Bonus Raid Battles after Community Day

Sunday, July 17, 2022, from 2:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. local time

After the three-hour Community Day event ends, Trainers will be able to challenge unique four-star Raid Battles. Claiming victory in one of these raids will cause more Starly to appear around the Gym that hosted the raid for 30 minutes!

Please note that the Community Day bonuses listed above in the “Event bonuses” and “Bonuses for groups” sections only apply to the three-hour Community Day event period.

We’ve heard Trainer feedback that some people are unable to participate in the 3 hour Community Days due to other commitments. To help address this, during June Community Daythis month, Trainers will be able to work together to extend their Community Day experience by defeating a unique type of Four-Star Raid Battles that causes more Deino to appear for some time!

Please note, the Community Day Bonuses listed above will still only be in effect for the initial three hour period.

Four-star Raid Battles

Staravia will be appearing in four-star raids!

These Raids can only be accessed with Raid Passes and Premium Battle Passes. Remote Raid Passes cannot be used.

Staravia

Bonus for completing Four-star Raid Battles

Once you defeat Staravia in a four-star Raid Battle, Starly will begin to appear in a 300-meter radius around the Gym that hosted the raid for 30 minutes. If you’re lucky, you may encounter a Shiny one!*

* Starly that appear under these circumstances will have the same chance of appearing as a Shiny Pokémon as those that appear during July Community Day’s three-hour event period.

Stickers

You’ll be able to get event-themed stickers by spinning PokéStops, opening Gifts, and purchasing them from the in-game shop.
