Pokemon Go Solosis Community Day guide (October 2025)

Pokemon Go’s October 2025 Community Day will feature Unova’s Cell ‘mon, Solosis! So, here’s all you need to know about the day, including the time, exclusive moves, Shiny availability, and more.

The Community Day is a monthly event in Pokemon Go that brings back creatures from previous events, with boosted wild spawns, increased Shiny odds, exclusive moves when evolved, and useful bonuses.

It is one of the most popular events in the Pokemon Go Calendar, alongside Spotlight Hours. But, despite it occurring on the weekend so that most players can get involved, it only lasts for three hours. So, here’s all you need to know to make the most of it!

When is the next Community Day in Pokemon Go?

As a monthly celebration, the next Pokemon Go Community Day event will take place in October, more specifically on Sunday, October 12, 2025, from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM local time.

Solosis, from Gen 5’s Unova region, will headline the event, giving trainers increased chances of coming across one in the wild during the announced timeframes.

Known as the Cell Pokemon, this Psychic-type creature and its evolutions (mainly its final stage) are must-haves for your collection!

Those who take advantage of the situation will be able to evolve Solosis into Duosion using 25 Candy. With 100 extra Candy, they can then turn Duosion into the extremely weird-looking Reuniclus.

Shiny odds

Solosis debuted its Shiny variant in 2023, so during its Community Day, and – as with every other headliner – it will have boosted Shiny odds for the duration of this event.

This means players can not only get a Shiny Solosis, but the complete family, as if evolved, it will turn into a Shiny Duosion and subsequently a Shiny Reuniclus.

Community Day exclusive moves

If a player evolves Solosis into Duosion and then Reuniclus during the event – or up until four hours after it – they’ll get a Reuniclus that knows the Fast Move Charm.

Event bonuses

The following event bonuses will be live during October’s event:

• x3 Stardust for catching Pokemon.
• x2 Candy for catching Pokemon.
• x2 chance for trainers (Level 31 or higher) to receive Candy XL from catching Pokemon.
• Lure Modules activated during the event will last for one hour and may attract the featured Pokemon.*
• Incense (excluding Daily Adventure Incense) activated during the event will last for three hours.
• Players who take a few snapshots will get a surprise!
• One additional Special Trade can be made for a maximum of three per day.*
• Trades will require 50% less Stardust.*

Bonuses marked with a ‘*’ will be active during the event from 2:00 PM until 9:00 PM local time. During this same time frame, Solosis will have a very high chance of appearing at PokeStops with active common Lure Modules. It will still have an increased chance of being Shiny and may even have a Special Background.

How to prepare for Pokemon Go’s Solosis Community Day

If you’re going to take part in a Community Day, there are a few things you can do to prepare and get the most out of the event:

• Purchase Incense to use on the day, as it will last longer than usual.
• Save any Lure Modules you have, as they will last for three hours during the event.
• Stock up on lots of Ultra Balls so you can catch plenty of the headline Pokemon.
• Transfer any unwanted Pokemon in advance, so you’ll have space for all the catching you’ll do.
• Check the bonuses that run during the event so you can take advantage of them.

List of all Pokemon Go Community Day headliners

Here are all of the past Pokemon Go Community Day headliners, as well as the exclusive moves they could learn when evolved:

2025

2024

2023

2022

2021

2020

2019

2018

You may notice that every December headliner is missing from this list. That’s because, in December, Niantic featured every Pokemon from the past year as headliners at the same time.

Alongside all of these Community Days, there have been a few Community Day Classics that bring back old headliners. The most recent had Eevee as the headliner.

That’s all there is to know about the Community Day in Pokemon Go. Stay up to date with other events like the Spotlight Hour schedule, and all of the Raid Bosses and Shadow Raid bosses available.
