Pokemon GO December Community Day 2022: All wild encounters and raid bosses

As 2022 draws to a close, Pokemon GO fans have one last Community Day to enjoy before stepping into the new year.

December's iteration of the special event is a gala affair with it being spread over the weekend and recapping all Community Day events from over the past two years. The featured Pokemon of the erstwhile events will make up for the wild encounters and raid bosses for the next two days.

December's special event will have the unique feature of a recap allows Pokemon GO trainers who earlier missed out on one or more of these in the past two years to make another attempt at catching those pocket monsters.

Unlike Spotlight Hours, Community Days not only feature a rare Pokemon in the spotlight but also offer added bonuses like Timed Research and featured attacks.

Without further ado, this article points to all the wild encounters and raid bosses for December Community Day 2022 in Pokemon GO.
