When Is Eevee Community Day

When I was make new to Pokemon Become, I once accidentally took part in the kickoff Eevee Customs Mean solar day. While I didn't observe any shinies, I did manage to become a few new Pokedex entries. I never really thought though that there'd ever exist a 2d Community Day. Well, here I am, writing nearly another Eevee Community Day. Only goes to show that anything tin can happen.

Eevee and its Eeveelutions. Please ignore the giant Pikachu trying to murder things in the groundwork.

Still, this Community Day was different.

Two Days of Eevee

For some reason, this Community Day is in fact a Customs Day weekend. Nosotros become two 6-hour periods in which all spawns will be Eevee, with an increased chance of being shiny. Actually, I say that, the reason is actually pretty obvious. Eevee has a thou total of viii evolutions, and almost of those need extra work to evolve them. Umbreon in particular needs to be evolved at night, which is way outside normal Community Twenty-four hours hours. Weirdly, the bonus for this result is 1/4 distance on hatching eggs. Which doesn't really match up with Eevee at all.

At the aforementioned time, the $1 Pokemon GO inquiry isn't particularly amazing either. Sure, you go an Incubator and a Rocket Radar, but it's withal kinda lame. I suppose at least you are guaranteed 1 of each Eeveelution? Eh.

As a bonus though, a Community Day weekend non merely means more shinies, but more people can play. And that'southward ever a good thing. Well, it would be, if players weren't boycotting the game because of changes in Pokestop ranges.

New moves for all of the Eeveelutions

This time round, these Eeveelutions don't know Last Resort. While Eevee nevertheless gets Concluding Resort for this Customs Day, all its eeveelutions actually all new individual moves. Vaporeon gets Scald, Jolteon gets Zap Cannon and Flareon gets Super Power. Espeon gets Shadow Ball while Umbreon gets Psychic. Glaceon gets Water Pulse, Leafeon gets Bullet Seed and Sylveon gets Psyshock.

However, most of these are designed for apply in PvP. Coverage moves allow players to be more than flexible in the GO Boxing League. For PVE, all these Eeveelution moves just don't really cut it. However, the Eeveelutions practise make for budget Pokemon if you're only starting out or if y'all demand something a flake tankier to round off your squad. The Eeveelutions arer as well great budget Pokemon for Team Rocket fights, simply you don't need the Customs 24-hour interval moves on them.

Unfortunately, putting 2 moves on an Eevee is pretty pricey. Despite how common Eevee is these days, it still costs 75k stardust and 75 candy to unlock a second movement on any of them.

The fact that the Kanto Eevolutions are all random sucks

To make things a tad easier, the three Eeveelutions that require being buddies were made much easier. For the Community Weekend, Sylveon only needed seven hearts to evolve, and Umbreon and Espeon just needed to exist your buddy and evolved at the correct time of mean solar day. Supposedly, the Espeon/Umbreon thing is a bug that's been left for the event, but Niantic kept it anyhow. Information technology'southward really somewhat surprising because Niantic always fixes 'useful bugs' as presently as possible.

But the Kanto Pokemon are nevertheless random. You only take a 1/3 chance of getting the Pokemon y'all want. This doubly sucks because Flareon got a pretty good move, but Jolteon and Vaporeon didn't, and trying to fill up your shiny Pokedex with these three is literally downward to luck and nothing else.

I really wish they'd exercise something virtually this, even just for the Customs Day. The proper noun trick only works in one case ever, but this event would take been a peachy opportunity to change that. Heck, give us the stones you lot need in the games, or SOMETHING.

It'southward alright, I judge.

At the cease of the twenty-four hour period though, it's, well, just Eevee. A Pokemon that has appeared so many times over the years. While I enjoyed being able to have this result really slowly, it was nothing special. There will always exist more than Eevee events. And so don't feel too bad if you missed this one out.
