Pokemon GO Reveals September 2024 Community Day Pokemon

Highlights

  • September 2024 Community Day will feature Ponyta and Galarian Ponyta, with a chance to catch shiny versions of both.
  • Evolving Ponyta or Galarian Ponyta during the event will grant Rapidash or Galarian Rapidash with a powerful attack.
  • Players can expect bonuses like double Candy and triple Stardust, themed Field Research, new bundles, and a special box for sale.

As a seasoned Pokémon Go player with years of experience under my belt, I must say that September 2024 is shaping up to be an exciting month for our community! The announcement of Ponyta and Galarian Ponyta as the featured creatures for Community Day has me buzzing with anticipation.


As a dedicated Pokemon GO gamer, I’m thrilled to share that Niantic has revealed some exciting news for us! In September 2024, our Community Day event will be all about Ponyta and Galarian Ponyta. That’s right, we get to catch the fiery Kanto native and its regional variant from Hisui, Galarian Ponyta. The luckiest among us might even find these fantastic Pokemon in their shiny forms!

Niantic recently hinted at two Pokemon for September’s Community Day event, suggesting a double catch opportunity for players. Notably, this isn’t the first time they’ve done something like this for a Community Day. In March 2022, Sandshrew and its Alolan form were the featured Pokemon. Fast forward to 2023, and we had Slowpoke and Galarian Slowpoke in March, followed by Wooper and its Paldean variant in November.

During the September Community Day event on the 14th of September from 2 pm to 5 pm local time, Ponyta and Galarian Ponyta will become more common in the wild. If you evolve either Ponyta or Galarian Ponyta during this event or within five hours afterward, you’ll get a Rapidash or Galarian Rapidash that knows the Charged Attack “Wild Charge.” This move deals 90 damage in trainer battles and 100 damage in gyms and raids. To access a Special Research for this event, which costs $1.00 USD, you’ll need to be Friends at the Great Friend level or higher with someone who can gift it to you.
