The last community day in 2021 will take place on the 18th and 19th of December, 2021 from 11 AM to 5 PM local time. It will feature familiar faces from 2020 and 2021. Pokémon that have appeared in 2021 Community Day events will appear more frequently in the wild, while Pokémon that appeared in 2020 Community Day events will be hatching Eggs and appearing in raids. This will allow players who missed any Community Day to encounter the same Pokémon again.
Trainers will find it useful to stock up on Stardust and other items as the upcoming event has a lot to engage in. Niantic has planned to bid 2021 goodbye with a huge event.
