As the Might and Mastery season in Pokémon Go approaches its epic conclusion, the spotlight shines on the Community Day Classic featuring the powerhouse, Machop. Mark your calendars for May 24th, from 2:00 to 5:00 pm local time, when this Superpower Pokémon will be more prevalent in the wild, giving players a golden opportunity to enhance their Fighting-type roster with this classic favorite.
If you've missed out on securing a robust Machamp or are eager to pursue the coveted green Shiny glow, this event is your chance. Machop will appear more frequently, and with a bit of luck, you might even encounter a Shiny variant in Pokémon Go.
Evolve a Machoke during the event window or up until May 31st at 10:00 pm local time, and you'll obtain a Machamp that knows the Charged Attack Payback. This Dark-type move packs a punch with 110 power in Trainer Battles and 95 power in raids and Gyms.
For those eager to dive deeper into the event, a Community Day exclusive Special Research story will be available for $1.99. This ticket offers a Premium Battle Pass, Rare Candy XL, bonus Machop encounters, and three Machop with a Seasonal Special Background.
In addition, the Timed Research provides further incentives to log in. Completing tasks post-event until May 31st will grant you a Machop encounter with a Might and Mastery-themed Special Background, along with enhanced Shiny odds. Remember, these tasks expire on May 31st. Don't miss out on using Pokémon Go codes to grab a bunch of freebies!
Event bonuses include 3x Catch Stardust, three-hour Lure Modules and Incense, and surprise photo encounters. Field Research and PokéStop Showcases will offer additional opportunities to earn Stardust, Great Balls, and Machop encounters with special backgrounds.
To cap it all off, the Pokémon Go Web Store will launch an Ultra Community Day Box for $1.99 starting May 14th, featuring two Rare Candies and a Special Research ticket.
