The Slowpoke Community Day is slated to be held on Saturday, March 18, 2023, with the event slowly coming online all around the world. It will commence at 2:00 pm local time and conclude at 5:00 pm local time, giving trainers across the world three hours to catch as many Slowpokes as they can.

Next up, the event-exclusive Timed Research will be available to players from 2:00 pm local time to 10:00 pm local time. The tasks and rewards are as follows:

  • Use 5 Berries to help catch Pokemon - 1x King's Rock

Furthermore, the March 2023 Pokemon GO Community Day will bring an event-exclusive Field Research task with a bevy of potential item drops that players can obtain:

  • Catch 3 Slowpoke - Slowpoke encounter, Galarian Slowpoke encounter, or 5x Great Ball, or 1x Golden Razz Berry, or 2x Ultra Ball, or 2x Pinap Berry, or 500 Stardust

As mentioned above, players will be able to engage in an event-exclusive Special Research story. Additionally, Niantic has added Slowpoke-themed avatar items and stickers to the in-game shop that players can obtain.

The Slowpoke Hat and Slowpoke Tail Shirt will be made available as the event comes online. Furthermore, Pokemon GO trainers will be able to get their hands on event-themed stickers by interacting with PokeStop disks, opening Gifts, and purchasing them from the in-game shop.

Additionally, players can encounter Slowpoke and Galarian Slowpoke in Four-Star Raid Battles from 5:00 pm local time to 10:00 pm local time. It should be mentioned that these battles will only be in-person and cannot be joined with Remote Raid Passes.

This boost will remain active for a duration of 30 minutes, with lucky players having a chance to catch Shiny Slowpoke and Shiny Galarian Slowpoke.
