Vanillite Stars in April 2025 Pokémon Go Community Day

As we transition into the Spring season, Pokémon Go players are in for a frosty surprise in April with the spotlight on Vanillite, the Fresh Snow Pokémon, during the upcoming Community Day event. Mark your calendars for April 27th, from 2:00 to 5:00 pm local time, as Vanillite will be appearing more frequently in the wild. Keep your eyes peeled, as you might even encounter its elusive Shiny variant.

But the fun doesn't end with just catching Vanillite. Evolve it into Vanilluxe during the event or up until May 4th, and you'll unlock the powerful Charged Attack, Avalanche. This move boasts 90 power in Trainer Battles and 85 power in Gyms and Raids, making Vanilluxe a formidable addition to your battle lineup.

For those looking to dive deeper into the frosty festivities, a Community Day Special Research ticket is available for just $2. By completing the tasks, you'll encounter Vanillite with a unique Might and Mastery-themed special background, plus enjoy additional Vanillite encounters, a Premium Battle Pass, Rare Candy XL, and more exciting rewards.

There's also a Timed Research opportunity that extends through the following week, giving you another chance to catch Vanillite with the exclusive event backdrop. Additionally, event-themed Field Research tasks will offer opportunities to earn Stardust, Great Balls, and more encounters with Vanillite, including tasks that could lead to a Vanillite with a special event background.

Throughout the event, several bonuses will be active to maximize your experience. You'll earn triple XP for catches, double Candy for each Pokémon caught, and Trainers level 31 and above will have double the chances of receiving Candy XL. Lure Modules and Incense will last for three hours, and there will be discounts on trading, making this Community Day a must-attend for all Pokémon Go enthusiasts.
