community Days. They can also evolve it to learn event-exclusive moves and take advantage of in-game bonuses; some stay for four days. Let’s break it down. So for you to get things ready, here is everything you need to know.
Date + Time
Saturday, August 14, 2021, and Sunday, August 15, 2021.
From 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM on each day [local time].
There are Other Bonuses and Event-exclusive moves that you can take advantage of in a four-day time frame. You’ll find it at the end of the article.
