Pokemon GO Poliwag Community Day July 2023: All Special Research tasks and rewards

With the Pokemon GO Poliwag Community Day July 2023 event coming online around the world based on the region's local time, trainers are eagerly waiting to get their hands on the Tadpole Pokemon and all its lucrative evolutions. The occasion will also feature plenty of event bonuses, featured attacks, and a Special Research questline for players to engage with.

Fans already saw two Community Day events in July 2023. The Classic iteration of the monthly event took place earlier in the month, featuring Squirtle. Various log-in issues surrounding that occasion forced Niantic to do a repeat event in the same month.

The Poliwag Community Day event is scheduled to be held on Sunday, July 30, 2023, from 2 pm local time to 5 pm local time.
