Community Day
The Community Day in December 2021 will be particularly memorable because it will be the last of the year, and, as is customary, the Pokémon highlight of the event will not be a single Pokémon, but rather all of the Pokémon that have been highlighted during community days this year will appear with much greater frequency. In addition, Featured Pokémon will be accessible in Eggs and Raids at Community Day 2020 events.
