Pokémon Go Tynamo Community Day: July date and what to expect
It's going to be electric.
Pokémon Go's community days are great events if you're looking for a particular creature to catch. Each time, a specific Pokémon is set to appear at a much higher frequency than usual. Quite often they're quite rare, too.
The first community day was held in 2018, and the next one is less than a month away.
So you're probably wondering which Pokémon is out in abundance this time around. It was the legendary dragon Goodra last month, so there's big shoes to fill!
Let's take a look at July's Pokémon Go community day.
When is the Pokémon Go Tynamo Community Day? July dates and times
As implied in the name, the Pokémon Go Tynamo Community Day will only take place within one day. It's only a short amount of time, too, so it's easy to miss.
The event will take place on Sunday 21st July, from 2p.m. until 5p.m.
That's only three hours, so get it in your diary and don't miss it!
