Don't miss this weekend's Goomy Community Day in Pokémon GO on Sunday June 9th

Pokémon GO Community Day — Goomy
The Soft Tissue Pokémon Goomy is the featured Pokémon for Pokémon GO's Community Day for June 2024, which is being held this weekend on Sunday June 9th, from 2:00pm to 5:00pm local time. During this event, Goomy will be appearing more frequently in the wild, together with its Shiny variant. This will be immediately followed by unique Four-Star Raids against Sliggoo, which will run until 10:00pm local time.

When Trainers defeat the Sliggoo Raid Boss from these raids, Goomy will appear around the Gym that hosted the raid for 30 minutes. Trainers can only join these raids using Raid Passes and Premium Battle Passes. Remote Raid Passes cannot be used. Goomy appearing as a result of these raids will have the same odds of appearing as Shiny as during the main Community Day event. Please note that Trainers will not be able to use Remote Raid Passes to join these special Sliggoo raids.
