Similar to the previous events, trainers will need a ticket to partake in the Hopip Community Day special research tasks. The ticket can be purchased from the Pokemon Go in-game store for US$1.00 once the classic day begins. By the end of this guide, you will learn everything about this event.

Pokemon Go Hoppip Community Day — Start Date & Time

The Hoppip Community Day event in Pokemon Go will commence on February 12, 2022, from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. local time. Players can enjoy a three-hour lure and grab the event bonuses during this time frame.

Trainers can avail of the following in-game bonuses that will be activated during the Hoppip Community Day event: 

  • 3× Catch Stardust
  • Incense activated during the event will last for three hours.
  • Lure Modules activated during the event will last for three hours.
  • Take a few snapshots during Community Day for a surprise!
  • Get up to three free Raid Passes from Gyms during the event and up to two hours after the event.
  • Chance for Skiploom to appear in Parks alongside Hoppip.
  • Bonus Hoppip XL Candy from Skiploom caught in Parks.

Apart from this, there’ll be a special one-time-purchase Community Day Box available for 1,280 PokéCoins, featuring 50 Ultra Balls, two Super Incubators, six Star Pieces, and an Elite Fast TM.

A bundle containing 30 Ultra Balls will be available in the shop at no cost. Be sure to pick it up during the event.

Will Shiny Hoppip appear during the event?

Yes, Niantic has confirmed that players will also encounter a Shiny Hoppip during the Hoppip Community Day.

Normally, the odds behind the appearance of any Shiny Pokemon is approximately 1 in 500. However, during this community day event, Shiny Hoppip might appear 1 in 25 times as per The Silph Road report.

So Trainers should definitely roam around a couple of hours if they always wanted to include a Shiny variant of Hoppip to their Pokemon collection.
