Spring may be in full bloom, but Pokémon Go is gearing up for a frosty adventure this April as Vanillite, the Fresh Snow Pokémon, becomes the star of the show during the next Community Day event. Taking place on April 27th from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM local time, Trainers can look forward to an icy surge of activity with Vanillite appearing far more often in the wild. Keep your eyes peeled—you might even spot the elusive Shiny version!

The real thrill comes when you evolve Vanillite into Vanilluxe. Do so during the event or within the post-event window (until May 4th), and it will learn the powerful Charged Attack Avalanche. In Trainer Battles, Avalanche delivers a hefty 90 power, while in Gyms and Raids, it strikes with 85 power—making Vanilluxe a formidable contender in competitive play.

For those eager to dive deeper into the chilly festivities, a Community Day Special Research ticket is available for just $2 USD. Completing the research tasks not only rewards you with multiple Vanillite encounters but also unlocks a special Might and Mastery-themed background for Vanillite, a Premium Battle Pass, Rare Candy XL, and other exclusive items.

There’s also Timed Research available throughout the following week, giving you another shot at catching a Vanillite with the unique event backdrop. Additionally, Field Research tasks will be infused with theme-based challenges, offering rewards like Stardust, Great Balls, and even more Vanillite sightings—including some with the special background.

As always, several bonuses will be active during the event to help you make the most of your time:

• Triple XP for every Pokémon caught
• Double Candy per catch
• Double Candy XL chance for Trainers level 31 and above
• Lure Modules and Incense last for 3 hours
• Discounts on trades

So bundle up, get outside, and enjoy the frosty fun of the Vanillite Community Day!
