Get ready for the Ralts Community Day Classic event in Pokémon Go on January 25th! This event brings back the popular Psychic-type Pokémon, offering increased spawn rates from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM local time. Shiny Ralts will also be more common.
Evolving your Kirlia (Ralts' evolution) into either Gardevoir or Gallade will grant it the powerful Charged Attack, Synchronoise (80 power in Trainer Battles, Gyms, and Raids).
For an extra challenge and rewards, a special research story is available for purchase ($2.00 or equivalent). This research offers rewards including a Premium Battle Pass, a Rare Candy XL, and Ralts encounters with a Dual Destiny-themed Special Background.
Timed Research will also be available during the event, rewarding players with Sinnoh Stones and more Ralts encounters. A week-long Timed Research continues the fun after the event concludes, providing further chances to catch Ralts with a special background.
Field Research tasks will offer Stardust, Great Balls, and additional Ralts encounters. Event bonuses include a 1/4 hatch distance for Eggs and extended 3-hour durations for Lure Modules and Incense.
Don't forget to redeem available Pokémon Go codes for extra goodies! Two Community Day bundles will be in the in-game shop, and the Ultra Community Day Box (containing items like an Elite Charged TM and a Special Research ticket) is available on the Pokémon Go Web Store.
