If you have ever wanted to be best friends with a Slowpoke of any kind, now is your chance as Niantic runs out the next Pokémon Go Community Day—featuring Slowpoke and Galarian Slowpoke.
The event will run for its usual three hours from 2pm to 5pm local time on March 18, with the event-specific, four-star raids and bonuses set to run through 10pm.
This will be the first time players can obtain a Shiny Galarian Slowpoke, Slowbro, or Slowking in Pokémon Go. If you evolve a Slowpoke or Galarian Slowpoke or catch either of its evolutions during the event, all variants of Slowbro and Slowking will have access to the Charged Attack Surf.
